villains: exist gravity: *imma ruin this kid’s whole career*

Disney Villains: The protagonists can't kill me Physics: So here is the thing....

The ironic thing about Clayton’s death is that throughout the film he was always mocking Tarzan as a “Savage” while pushing him to be a “Man”. Yet in his final moments it was Tarzan who was the real man for still trying to help Clayton, while Clayton himself was screaming like a savage beyond help

7:49 I still think Facilier’s death is the most disturbing. This guy has demons watching his every move, always breathing down his neck, and the literal second he screws up he’s dragged to hell, screaming and begging for his life.

Nobody: Disney: *If you wanna kill someone, yeet them from the cliff.*

All disney villains: Fall to their deaths Scar: Survived fall and gets rekt by hyenas

5:05 Hearing Tarzan's voice when he said "Clayton don't!" still gives me chills...

dr. facillier’s death is just… so incredible. it’s disturbing, satisfying, ironic, and a whole ass bop. homeboy literally gets dragged to hell all because of his own actions and ego. the way it was executed was absolutely perfect. the way he immediately realises what’s about to happen and starts pleading with the friends to give him more time… it’s chilling yet so satisfying and fitting for him. simply brilliant.

About 95% of these villains: “I fear no man. but that thing…” *cliff* “It scares me.”

Scar promised the hyenas wouldn’t go hungry. The hyenas ensured he delivered.

Bill Sykes' death is very underrated, not only it's one of the most realistic ones (Besides Clayton's) but also the fact of instead of screaming "NOOOOOO" like most villains when defeated, he just looks at the train and goes like "Welp, I'm dead"

Frolo’s death is the perfect definition of dramatic irony because in the end he was right: “And the Lord shall cast down the Wicked into the eternal Lake of Fire!” And that’s exactly what the Lord did in the end.

Almost every Disney villain: dies through falling. Emperor's new groove: Random trampoline saves villain from death from falling.

_As a kid I never realized how fu**ing gruesome some of these deaths are_

3:10 mauled to death by hyenas. One of the worst things about it is that they don’t wait until Scar is dead to start feasting, so it’s also possible for Scar to’ve been eaten alive while being mauled

i know gravity falls isn’t a traditional disney classic, but i’m happy it was included. bill’s death never ceases to give me chills. the entire premise of stan giving up all his memories to defeat him makes me tear up every time! alex hirsch truly is a genius.

All Disney villains: **Falls to their death** Scroop: **floats to his death**

I love how ironically enough, Disney has some of the most messed up and violent villain deaths I have ever seen. Without any blood they manage to be creepy.

3:17 god i got chills frollo has his own tier of evilness, nothing can compete he’s straight up evil .. he doesn’t have powers like Ursula or jafar, he’s just a normal person. He can exist in real life.

Frollo: he shall smite the wicked and plunge them into the fiery pit God: well, you heard the man.

No one makes a crater in the ground like Gaston.

I just love how ironic Frollo's last words are.

I still can't get over the fact that Gothel was killed by a freaking chameleon

CLAYTON'S DEATH SCENE ON TARZAN IS HORRIFY.

Eaten Alive, Burned, Turned to Dust, Run over, Electrocuted, Fell, Hanged, Punched, Drowned, Stabbed, Crushed, Blown up, Impaled, Froze, Ripped up, and Dragged to Hell by Angry Voo-Doo Gods. Damn Disney scares me sometimes.

Clayton, Facilier, and Scar stuck in my mind for the longest time as a little kid. Being hanged, getting dragged into hell, and being eaten alive… Disney may not show blood, but they sure don’t pack their punches lol

What I find interesting is that most of these villains were the architects of their own destruction. Really sends the message home that if you succumb to evil, it will consume you.

I love how there are all these harrowing death scenes, and then there’s just a dinosaur throwing a stick at a bird at 9:16

Fun Fact: Gaston was originally supposed to survive the fall, shout "if I can't have Belle, no one can", then he was mauled by the wolves. They cut this due to its brutality. They later reused this idea for Scar's death in the Lion King. edit: To everyone saying about the skulls, I know that, but one can theorize. I didn't say it was canon. I was just stating their original plan for his death, or lack thereof, as well as an opinion from the original cast.

I love how the Horned King’s death is literally like those horrifying 80’s horror movie deaths where it’s some semi-quick and brutal death of a character before they disappear into whatever evil had killed them (like Nancy’s Mom in Nightmare on Elm Street), without any trace or evidence of their previous existence.

Syndrome’s cape in the engine death is just beautiful, sweet poetic justice. Also, the way Tarzan scrambles to keep Clayton from sabotaging himself and the way it’s like… knife falls, Tarzan falls, Clayton’s silhouette in succession. The animation is incredible in that sequence. The impact is huge.

Almost everyone: Falls to their death Ursula: Gets frickin impaled holy crap

Zira: death scene considered "too dark" Dr Faciler: literally dragged kicking and screaming to hell

Clayton’s death is without question the most horrific and terrifying death in all of Disney.

Dr. Facillier had the worst fate of all, seeing how he is dragged into what can be hell in such horrific fashion. The first disney scene that scared me as a kid.

The Tarzan one is by far the most gruesome. The fact that you see the shadow of his body hanging as the lightning flashes is haunting.

It’s so horrifying to see Clayton die in Tarzan film

*I think y'all forget how brutal Syndromes death was. I mean other than Clayton's. He has the most brutal and possibly the most painful death in Disney history*

My favourite and the death that most traumed me as a kid was Facilier’s death. And personally I think they made visually beautiful such a tetric scene it’s amazing

Most Disney villains: Die a gruesome death. Pteranadon guy: *bonk*

My favorite thing about Syndromes death scene is the multiple layers of irony to it. Obviously the cape getting caught in the turbine is what most people think about, but there’s another detail. What gets Syndrome caught in the turbine in the first place is Bob throwing the car that Syndrome GAVE him. Syndrome was the architect of his own demise from every angle.

I Like When Villains Suffer.. THE SIGHTS OF HELL BRING ITS VIEWERS BACK IN.

Heroes dont kill Disney villains. *Gravity does.*

0:15 the fact the vultures were smiling, knowing that had a meal is honestly dark.

Fun fact: scar’s death was originally meant for Gaston. When he fell into the gorge he survived but got attacked by the wolves. But then, they changed it, and seeing how it played out for Scar, we can see why.

I find Zira's death very ironic because she was so eager for revenge and died the same way Scar killed Mufasa except someone actually tried helping her but refused because it was by "an enemy" so she met the fate that Scar dished out

The fact that some of these deaths are so violent and creepy but as a kid i didn’t notice the intensity of the scene while now it really does hit me

3:28 The gargoyle animated itself infront of Frollo because these were placed on churches and cathedrals to scare off demons and evil spirits. This Gargoyle came to life specifically to scare off Frodo. Also shoutout to the creativity of Mother Gothelle's death who decomposed midair so fast she got reduced to dust before hitting the ground.

most villains: falls, crushed or stabbed good dinosuar villain: *stick is thrown at their head*

Not gonna lie Gaston’s death at 2:18 cracks me up how he screamed like a little girl as he was falling 🤣😆😂. And then Scar’s death also cracks me up too 💀🤣😆

Writer: So, how should we kill the villa-- Disney: Falls to his death. Writer: But how about-- Disney: He falls to his death. Writer: But maybe-- Disney: He. Falls. To. His. DEATH.

Yeah I also noticed Disney never wants the main character to defeat the villain, but some other person/force of nature.(typically gravity) Aladdin is one exception I can think of where Aladdin's cunning tricked Jafar into trapping himself.

I only realized only now that the birds watching with a sinister smile as the evil witch in Snow White falls to her death is that she's now a free meal for them to eat.

Frollo dying from what is essentially an act of God will always be poetic to me

Back when villains actually died instead of being banished into the shadow realm or whatever.

In Zira's death scene, anyone else ever notice the weird editing, and how she seems to be smiling as she falls to her death? Well, you see, the original scene, which very, VERY nearly made it into the final cut, played out like this: Zira starts slipping, Kiara offers to pull her back up, and Zira seems to consider it...before snarling out a firm refusal and throwing herself off the rocks, laughing all the way down to the raging water. Yeah, her expression makes a lot more sense now, doesn't it? Why the sloppy cuts and obvious replacement of her laughter with an unfitting scream? Apparently this was considered "too dark" by the company that, the very next year, gave us a movie where the main villain ends up accidentally hanging himself AND WE'RE SHOWN HIS CORPSE'S SHADOW TO DRIVE IT HOME.

Ironically, despite most of the villains dying from gravity, the main antagonist of *Gravity* Falls doesn't plummet to his death.

What gets me about Clayton/Tarzan Main Villian is that most of the time the heroes forget about the Villain as soon as they witness their death and it didn’t seem like Tarzan buried him or anything. He just left his body left to hang and flies and stuff to get to it and his body slowly decaying and stinking.

Most Disney deaths are just I've fallen and I can't get up

I love it how if a main character falls down a waterfall they don’t die or get hurt. However if a villain falls down they splat into a million pieces. Edit: momma im famous

The little toy soldier scene basically went like this, Jack in the box: dies Music: H A P P Y M U S I C

Some deaths even now look well thought out and spectacular🖤

"And He shall smite the wicked and plunge them into the fiery pit!" He shall, indeed.

4:31 The reason Zira is smiling after she falls, is because after Kiara says “I’ll help you.” Zira originally said “Never!” and killed herself.

Did they use the same scream for the evil queen and maleficent ?

jesus the death from up is so quiet it just makes your heart drop. he doesn’t even get a chance to scream, he’s just left in pure shock.

The worst death that I didnt understand until I was older was Clayton's death. It was very gruesome and somehow well hidden

Also , Disney likes to make their villains fall.

Edna said NO CAPES and she gave plenty of reasons why

The world has lost so much high art. These animations are further proof. The earlier one’s are just gorgeous.

It’s amazing that the the Queens death from snowy white was done in the 30s. It has to be the most iconic of all. Maybe not the most brutal. But the most iconic.

"I've won!" _Professor Ratigan's last words before he falls to his death._

I always thought it was interesting how in the hunchback, Frollo clings to a gargoyle who comes alive as he falls. Gargoyles were originally made and added to buildings due to the superstition that they would act as guardians and protectors to the places and buildings they were build for...so for it to come alive at the sight of Frollo it really speaks to how far he has fallen...no pun intended

That was a lot of childhood memories packed into one video

Man, those scenes are so smooth

Fun fact: Zira's death was intended to be different. Originally, she was going to intentionally let go of the cliff face, but this was changed because suicide is too heavy a topic for a Disney film. The original death was fully-animated and voiced, but as you can see, was edited rather sloppily.

Like 80% of the villain end up plummet to their death

I love that Lewis is just like, "well, bye." after Doris dies.💙❤

Oogie Boogie's death made me laugh hysterically then gave me nightmares in the space of a couple seconds! That's incredible!

Clayton's is so grim, and I'm pretty sure his hanging shadow is a static image being moved around, not redrawn, which makes it look SO much more eerie

*“AND THEN ALONG CAME ZEUS!”* 0:05

Watching this just makes me realize how many villains died to either falling from a high place, being eaten alive or falling down a waterfall

I love how this is suprisingly refreshing.

There's something... Simple about Charles' death at 7:36 that makes it the one that sticks with me the most. Sure most other deaths on here where the villain falls to their doom are more gruesome and dramatic like Frollo's or Clayton's, with over the top screams, striking visuals, and bombastic music, but Charles' overall simplic fall just makes it more unsettling to me. He just... Plummets. No real dramatic music, no hearing him scream until he's finally dead, just a quick shout, a quick music chord, and he's gone. The quickness of it all also just sells it I feel. It feels less like a triumphant moment of the villain being defeated and more of a "This didn't have to end this way" feeling, I guess. Also the Shadow Man's death from TP&TF is still the best one overall. Literally gets dragged to hell by voodoo dolls. It's so visually amazing and disturbing.

4:14 get off the roof GET OFF THE ROOF That’s too much of a mood lmao

Great to see "The Black Cauldron" on the list tho technically you could have lengthened it to include the part where the army being sucked back in as well and the little Goblin guy

No one's slick as Gaston, No one's quick as Gaston, No one falls from the castle and dies like Gaston.

Note to self: once villainous scheme is underway, stay on the ground floor.

6:55 This is the most horrifying death on here. He isn't going to plummet into anything, he's just going to be trapped, hurtling through space until he starves to death. And being an insect-type creature, that could potentially take _months._ He isn't screaming at his _impending_ death, he's screaming knowing that death is a long, torturous distance away. At least Mr Arrow got spaghettified into a black hole Edit: I suppose Facilier might have it worse, being tortured by voodoo demons is probably worse.

4:31 Me when I miss a jump from a ledge in a game.

I like how the protagonist is remorseful in most of these scenes, and the villains bring about their own end. Then there's the Good Dinosaur, who mows them down in cold blood as they try to flee.

The Evil Queen: falls due to lightning-induced rockslide, then gets crushed by giant boulder. later eaten by vultures? Maleficent: Stabbed in heart by Prince Phillip, falls, evaporates like Obi-Wan in Episode 4 leaving only her cloak behind Some bear (???) in Fox and the Hound: Was a massive idiot and destroyed the one thing keeping it from falling to its death The Horned King: Literally torn to pieces ON SCREEN and promptly dragged screaming into The Black Cauldron, traumatizing every small child in the audience Ratigan: After losing his balance thanks to the chiming of Big Ben, he falls to his death, undoubtedly staining some poor Londoner's shoes at the bottom Bill Sykes: Hit by a train, ruining many an evening commute Ursula: Stabbed by the bow of a ship, proving that making yourself a massive target is a terrible evil scheme McLeach: "Don't tell me: We're about to go over a waterfall." "Yep." "Sharp rocks at the bottom?" "Most likely." "Bring it on." Gaston: Karma'd by gravity Oogie Boogie: Revealed to be a disgusting writing mass of insects, which promptly falls apart and gets cooked. One escapes, but is mercilessly squished by--who'd'a thunk?--Santa Jafar: Electrocuted??? then explodes into a mass of red sparkles Scar: Betrayed by his hyena henchmen and eaten alive Frollo: "And He shall smite the wicked and plunge them into the fiery pit!" Well...he wasn't wrong Maestro Forte: "Help! I've fallen and I can't get up!" Shan Yu: Blown to smithereens in a spectacular fireworks display Zira: Originally a dramatic suicide, clumsily edited into an embarrassing accidental fall Hopper: Eaten alive by adorable baby birds. Isn't nature beautiful? Sabor: Stabbed to death off-screen by Tarzan Clayton: Accidentally hanged by vines Some jack-in-the-box from a Nutcracker cartoon: Incinerated while unfitting music plays Skinnier Ursula?: I'm not counting that as a death, her eyes are still moving Carnotaurus: Falls...man, that sure seems to happen a lot Helga Sinclair: Betrayed by her boss and thrown to her death, but not before getting to look like a badass one more time Rourke: Some magic stuff turns him to stone/crystal? and he's shredded by a fan Scroop: Karma'd by the vacuum of space Syndrome: Should've taken Edna's philosophy of "NO CAPES!" to heart DOR15: Suffered the ultimate time travel death -- retroactively never being born (or in this case, invented) Charles Muntz: Didn't grab enough balloons Dr. Facilier: Dragged kicking, screaming, and begging for his life into an eternity of torture at the hands of his so-called "friends" Mother Gothel: Turbo-aged into a pile of dust King Candy/Turbo: Went into the light, both figuratively and literally Mordu: Crushed to death by a piece of Stonehenge? The pterodactyl in Pixar's biggest box office flop: Wreckt by a branch GIFfany: Melted in a pizza oven at a knock-off Chuck E Cheese Bill Cipher: Punched in the eye by Stan Motherfuckin' Pines, erased from reality

Lots of these are so satisfying, but the way Syke's gets absoluted deleted has always stuck with me for all my life.

The death I like the most is Clayton's - especially as Tarzan saw the danger and tried to warn him only for Clayton to be to lost in rage to listen - as it was his own actions that caused his death though it would have been mercifully quick as the vine going taught like that would have snapped his neck killing him instantly.

This has only brought to my attention just how *absolutely horrifying* Disney villain deaths are. Yes, most of them die from a massive fall. While relatively tame compared to others, if anyone were to find their bodies, they would most likely be flattened or maybe even in pieces. There's also a chance that they never actually reach the bottom. There's a possibility that on the way down they got impaled by a jagged rock or something. Then you've got deaths like Ursula who was impaled, Scar who was mauled to death and possibly eaten by hyenas, Facilier who was literally dragged down to Hell, Zira who drowned, Frollo who not only fell from the top of a church but fell into a pit of fire, Clayton who accidentally hung himself from vines (most likely his neck was broken from the force of the vines very abruptly stopping his very long fall), Syndrome who was ripped to shreds from the propeller of a plane, the list goes on. Then ofc you've got possibly the most tame deaths like Mother Gothel who turned to dust. Disney has a knack for villain deaths to very incredibly violent, messy, and terrifying, all without showing gore or anything like that.

4:40 The most adorable death scene
