How is the last one death?

I suppose being stuck at the bridge prevents you from completing your quest, similar to the very first clip or the clip where the lizardmen get you. In each case, although you're not strictly dead, the game gives you a "You have died" screen.

Anybody else miss the awesome deaths in video games? XD

Great compilation!

This was a super rare game in the arcade, I only saw it once but heard of it on other systems.

Some of these are quite morbid, but good stuff. Thanks!

How does a magical sword betray its wielder?

@3:00 Those are some benign plants. 2 seconds later, those plants slice him into pieces. As they say, looks are deceiving.

Oh my GOD! 0:47 has to be one of the most frightening death scenes ever! (terrified shiver) blehhhh...

[vincentvalentine01]

That gatekeeper is a fucker.

[Ryuukazi]

Did he just use that morning star and bash himself?

You are missing the death from the black wizard near the beginning of the game. He can weaken you and he can also kill you if already weakened.

0:16 -- So, this king just throws any visitors in jail? Talk about xenophobic.

0:28 -- Too bad Thayer doesn't have the Hookshot and the Master Sword.

0:36 -- Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice!

0:42 -- Into the River Styx he goes!

0:48 -- "Uhhhhhh -- *muffled* uhhhhh -- *normal* uhhhhhh --" *skin and flesh dissolve, leaving skeleton* "Hi!"

0:58 -- "Don't leave us! We like you!"

1:03 -- A Blue Meanie! Oh, wait. That's Thayer.

1:13 -- Did the Amazons just happen to have those rocks?
