cinema certainly not shy about letting
characters die in uncontrollable ways
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top ten
accidental movie deaths
for this list we’re taking a look at the
moments in film or characters meet their
makers unexpectedly and by accident well
it’s probably the way he would have
wanted to go what we’ve excluded scenes
with premeditated deaths and reasonable
explanations our focus is solely on the
unpredictability and randomness of
certain movie characters passing out
evil walking right out suck he looks
like he’s gonna walk it off he’s gonna
be fine
number 10 aim for the bushes the other
guy’s stupid is as stupid does uh Danson
are the rumors about you and Kim
Kardashian true no comment but yes this
appears to be the thinking in this
pivotal scene in which New York
detectives Highsmith and dance and
pursue a group of criminals
unfortunately the chase leads to a
rooftop and the criminals escape via an
easily dismantled zip line you thinking
what I’m thinking partner aim for the
bushes
Danson and Highsmith are of one mind and
what comes next though a bold leap off
the building the intent may have been to
safely land on the bushes below but it
doesn’t seem the detectives accounted
for aim or gravity for that matter cops
still argue to this day why Danson and
Highsmith jump maybe it was just pride
having survived so many brushes with
death
maybe the egos push them off I don’t
know that shit was crazy
number nine steamrolled Austin Powers
international man of mystery both got a
problem
random henchman four evil villains
typically have a low survival rate and
that’s primarily due to their own
ineptness watch out
this may be stretching the definition of
an accident but somehow it still feels
out of everyone’s control
while making a truly high-octane escape
time displays secret agent Austin Powers
and his partner Vanessa faced the issue
of dodging security guards one
particular guard can’t get away in time
and is brutally crushed by a slowly
moving steamroller we’re obliged to ask
how does security personnel lack such
basic survival instincts number eight
unfortunate bisection walk hard the
Dewey Cox story I challenge you to do
sir
sibling play fighting is nothing new and
yet we’re still surprised by this scenes
outcome Oh mad Paul gets when we play
with his machetes come on Dewey there’s
nothing wrong with real machete fighting
now I’m gone then again the prospect of
two brothers Dewey and his sibling Nate
playing around with their fathers
machete is certainly unusual the
sequence transitions from cute brotherly
combat to jaw-dropping body horror as
Dewey’s machete becomes unsheath and
strikes a mortal blow
that’s not the end of it though Nate
despite being halved is still alive
enough to make some humorous remarks
come Hey oh we sure listen to Paul
just remember the wrong kid died shall
not even have the bar that the top half
innate was after cut him in half so
you’re saying I’m less than a quarter of
the boy Nate was a wrong kid died number
seven
Godspeed Goblin spider-man it’s time to
die
chalk this one up to poor judgment at
the climax of spider-man the hero faces
his glider riding foe in a ruined
building this fly bricks shake and when
the dust settles the Green Goblin lies
on the ground at Spidey’s mercy
but he’s not done yet revealing his true
identity
goblin appeals to spider-man’s
sympathies while subtly commanding his
glider to strike thankfully fighting you
went to dodge oncoming projectiles we
can’t say the same about Green Goblin
sure is convenient how all spider-man’s
nemec’s get themselves killed huh number
six blood and wood chips Tucker and Dale
vs. evil are you guys go around gift
guide to wood chipper who take the big
guy Tucker & Dale vs. evil stars Alan
Tudyk and Tyler Labine as a pair of
hillbillies going up to their newly
bought cabin at the same time that a
group of teenagers goes camping Wow
Oh good-looking friends are here hi
after a series of misunderstandings one
of the teens attempts to rush Tucker and
instead flings himself headfirst into a
wood chipper
it’s grimly amusing to watch Tucker
struggle in vain to save the kid
considering how easily this madness
could have been avoided okay
while the Beehive chase packs quite the
punch this one is still the biggest
shocker when all of a sudden out of
nowhere these kids started killing
themselves all over my property up there
this one’s right here he dove headfirst
right into the wood chipper in a woody
right back there number five the present
happy gilmore man this is excellent all
right you got the spirit of a hockey
player and you had me so I figured why
fight it we sense gift-giving may
require a more delicate touch than this
returning from a successful day of golf
training our titular hero happy gilmore
is presented with a modified putter by
his mentor chubbs I got something for
you too well what happy being a
compassionate friend and student also
happens to have a gift for chubbs the
head of the alligator that took his
right hand
remember the Gator that got your hand
hey while it’s usually the thought that
counts chubbs is understandably
horrified and promptly falls backwards
out an open window to his death
number four freak gasoline fight
Zoolander sometimes people just don’t
think things through
in this 2001 comedy Ben Stiller stars as
a not so bright supermodel Derek
Zoolander living the high life with his
three friends during an excursion to a
gas station Zoolander’s friends begin
goofing around with the nearby materials
gravitating from squeegees to gas hoses
and all set to a wham soundtrack of
course
everything’s all well and good until
Azul and his friend Prince tries to
light up such a waste of human life and
all that gasoline you’ll never listen to
wake me up before you go-go the same way
again
number three traffic accident meet Joe
Black sure do you think so mm-hmm
I don’t know lightning could strike
black comedy can be tough to wrap one’s
head around especially when it comes so
randomly take this scene from 1998’s
meet Joe black for example oh I’ve gotta
go yeah listen did I say something wrong
no no no a young man played by Brad Pitt
gazes longingly into the distance while
crossing the street after meeting a girl
in a coffee shop Pitt’s character
manages to avoid one oncoming vehicle
but fails to predict the pair of cars
that subsequently run him down
it’s a scene worth gaping at though
whether it’s out of horror or amusement
is up to you
number two melting which The Wizard of
Oz Wow ring around the rosy atmosphere
it shorts but cathartic in our eyes
cornered by the guards of the Wicked
Witch Arkansas born heroine Dorothy Gale
and her assembled friends can only
huddle together in the face of evil my
wife to go will see the first three noma
for the witch gloats delivers threats
and even sets Dorothy’s friends the
Scarecrow on fire unfortunately for the
witch Dorothy uses a bucket of water to
put the Scarecrow out and splashing the
witch in the process in the course of a
few seconds the green faced source of
villainy melts into oblivion and with
her go our fears
before we unveil our top pick here are a
few honorable mentions long as we got
patches we got a shot
you ever seen that show cops I was
watching at one time there was this cop
on he was talking about about this
gunfight he had in the hallway with us
this guy right and he just unloaded on
this guy and nothing happy he didn’t hit
nothing number one I shot Marvin in the
face Pulp Fiction is freaky but it
happens in the realm of accidental
deaths this one might take the bloody
cake I mean that’s it for me from here
on in you consider my ass retire Jesus
Christ
Oh blasphemer goddamn it don’t do that
in the final segment of Quentin
Tarantino’s second feature film hitman
Vincent Vega and Jules Winnfield drive
through town with an informant Marvin
off and you tell someone who was in a
bathroom while discussing a miracle they
supposedly witnessed Vincent turns back
to seek Marvin’s opinion on the matter
and his gun suddenly discharges in
Marvin’s face you gotta have an opinion
I mean do you think that God came down
from heaven and stopped the resulting
bloody mess is horrifying though Vega
and Winfield’s reactions take the scene
from unexpected horror too morbid comedy
oh man I see some crazy-ass shit in my
turn but just chill out man I told you
was an action probably he went over a
bumper hit no motherfucking ball so do
you agree with our list what’s your
favorite accidental movie death
