EVERY Jurassic Park & World Death RANKED By Stupidity

There aren't many character deaths in the Jurassic franchise that you could classify as noble. Most either come down to stupidity, as the title of this article may suggest, bad luck, or potentially a combination of the two.

However, Eddie Carr (Richard Schiff) was noble. In The Lost World, two T-Rexes attacked the group's twin trailers, sending them over the edge of a cliff with Ian Malcolm, Sarah Harding, and Nick Van Owen (Vince Vaughn) trapped inside. If not for Eddie, they would have fallen and suffered a fiery death at the bottom.

Instead, Eddie put himself in a huge amount of danger to delay the trailers from plunging over the edge, anchoring them with his truck long enough to get a rope down to his previously helpless colleagues, saving their lives. Eddie's reward for such bravery? He was brutally ripped in two by the T-Rexes.

The stupidity of this death didn't come from Eddie himself, but from Nick Van Owen. He was the whole reason the Rexes attacked the trailer in the first place, thanks to his ill-advised decision to bring their baby inside to help its broken leg. The intentions were good, certainly, but as Alan Grant once said, even some of the worst things imaginable were done with good intentions.
