Marvel Cinematic Universe: 50 Best Deaths
13. Ho Yinsen
Died In: Iron Man
Not only did Ho Yinsen save Tony Stark's life after the Ten Rings' ambush of the military convoy at the start of the film, he helped open Stark's eyes to what terrors Stark Industries had truly been providing the world.
In order to buy Stark time for his first suit to finish activating, Yinsen grabbed a gun and ran off after their captors. Stark later found him dying and ready to rejoin the family he had lost, with his passing well and truly lighting the flame within Stark to start his life anew.
