Did Gandalf actually die when he fell into that big pit?

yes reincarnated, when he talks to pippin in the last film he tells him a bit about it basically about dieing and what happens and death not being the end of it all, you obviously havent watched it as many times as me ;)

Odin had to slay the ice giant Ymir. I forget why, but Im sure the reasoning was Cosmic. Oh, yeah, Odin was an Anscestor, so the 'Odin' was the diety that Odin eclipsed. Ymir's body got broken up and various pieces become the earth, heavens, underworld, and Starbucks. Maggots formed from the flesh. This was back in the days of spontaneous generation. Odin turned the maggots into the humans of today. The humans flourished, created civilization and all that stuff. Eventually Ragnarok came along. All the gods were engaged in a war of Good vs. Evil. Their battle was long and very violent. All of the gods were killed in the battle and all life on earth was reduced to two humans who took shelter in a hollow tree. (Hail Holde). Talk about bottle-necks!\nPoop.\nI can prove it because it was written in a Holy Book, and that makes it proof, right?

I've read that the stones were sung into place by magical dwarves.\nReally, it's no more absurd than some of the other theories out there.

He dies and loses a life. Maybe it's a bottomless pit or a hole with spikes at the bottom.

I believe that the person on the horse died while in combat.  It is sugnificant however, one leg down was due to an injury caused from combat and both on the ground....Don't recall, will get back to you on that~!Died of natural causes (panzy)

He is believed to have been nine years old {some say as young as 8} when he became king.  He was only king for about 10 years, and died at the age of 18.  The cause of death is still unknown, some believe it was murder, but many say the damage done to his head {some thought he had his head broken} wouldn't have caused his death.  Another thought is that he had a badly broken leg shortly before his death, it is thought that it might have got infected and caused his death.  The last link I provided is what they think Tut looked like by doing graphs of his skull.

No, he doesn't. I'm pretty sure he dies in the beginning of the Odyssey, or else his death is told of there. Paris did shoot him through the heel, but it is sometimes thought that the arrow was guided by Apollo. Achilles death isn't really a huge concern in the Iliad. The main theme is the choice he makes to obtain glory, and pay the price of death, and his coming to terms with the death of Patroklos, and his compassionate treatment of Priam.

He was killed in battle by Xerxe's army at Thermopylae.\n\nHe held off vastly superior forces for 3 days before being overrun.

Given enough time, we tend to tear down our hero's who live to long. Both men died while at there peak, and that adds to there legend. if they were still alive, there would have been scandals, and opposition, and they'd probably be just another set of pundits on CNN and Fox news.

it gives the answer at the end of the video!  it's all about muscle control (tightening the stomach muscles before impact) and breath control (breathing out to minimize the force of the impact).\n\nHoudini used to do it all the time.  that's how he died, in fact, when someone hit him in the stomach when he wasn't ready to take the blow.

No he didn't. He is currently traveling with Sesshomaru in the manga but I think he might be killed in the future because the shard in his back was purified by Kikyo and that shard might be the key to killing Naraku.

Though there is not an exact date, he must have died sometime between 1230 bc and 1180 bc, or at least that is when historians and archeologist believe the real Trojan war took place. Assuming Homers retelling of the war was somewhat correct that Achilles did perish there. Sorry I can not give an exact date, but very interesting question.

Judas went off to hang himself, that much is true. But one account goes into more detail than that. It shows that in the course of hanging himself, the branch that he hung himself from broke, and he fell down a cliff and was killed on the rocks below. So, it was actually only in one way that he died. One account just gave further details of it than the other.

I don't think it was the real Sephiroth. It was the remnants of him from the Jenova cells in the materia that the guy stole from Rufus. That and the fact that the materia was damaged and a lot of it was lost during the battle between that bloke (can't remember his name) and Rufus as they fell from the building, so the guy that used it didn't get the full effect.

from what ive heard titanic sink because the maker of it boasted that due to its magnificients make, even God cant sink it. Thou shall not test God.\n\n\nWhen the Titanic struck the iceberg, six of its 16 watertight compartments were damaged. The ship started taking on water in the bow through openings about 20 feet below the water line. \nAs the liner nosed down, water flooded compartments one after another and the ship's stern began rising out of the water. \n As the stern rose ever higher, the stress amidships was more than the vessel could bear. It broke apart just forward of the third funnel. The bow began to sink. \nWith the bow gone, the stern temporarily settled back to nearly level. The stern then rapidly flooded and rose out of the water, pivoting on the surface. It held that vertical position about a minute and then slowly slipped beneath the surface. \nThe bow section sank gently and plowed into the mud. The stern's impact was more traumatic: when it hit bottom, it buried itself some 50 feet, crumpling the steel hull.

She didn't stab herself or eat poisoned berries. Arwen simply lost the will to live after Aragorn died (they did have a long life together). She bid her children goodbye and faded away as there were no ships to Valinor to take her to the Elves.
