TheLines: The following, ironically loaded exchange...
John McClane: You'd have made a pretty good cowboy yourself, Hans. Hans Gruber: Oh, yes. What was it you said to me before? "Yippie-ki-yay, motherf*cker."
How He Dies: The archetypal villain tumble, complete with the obligatory dash of false hope when he grabs Holly's watch, but the iconic fall is made all the more satisfactory by Gruber's attempt to throw McClane's own catch-phrase back in his face.
