20 Things You Somehow Missed In Star Wars: Episode VI - Return Of The Jedi
20. Yoda Is The Only Jedi To Die Of Natural Causes On-Screen
It's a dangerous ol' life sitting on the light side of the Force, you know.
Over the years, the likes of Obi-Wan Kenobi, Qui-Gon Jinn, Luke Skywalker, and many more have either sacrificed themselves to help protect a hopeful future or have simply been cut down by the forces of evil in the galaxy on-screen.
In fact, pretty much EVERY Jedi ever to pop up in a Star Wars movie has found themselves passing over to the other side after being killed or sacrificing themselves at one point or another. All except one.
And said only moment of a Jedi passing away due to natural causes comes during Return of the Jedi as a rather ill Master Yoda eventually pops his clogs before Luke Skywalker after living to the ripe old age of 900.
After taking a similar amount of time to squeeze out his final few lines, of course.
