20 Idiotic Decisions Made By Marvel Film Characters
14. Getting Drunk Wearing Iron Man Armour (Iron Man 2)
In Iron Man 2, the palladium core in the arc reactor that keeps Tony Stark alive (and powers his armour) is slowly beginning to poison him. Unable to find a substitute - and becoming increasingly lacking in hope regarding the possibility of doing so - and choosing not to tell anyone about his condition, he starts to become very reckless. At what he believes is his final birthday party, he gets extremely drunk whilst wearing his Mark IV armour - an extremely risky and idiotic decision, given the fire-power that the thing possessed - and this angers his friend James Rhodes. As a result, Rhodey dons the Mark II prototype armour and tries to restrain Stark. The fight ends in a stalemate - but not before making a grand mess and endangering the people around them.
