10 Movie Badasses Who Should Definitely Be Dead By Now

6. Alan Grant

jurassic park Even if we ignore the inherent danger of running around an island inhabited by genetically engineered dinosaurs, Alan Grant did pretty well for himself surviving the events of Jurassic Park. After ducking out of part two, he returned for the third film, and found himself in his most perilous, seemingly inescapable situation yet. Surrounded by a gang of velocirator, it seemed like it might finally be curtains for the famous scientist, but of course, Grant, as ever, had a plan. Now, we shouldn't be questioning logic too much in a film that thinks a mobile phone can be heard from within the stomach lining of a T-Rex, but isn't it awfully convenient that the raptors manage to understand Grant's invitation to trade the dino eggs he's carrying for his life? In reality, even if they understood Grant, they would have got their eggs back and then promptly feasted on Grant's corpse; there's no way he could've plausibly escaped this situation.
