Cool Videos: The Sean Bean death reel

Last Updated on August 5, 2021

Spoiler alert, if you’re watching anything with Sean Bean in it, there’s an incredibly good chance he’s going to die.

He’s bit the bullet more times than almost anyone in Hollywood, and Pajiba’a Harry Hanrahan set out to show just how often that has actually happened. The video is a requiem for the often killed Bean, set to the soothing melodies of the Dead Island trailer we all watched fifty times.
