The Borderlands 2 DLC Sir Hammerlock's Big Game Hunt offers up an hilariously irreverent boss fight against the evil genius scientist Professor Nakayama, though unlike most other bosses on this list, the easy way is actually the only way.

After a brief cutscene sets the stage for an epic fight, Nakayama begins making his way down the steps to do battle...only to trip and take a devastating tumble down the steps, smashing his body countless times on the way down.

By the time he reaches your feet, he's already dead, ending the fight in about eight seconds flat without the player actually needing to do anything at all.

This may ultimately be a joke boss fight, yet considering how convincingly players were led to believe a mighty fight was on the horizon, it's ingenious that there's literally no option but to let the stairs do the "fighting" for you.
