Only reason Stormtroopers seem incompetent compared to clones is because they had to deal with way more plot armor.
the clones legit had plot armor helping them
Yep
Rogue One allowed the stormtroopers to show their true potential
@@enclavecommsofficer not so much, in scarif the shore troopers and stormtroopers just leave their bases, they were very easily beaten by, mmm, plot armor, the same thing happens when they attack an imperial base, The stormtroopers were killed just stepping foot outside the base, I hope the movies and series don't continue with that
@@scepter0143 you never watched clone wars start to finish
I feel worse for the Stormtroopers than for Clones tbh. Stormtroopers were just some kids from dirt poor planets that either wanted to get away from their miserable planet or make a genuine difference in the galaxy, not knowing that they don't matter at all to the higher ups and are just as expendable as Clones. On one hand they had a militaristic dictatorship and on the other hand they had crime and poverty running rampant.
Yea I would say morale was much higher in the GAR and as messed up as the situation was for the clones, their expectations on life was never that high
@@Wintermute909 there is.
Also I don't feel too bad for the STs. If it bothered them they could desert, plenty *did*
I thought a bunch of troopers were from affluent core worlds like Carida?
thanks Klaud you are a good man
The Stormtroopers "fuck them" fucking imp's 😏they got what they deserve just as much as the Nazis and the Yankees at (fort pillow)🤭
What’s sad is that I’ve watched Star Wars with veterans from the Vietnam, Korean, and Afghanistan war and they all agreed that they resonated the most with the stormtroopers. It’s not that they were mere tools of death and destruction, but they all knew what it’s like to retreat into your sense of duty and patriotism when forced or asked to do something that many would consider a war crime. I remember one of them telling me “it’s not a war crime if your side wins, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t follow you for the rest of your life”
I mean, the whole Original Trilogy was conceptualised by Lucas as an anti-Vietnam War story, just in space.
dude let me enjoy star wars
The clones had plot armor, while the stormtroopers had nothing to protect them but plastoid. When Han Solo was a storm trooper for a short while, they didn’t sugarcoat how horrible the battle was for him. It might as well have been D-day. Their only hope of survival was victory.
there a big difference. In Afghanistan american troops was fighting bunch of dickheads, and many locals approved of this. In Korea it was defence against imperialist invaders (my country supported north korea at the time, so i know what i talking about).Even in Vietnam many of lokals supported US (yes, my country supported northerners here too))
While in tha case of SW this soldiers were defending clearly oppressive, corrupt regime.
Ill take “things that never happened” for 100
There ought to be an “All Quiet on the Western Front” story for Stormtroopers. That could be interesting.
Yes! Please dear god
Unfortunately it wouldn’t be super interesting, they were all super brainwashed. A normal Imperial soldier would be interesting to hear tho
@@caesarspeaks *cough *cough Fin *cough *cough
Edit: just to clarify. I’m using that point to shit on Disney not you.
That would be brilliant
@@caesarspeaks only First Order troopers are "brainwashed".
Regular Imperial Stormtroopers may have been indoctrinated a fair bit but certainly not brainwashed. Just loyal in the same way that say..an American Marine is loyal. Being indoctrinated into walking the Imperial walk is not the same as brainwashing
RIP to all the brave men that died fighting in space Vietnam
@Content_enjoyer I Remembered liked it was yesterday st3424 was are best marksman he could hit 1 out 10 shots
The sad fact is, when the merciless Rebels gunned down countless stormtroopers, they saw them as just cogs in a machine. The machine, of the Galactic Empire. These Stormtroopers had families. They had husbands, wives, and kids. They had unique stories and lives that they lead, only to be gunned down by people who saw them as cannon fodder. Meanwhile, when the stormtroopers were killing the rebels, they saw them as terrorists that could kill their families, they were fighting for a cause worth fighting for. I don't doubt they knew what they were doing, but you wouldn't treat a terrorist any differently than the stormtroopers treated the rebels.
I wish we saw more scenes of Storm troopers allowed to unleash their deadly skills in the Tantive 4 and on Hoth rather than forced to hold back like on the Death Star and Cloud City.
They weren't forced to hold back on Cloud City, they just suck.
@@anthonyrodriguez3495 Again, the storm troopers were instructed to let Leia and her gang go. Vader instructed them to do that because he figured the Luke would reach out to his comrade on the Falcon.
Vader's plan was for the Empire to capture them all in space, as the Falcon's hyperdrive has been deactivated.
I don’t know why people don’t mention this more often, but under Disney we have seen the use of stormtroopers change from the soldiers of the Empire to a bunch of dysfunctional no-faced soldiers that only exist to allow the protagonists kill them in swarms. They present almost no threat in any of the new films and shows besides rogue one, and even in that film they are killed in massive numbers. If Disney didn’t treat them like target practice I’d say we would probably get the scenes your asking for
@@Vulcan-is8tw that's because no one's ever taken stormtroopers seriously so most people don't care.
@@anthonyrodriguez3495 Ironic you say that on a thread whose original comment asks for more out of these faceless troopers turned mindless buffoons. Even this comment section highlights how some people do care enough to take them seriously.
Blackwing virus is such a horror story, imagine that on the big screen
It would be amazing tho
@@GenerationTech yes, but no. Please no. I want to sleep at night
I can imagine Disney sinking millions into it just see it belly flop into lava, like pretty much every other SW thing they've done...
George Romero already made those movies . It did it a decade before Star Wars.
@@pikeman777 but not *IN SPACE*
I feel bad for every stormtrooper that dies both in the empire and first order/final order. Love your content and the speech in the intro is awesome
thank you citizen the empire can count on you
Yeah, id say the first order had it the worst, they were literally kidnapped as children and forced to serve, imperials atleast had a choice most of the time
O7
@@TK-Commander-5672 The Empire can count on you too! Bro.
You left out the storm troopers who fell to the deaths from those catwalk platforms inside star destroyers and the Death Star. Can’t imagine that’s a nice way to go.
Haha yeah true
Hand rails... You spent all those credits, what's a little more to add some hand rails?
@@berniethekiwidragon4382 The Death Star wasn't even fully paid off yet by the time those f*king teenagers blew it up, Palpatine probably couldn't afford hand rails :P
i think the death star didn't have handrails because the Geonosians, who designed it, have wings and could just fly back up if they fell
@@Kazavop hell, when they fire the DS's laser in ROTJ, one of the charging beams is shown firing down a conduit, and there is LITTERALLY a platform next to the track where the beam is, with someone standing on it, but NO railing, or shielding. Wanna take a guess of how many RADDS that poor shmuck got hit with? There's an identical track featured in TFU game.
When the stormtroopers are shooting at enemies, they will miss 90% of their shots.
When they are friendly firing, they will hit all of their shots.
Stormtroopers hit most of their shots, most times they miss is on purpose to trick the rebels
ikr
Plot armor is a cruel mistress.
Until The Mandalorian, I didn't know plastoid could be smashed like a plate. Boba is brutal.
Honestly plastoid should've handled a bit more beating than we saw. The stick scene made sense but it gets a bit agitating seeing them get knocked over easily by small punches. Granted, not even the clone Wars handled armor that well but still.
Until BOBF I thought Boba was brutal...
I am no longer the child I was when watching Return of the Jedi for the first time in theater's. I can now appreciate the intrinsic horrors of the Ewok species, and find sympathy for so many poor storm troopers killed so horribly just trying to do their jobs.
@Content_enjoyer they’re just simple poor kids who were taken from their family and brought into a mess just to help 2 Sith who can casually wipe out entire planets
@Content_enjoyer i agree it sucks thatso many have to die. but the empire had to go
Their jobs were to support basically space hitler so I think it’s a warranted death😊
An my dad still doesn’t see how Ewoks are really deadly…
The flaw of the Empire is that Palpatine cannot used Battle Droids as the primary fighting forces for him. If he wanted to treat Stormtroopers like Battle Droids, better use Battle Droids. But sadly, he already used them in the Clones Wars for the Separatists Alliance.
It’s implied Palpatine didn’t want battle droids to be common.
Or he should've kept the Clones.
@@jonathan4158 Their costs are higher than Battle Droids. Not only the cloning process but also have to raise them for years as well. After that, he had to pay for equipping them with good weapons, good armors and other necessities for living beings as well.
@@lerneanlion exactly. He wanted to put the Republic in a financial crisis so that he’d have an easier time passing the changes he wanted to make.
That’s the actual sad part about it Actually in fourth episode storm troopers are still pretty bad ass maybe that’s because you’re only watching Vader’s fist…. Especially when you realize that they are being told to purposely miss their targets To expose the rebel base which unfortunately is a ridiculous waste of manpower….. I still say to this day since the storm trooper is worth the most visible example of the emperor is my the biggest mistake he made beside having incompetent imperial officers at the helm was not having a competent fighting force ….. He should’ve stuck with the clones but his rationale was because the Jedi were all but exterminated that he only needed a fighting force that would go up against non-force users so the use and expense of clones was unnecessary. But we all see how well that worked out
A moment of silence for my fallen co-workers. Some of these buds I even knew
Especially the guy who got shot in the crotch and all those who served in space Vietnam against sentient teddy bears.
TRAITOR
Bro you are evrywhere
A moment of silence for when boba shattered their armor due to plot armor
As a person who is very epic, and in fact, is a gamer, I can confirm that this is a Bingchilling moment every body.
I knew a Trooper once... No.2304.
He was a nice guy. Had a loving wife and two wonderful kids on Tatooine...
Unfortunately, he was deployed to the 1st Death Star just before the Skywalker kid blew it to kingdom come.
Rest in peace Soldier...😔🙏
Used to have a buddy who worked on the Imperial Star Destroyer Vector, I wondered what happened to him.
@@Mrbackblower oooooooo.... Sorry for your loss... the Vector was utterly wasted to scrap when a rebel cruiser struck it at light speed...
@@raptorrixx99-wv2hl sorry to ruin the joke, but the Vector actually got the Blackwing Virus
Recently I was lucky enough to become a death trooper, but I still can't forget the fear of seeing my squad get eviscerated by a few snipers. They managed to get stolen goods, some of which were T-7 Ion Disruptors, and you probably know what that is... I did, when I saw everyone I once knew get erased from existence within a moment, their cells exploding and vaporizing. Hours for them, mere milliseconds for me. The only reason I survived was because of a grenade, I played dead since it was too far to harm me, and they fell for it. Stormtroopers were the weak ones, right? Surely the grenade killed the last of them. They didn't expect me to rise from the dead and shoot them in the backs of their heads. I ended up burying the rifles, nothing like that should exist at all.
Stormtrooper armor is actually decent. It can block lasers unless they are military grade or illegally modified. Which 95% percent of blasters are.
Well,it blocks almost all lasers,the impact however knocks them out,HOWEVER if a laser finds a way through a gap of the armor they are *DEAD* but the armor fails sometimes.
Finn's was the worst. The death of a potentially great character.
hahahaha yes - turned into half-baked comic relief that wasn't even funny
I’m just hoping the sequels gets a series like the clone wars that fleshes out and corrects the shortfalls of the movies the same way TCW did for the mess the prequels made
@@MyToastyToast instead we got rebels
😔7 rip finn you had so much potencial
@Angry JayByrd the prequels had their chance and we gave them another. Lucas fumbled every Star Wars movie he was a part of after episode V and we kept giving him chances.
I remember that Stormtrooper who was kicked off that beam by Agent Kallus.
The Empire really took normal humans and pretended they were battle droids.
Just because he asked an innocent question.
Yeah that was messed up. Asking "First time you've seen a Jedi, sir?" Is not a reason to be kicked to your death where you'll either die upon impact, or break so many bones that you suffer needlessly until death finally frees you.
Living beings have souls and experience trauma, suffering, fear, and pain. The Empire ignores this.
@@ohkaygoplay definitely
Officers like that truly suck.
I actually couldn't enjoy the Mandalorian because I felt this weird sympathy for the stormtroopers who kept getting killed. Thanks to the character of Finn we now know that they are mainly enslaved child soldiers who have probably been brainwashed and brutalized. And then they're such incompetent fighters, that it began to feel like the protagonists were killing a bunch of incompetent children. Every time a large group of storm troopers showed up I never felt any fear for the heroes. I just kept wondering how all the poor stormtroopers would die. It was a strange experience which turned me off the show. I wonder if other people had the same feeling.
The stormtroopers of the Empire weren’t enslaved children. They didn’t do that until the First Order. The stormtroopers of the Empire were recruited
That's why I'll insist to my dying day that the clones were better soldiers than the Stormtroopers since clones viewed their squadmates as family made them work better together while Imperial Stormtroopers saw their fellow sqaudmates as potential rivals and would never hesitate about shooting them
Yea bad company culture well get around to talking about that
@@GenerationTech facts
Honestly that was mostly legends stormtroopers where they were elite fanatical soldiers. In canon they're never portrayed as such and they pretty much dropped that concept by this point
The Stromtrooper Corp would be one of the worst armies simply because they are trained to compete with each other instead of working together.
True they are better soliders in legends (real Canon as far as I'm concerned) but they still were inferior to the clone troopers. The clones basically were raised to fight together and oddly enough learned to view themselves as individuals and each other as family. Stormtroopers, even in legends, were treated as nothing more than a number and expendable. Overall that means that they are less efficient as a unit and likely didn't trust the other members of their unit to have their backs. Their were exceptions in legends when a officer would go out of their way to ensure that the troops under his command were taken care of, which usually lead to better results...at least until another officer gets jealous of their and sabotages them.
One of the reasons I like rouge one besides it being military film. It show stormtroopers shooting in more of an tactical manner then what on scene in the OG trilogy.
Yeah I liked seeing them aim.
Luke's, SPEEDERBIKE victim, most likely suffered the injury you suggested, but, just as easily, could have been instead death, by that impact "souping his brain", in his skull and helmet. Brain soup possibilities aside, the broken back and or neck, would be far worse -especially if not found by the omnivorous and apparently predatory natives. Slow starvation, dehydration, and an armored body shaped tomb full of body waste..is..even more depressingly horrific to think of than the already horrifying thought of being helplessly eaten alive.. which is really really..bad.
Which is why none of that did or would happen since the bike exploded on impact into TINY pieces an he seems apparently to been atomized or souped on impact
@@robertagu5533 Apologies. I meant the one that he took a bike from..and tossed aside to slam into a supergigantic tree all alone.
@@scottbraun2457 oh your fine think the impact but your still alive an several trillion literal light years from nearest means of good medical aid is one the worst case scenarios.... If any of say THE worst. Being entombed in your armor, barely alive an unable to move if your awake you'll suffer as you go. Last ONLY as long as dehydration allows. Assuming everything hostile either never finds you or just decided it's NOT gonna mess with you. ESPECIALLY if it's least semi sentient like an Ewok that just decided you weren't worth the effort to finish off. Which being a dick on that one would be universal
I wonder if he would have survived long enough to see the explosion of the second death star. Imagine the overbearingly crushing weight of total helplessness.
I give your response a "like", not because I like the idea of the poor guy helplessly suffering in human soup state in his armor, gurgling his last, to have his sight in life be the second DEATHSTAR dieing ..but rather to acknowledge equally how horrible they were going to feel even worse, when that sight came into view.
I've watched 'Rogue One' a few times, and I have TOTALLY missed the scene where the Stormtrooper got shot in the balls! Thanks, bro, there's no way I can 'unsee' that moment! Lol.
Oh, damn.
I was expecting to see Starkiller when he disintegrates a whole platoon of stormtroopers in the promotional footage for Force Unleashed Two, but after seeing your picks some of these are way more drawn-out and brutal than being vaporized in an instant.
Except for the absolute #1 pick, where both happened, I agree.
Makes me think of the bits in Austin Powers when the families of deceased henchman would recieve a call informing them of the henchmans death. Storm troopers have families too.
We need more Stromtrooper stories...
Agreed
"My Lord." "GO **** YOURSELF!" "Oh..."
That time a stormtrooper greeted his Emperor... after many of his comrades did.

These iconic baddies need more representation as AN EFFECTIVE FIGHTING FORCE!!! DAMNIT DISNEY!!!!
We’ve got plenty of Stars now please just bring back the Wars already. Jeez.
I felt sorry for the stormtroopers who were guarding Grogu. Imagine being dragged around by an unseen force being produced by a tiny green goblin. You could hear there screams of pain.
Disney has some twisted scenes.
@@ramblinnernd5905 Kenobi: You ain't seen nothin yet...
I would’ve put the AT-DP driver that was mind tricked by Ezra into killing his own comrades and then forced to helplessly direct his own walker off a platform to be crushed by the immense pressure of a gas giant as he continuously falls towards the planet’s center.
Damn that’s cold.
Good Lord, Ezra.
I wouldn’t say he was mind tricked
I think Ezra used the force to control the machine
@@sdm47No i believe Ezra was mind controling the driver because you can see him straightening up his posture wich they usually do when being mind tricked. Plus the driver didn't try to fighting back to regain control of the AT-DT wich means he wasn't conscious.
I’m surprised he didn’t mention the stormtrooper in the sarlack
Me to.
That still would have been a bad way to go
Considering he missed the most horrific of all, I am not suprised at all by that oversight.
Well the sarlacc keeps you alive for 1000 years, so my guy technically isnt dead yet
Can't have two vore deaths I suppose, lest you reveal too much about yourself
Wasn’t there a storm trooper who got his neck snapped by Vader for seeing his face? That’s also a horrible way to go as he wouldn’t have died quick enough to not realize what happened.
Or basically any dark trooper, they were the imperials best, only to be cut up, stuck into a mechanical suit. They weren’t really alive to begin with but going through all and then die is messed up
Being Vaders personal meat shield is the greatest honor a stormtrooper such as myself can strive for
Such a loyal stormtrooper you are!
I kinda figured no.2 & 1 were gonna be both Deathstar explosions, because AT LEAST 500,000, or hell, maybe 1,000,000 even per station Storm Troopers (including all the operators & maintenance)were either nuked or launched into space and died from suffocation, hypothermia, and even blood boiling from the lack of an atmosphere...
Death 11: stormtrooper x died on the toilet when the death star 2 blew up
I feel sorry for all these stormtroopers who fought bravely and sacrificed. They were men who ready to be sacrificed anytime, anywhere for the good of the Empire, and they were willing to sacrifice because of their absolute loyalty to the Empire.
I hate how Lucas and Disney forgot that a lot of these guys were just people who were brainwashed or just poor and wanted to join for action or to see the world (like Luke). It's especially sad because there's people in the real world who join armies committing horrible acts for similar reasons. smh.
@@bboi1489 Exactly, many of them joined the army because of poverty, and the army was almost their only chance. But even so they still truly believe what the Empire says to them, that they can bring law and order to the galaxy, and that the Galactic Empire military is on the side of justice fighting the rebel scum. That's why they are loyal to the Empire and willing to sacrifice for the Empire. Just like the stormtroopers will face terrifying alien monsters for the people. If they did something wrong, it was also obeying the orders of the Imperial leaders, and the person responsible should be the one who gave the orders.
Okay...shooting someone in the nuts like that MIGHT be a Stormtrooper thing to do. But 3 times in a row? Come on, that's totally personal.
That's what you get for eating the last pizza slice, CT-4296
I really liked the break down of the friendly fire scene. I’d love to see more of it
In summary if you're a member of the imperial military in Star Wars, stay away from outer rim assignments. Because you'll likely either A) get sent to a world with a hostile ecosystem and natives with the fighting skills of John Rambo. Or B) encounter a Mandalorian that will dunk on you like you're a Persian soldier from the movie 300.
Or C) get shot in the balls from your fellow squad mate 😂
Like seriously for outer rim shootouts are just a tradition
@@dominmaj9682 yeehaw
hey, at least that Eweb trooper stood his ground. Big rock!? hold my beer i got this boys!
We offer our most sincere condolences to the families of all Storm Troopers of whom have died and awarded the newest Medal of the Palace to all those of whom have died in search of the Empires greater good.
A new contender for the list is the trooper that gets cut clean in half by a beam gate in Kenobi. Not to mention the guy was shot right in the chest before.
We all know that the best way to completely remove all tension from a movie is to make it so that the enemies are completely unthreatening whatsoever. When I saw Imperial Stormtroopers for the first time in the original series they did come off as cannon fodder, but they still did seem somewhat threatening (just see the beginning of episode 4). But now I just think “Oh, I wonder what humorous death Disney planed this time”. How am I supposed to fear for the safety of the protagonists if the antagonists are just so unthreatening? Imagine watching Band of Brothers or Saving Private Ryan if the whole movie the Germans were completely unthreatening and never killed anyone.
This makes me feel so bad for stormtroopers, I hope they find peace in the afterlife even though they’re fictional characters.
The one that always stood out to me was in that one old comic following the Hoth troopers firing the ion cannon, and one of them stabbed a stormtrooper with an icicle right through the visor.
The Rogue One novel gave some details from the destruction of Jedha city. One of the command troopers left behind was thrown into the sky with the debris from the Death Star's blast and her armour maintained integrity for long enough for her to feel betrayal and regret before she died.
Did you know most storm troopers do not actually die, their armour protects them they just get a massive shock and become unconscious
4:20 he died before the nutshots if there's a kind god in that reality...
The Stormtroopers you said were 501st, weren't... let me explain. After the fall of the Republic, the 501st Legion became the "Vader's Fist"; they still wore Stormtrooper armor with 501st style paint on it. The "Vader's Fist" was brought anywhere that Vader went on a crusade, and would fight anyone who could pose a chance at causing Vader to have to defend himself. The troopers on Endor was just a small company of standard Stormtroopers not assigned to a division.
Palpatine said that they're his best troops which means 501-st
@@WindRunner04 actually not, as they were no longer clones at this point they were just regular humans so most likely not better than any others
@@ragesquit5415 correction my good man. Clones while no longer being made to replace losses the veterans were still clones. While rebels proves that some left. Those younger stayed in their divisions.
@@thegodemperorofmankind2740 if you see Rex in EP.6 I doubt that clones at this age were still serving

10 Times Stormtroopers Were Killed by Their Own Superiors.
RIP to all the storm troopers that tried their best especially the one who fought back when mandalorian put him in a head lock but yet he hit him in the stomach atleast he tried
I think that this video can probably be topped just by looking for the 10 most horrific deaths inflicted by Vader on his own people.
from what i understant, the Stormtrooper armor is designed to disperse the energy of a blaster bolt and insulate the wearer, lessening the injury. the man may be knocked unconscious, but his chances of survival are notably higher than if he didn't wear these armor pieces.
That being said, getting shot ten times and then taking a hit to the head that broke the helmet...
yeah, he's definetly dead
Wow! Expecting a punchline in the initial speech gave me all the more chills once it concluded.
Maybe one day we’ll get a good Stormtrooper or Imperial Army Trooper story.
Sup TK-756
Long Live The Empire.
The Empire may have been an autocratic dictatorship of evil, but the Stormtroopers were still human
The storm trooper that hit the tree on endor had every bone in his body broken on impact according to the novelization.
That would have been a truly excruciating death, methinks. Lying there, shattered limbs twitching spasmodically as the punctured muscles bleed out and the damaged nerves neurons fire away indiscriminately. His rib punctured lungs slowly filled with fluid so he ultimately drowned in his own juices.
@@datathunderstorm he was dead on impact, ribs punctured his heart and his brain crushed in his skull
I think that a lot of stormtroopers shared bonds with one another and didnt just see eachother as rivals. The academy taught them to snitch and harm one another, but trauma bonding would still be real in SW and stormtroopers would definitely form tight bonds.
At 10:00 in the lower center panel, the text starts out with “Maybe they don’t show up on…” before it cuts away.
Could it have been “Maybe they don’t show up on infrared at all?” If so, that would be an awesome reference to _Aliens_ .
Kovacs does indeed deliver Corporal Dietrich's whole line from _Aliens_ in that panel. There are probably more efficient search strings, but flip through the Google results for 'creepy ewoks' and you'll find the page of the comic that Allen used.
The writer of that comic - 'Apocalypse Endor' by Christian Read - picked some pretty great influences for the story.
4:13 +
Shots 1-5: Clearly missed.
Shots 6-9: Missed due to recoil (bad spray control).
Shots 10-11: Very close, but recoil and inaccuracy make these reasonable misses.
Shot 12: Likely didn't actually fire because TK #? was already dead.
I will never get over that friendly-fire ball-shot scene.
Another brutal Stormtrooper death thats arguably worse than any on this list is the Stormtrooper Boba Fett encountered inside the Sarlacc’s stomach during his escape. I don’t know when the Stormtrooper fell in the pit but it was at least a few years of constant suffering before Boba returned to kill the Sarlacc and end the victims’ suffering.
Probably the most horrifyingly painful and miserable demise that lasted an eternity to the victim. Death would have come as a welcome release from such unbridled horror.
Rip my stormtrooper bois
While it may sound bad, these are rare occurrences.
Just keep in mind that thanks to the Empire, I was able to pursue college level courses and gained the skills necessary for the competitive job market
Honestly, that scout trooper's organs probably liquefied on impact. He hit flat at 310 mph.
Now that I think about it. To y’all that know starkiller and all that, when he does that whole vaporization thing, do the unlucky troops feel pain or is it instant which it looks like it is?
Stormtroopers deserved better
I'm surprised that the stormtroopers killed by Boba Fett's Gaffi stick aren't on here. A Gaderffi stick is basically a totokia (a Fijian war club specifically designed to smash in a person's skull) with the addition of a spear. Add to the fact that their helmets were destroyed in the process, those kills were pretty brutal.
I'm also surprised that the Force Unleashed II stormtroopers weren't on here. Getting dismembered, beheaded, or cut in half are all pretty brutal.
Also, the stormtroopers in front of Fortress Vader, who suffered death by lava in the Vader comics.
Also the TIE pilots whose TIE fighters were shot down and destroyed, but did not explode. It's like a car crash but worse, and death isn't always as instantaneous as they would have been had they instead been vaporized in an explosion.
I remember the one who saw darth vaders face and his neck was broken
That guy got his head turned around 180 degrees if I remember correctly. Talk about the wrong place at the wrong time
@@qchang09 yeah
Nah his helmet was just flippef in his head
In one the newer Timothy Zahn books ( do not remember which one) several stormtroopers fall down a pit towards a planets core, and it is remarked it probably took several hours of falling for them to die.
Alan , as always a great and informative content, congrats man!
Rest in peace to the Stormtroopers we messed with in the Force Unleashed series.
And those poor buggers in the Fallen Order.
I would to see a video of mainly nameless clones that had horrible deaths. I can think with the top of my head the dead of Commander Colt (The one that initially gets choked by Ventress, thrown into a wall which removes his helmet, and later Ventress activates her light saber pointing to him, Colt knowing what's about to happen panics and shakes his head in denial and trying to scream, and with that Ventress puts her saber to perforate his chest and she kisses the corpse.
That one and the nameless that gets his head/chest crushed by Grievous feet in front of Obi Wan Kenobi.
Honestly every video that's of this nature just makes Stormtroopers feel super incompetent tbh. We should be seeing more for the rebels but it's always stormtroopers.
@west of whatever Yeah, still doesn't explain the fact that somehow they're portrayed more incompetently than the likes of rebel soldiers.
@@esorkgonzalez2262 they seems incompetent most of the times because most of the times their targets are protected by huge plot-armour
13:00. "Lothal was considered a minor Imperial World" pans to one of the largest on-screen Imperial fleets seen
Youd think after that whole Zillo beast arc in the clone wars, theyd have figured out a way to make better armor for the stormtroopers
Like yeah plastoid can absorb energy and blaster fire to the point where its likely youll survive several shots before its compromised, but its SUPER weak to physical damage, as Boba showed us. Like... Some troopers died to heavy blows alone. What kind of army cant handle physical damage!
The Empire spared every expense equipping their soldiers. They weren't interested in well trained soldiers with top of the line gear. They wanted numbers and they wanted them cheap, which is why they stopped using clones and started recruiting and rounding up conscripts.
For about 15 years, there was no rebellion, so there was no war. Training soldiers and equipping them with effective weaponry is an unnecessary expense in those circumstances. Stormtroopers are equipped to intimidate, to be the face of oppression. Even in A New Hope, you can see a world of difference between the troops expected to bring results on the Tantive IV, and the ones who were tasked with policing Tatooine.
Boba Fett in Mandolorian was EXTREMELY brutal.
I feel bad for the stormtroopers who's skulls Boba smashed with the staff thing.
In regards to the Battlefront II clip showing the survival mode, those guys were effectively in *Space Vietnam,* only instead of Vietnamese and bullets it was *Bears and Lasers.*
I feel sorry for the trooper in Mando who was eating lunch then shot unexpectedly
Worst death of all, he didn’t even get a chance to fight.
The one unarmed stormtrooper that Baze Malbus brutally executed deserves some recognition. He was on his stomach with no way of fighting back and Baze put a hole in his face.
That beginning gave me goosebumps… well done 🤝
The molten metal didn't fall on the active AT DP, it fell on the modified AT DP that is used to fire the superweapon. You know?the one identifiable by the massive rectangular structures protruding out from the hull? Also, AT DPs need two pilots to be fully functional, a driver and a gunner so we can assume that two stormtroopers died here
I could watch generation techs content all day. Imagine having a career studying Star Wars.
I think an honorable mention should go to the stormtrooper that got kicked in the face by Kallus and then fell to his death on Kessel, poor guy fell into a seemingly endless pit and got kicked in the head by the commanding officer just so he could survive
Ezra taking control of the walker pilot and mowing down the storm troopers on the ground was messed up. Then the pilot, still under Ezra's control, just walks off a cliff. The pilot was basically a spectator to his own death and the death of his comrades, wtf.
Again an incredible video
I cried too much. I feel so bad for all of them.
the intro was awesome
Awesome compilation and very interesting slow motion captures and explinations - very well done! However - what I like most was the soundtrack :-) Metal, synth wave and some other stuff - thumbs up for your fine taste :-D
Okay but can we talk about how genuinely scary Ewok Hunt made the Endor feel. Like idk but that shit was immersive af.
Life in the Star Wars Galazy without the force is practically a death sentence or being condemned to life in slavery.
I am dual classing as A Sith Warrior for sure.
Star Wars: A Stormtrooper Story
Do it!!!!
Make it about Gary the Stormtrooper.
This video was hilarious. Great work
Of course, this doesn't mention all the horrible deaths suffered by troopers at our own hands while playing Star Wars video games like The Force Unleashed, Jedi-Fallen Order, or the Dark Forces/Jedi Knight series.
Slag dipping, tossed off of platforms, crushed, Death Star laser beams. The list would go on for Fallen Order and Dark Forces, but I never played those games.
Rule 1: never try to fight an angry mandalorian mama trying to protect her baby
I find it funny in a morbid way that of the ten death scenarios listed here, Moff Gideon's forces suffered three of them. If I were a Remnant trooper I'd be trying to find a new Moff quick like...
Fun fact: when stormtroopers are shot, most of the time they don’t die unless it’s a headshot. They are knocked out for a while from the pain. The lasers are mostly heat. The armor absorbs it but it still can puncture the skin. Most stormtroopers actually survive. Once again if it’s a head shot they most likely were killed or no armour.
Lol, this was really well thought out. Good video.
Both troopers (clone and storm) deaths were sad but then again, clones fought for something good and had good humour and personality’s. Clones didn’t get enough respect because they sacrificed themselves and it wasn’t there fault doing order 66
Clones also have WAY more screen time than stormtroopers. We don't get a chance to see personality. And most of them probably believed they were fighting for something good.
The true heros of star wars
I sing this song and beat this dead horse so much, but here it is again
I wish there were more scenes like the opening to ANH showing stormtroopers to be fast brutal and efficient. Also they didn’t die in droves in the OT at the very least not nearly as quickly in R1 and Mando.
Hell in OT and TFA the good guys feared them. Then you got the Mandalorian where they literally accomplish nothing and are made fun of in universe. That’s my primary reason that I can’t get invested in that show, the complete lack of any real threat.
R1 was good, but it bugs me to see a dozen or so troopers drop dead as soon as they get into the mission area. They do take a few guys down which is pretty good it’s just still seeing dozens of Imperial bodies at once kinda takes away any threat aspect of them.
In ANH, wholesale Rebel destruction, wiped jawas, of course Owen and Beru. The good guys were constantly kept on the run as opposed to dealing with super heroes that always succeed in standing their ground while completely fearless.
In ESB, it’s mostly the walkers that cause devastation but they still storm the base despite not shown to kill anyone. There seriously should’ve been a few skirmishes in the base. On Bespin there should’ve been a few Bespin guards to help the crew escape and maybe a few of them could’ve been dropped along the way(the guards would technically be from Star Trek cuz they’d be blue shirts heh). Despite not seeing them take anyone down, at least they kept the crew on the run.
As for ROTJ, yeah they get wiped by teddy bears. BUT, a scout trooper pimp slaps Solo across the face(lol), another successfully knocks Leia off her bike, but dies, and another knocked the JEDI Luke off his bike, but dies. When it comes to the main battle, it’s really not super humiliating. The only time we see a trooper best an Ewok is when he yeets one off of him. Then the AT-STs continue to mop up. But around the Bunker you can find a few fallen Rebel commandos implying they got shot, and one stormboi puts a successful hit on Leia. Ultimately they lost but they were not entirely ineffective.
It’s really not fair to have the most iconic baddies in this beloved franchise be treated like dirt so much thanks to Disney. They weren’t failures and they weren’t in universe jokes(I mean it’s fine for fans to joke about them, that’s part of the fun). Now no one’s scared and everyone is a superhero. It’s cool that we see so much of the Stars now, now they just need to eventually reincorporate the Wars.
It’s sad what the stormtroopers have to go through, because they’re made to do this
