Martin Riggs runs the Die Hard Gauntlet

Let's see how Mr. Riggs measures up against several of Die Hard's finest villains.

*Firearms optional

1. Hans Gruber (Die Hard)*
2. Major Grant (Die Hard 2)
3. Colonel Stuart (Die Hard 2)
4. Simon Gruber (Die Hard With a Vengeance), inside his chopper*
5. Mai (Live Free or Die Hard)
6. Thomas Gabriel (Live Free or Die Hard)* although Riggs may want to beat the shit out of him with his bare hands.

Riggs pwns them all, more efficiently than McClaine did.

Riggs clears it IMO. Some of the villains were good at scheming and more plot-based tactics and not actual fighters (e.g Hans).

Left Targo (Dh 3) out.

If its Riggs at his current age (Or the age he would have been in 2006) especially when fighting Mai, Riggs is dead. (Assuming he survived Stuart)

Hes way too old for that shit.

With firearms though, hed probably just shoot 'em.
A lot of shit gets talked about how much Riggs is a hand to hand killer, but even though he has less kills than McClane, his percentage of "killed by shooting" kills is higher.

Why do you always do that? Why do you always say Riggs in LW4? You know, we are counting ALL of the movie Riggs, not just 4.

You just answered your own question:

"You know, we are counting ALL of the movies".

Right now if 2008 McClane met 2008 Riggs, McClane'd kill him. Outright.

Look. If he really wanted to be cheap, he probably coulda just shot her or something.

Either his wanting arrest/interrogate her up until she kicked her out the window, or being old fashioned was responsible for him not trying to take her out 'til then.

Then when he lost his temper he perfectly combined the desire to get up there quickly before Computer geek was killed or forced to complete his task with desire to get up there quick to kick her arse.

The SUV was the quick way of doing it.








Riggs with the shipping container was a bigger punk out..

Right roll eyes (sarcastic) You have a habit of focusing on LW4 Riggs and ignoring the rest.

Dude if you were fighting tommorrow, and I was asked to make an assessment of your recent form, it would not be based on what you did when you were seventeen.

It'd be 'how did you get on last week.'

By your logic, Mike Tyson has never been and will never be defeated because of what he did to Larry Holmes back in the day, totally ignoring the spankings that Douglas, Lewis, Williams gave to him since.

And how can you moan about the mentioning of McClane's kill count from all the movies one minute, yet when you want to cite whatever Riggs does in all other movies, its somehow magically alright...?

Wait, since when are they fighting tomorrow? It's ALL the Riggs and McClaine's, from all four movies.

6. Mai (Live Free or Die Hard)
7. Thomas Gabriel when he has Rianne hostage at point blank (Live Free or Die Hard)* although Riggs may want to beat the shit out of him with his bare hands.

Certainly as OK and more fair than 'not letting McClane having an option to shoot Jet Li'.
