What killed him, the fall or the wildebeests?

The pride

I didn’t see any puncture wounds or bruising.......

Well of course. The pride went before his fall.

The shock of his brother betraying him.

If he had told Scar to let him fall, would he have saved him instead?

Was Mufasa simply too dumb to try reverse psychology?

Plot twist: Mufasa was faking his death

Well, Scar didn't die when Simba sent him flying off a cliff, so I'm guessing the wildebeests knocked the wind out of him, crushed his ribs, yadda yadda.
I'm more surprised he didn't crush a wildebeest when he landed though.

you think they’re going to detail realistic wounds on a dead lion?

I don’t see how we’re expected to perform an accurate autopsy if they don’t.

The real question is, what happened to the wildebeests that Mufasa would have landed upon when hitting the ground?

Neither, He died of a Broken heart.

Brush him off and keep running

This, honestly. The crushing disappointment of his brother turning on him is what really killed Mufasa.

He probably survived the fall, but would have quickly succumbed to the injuries anyway because lions don't have medical treatment. Then the wildebeests mercy-trampled him.

Fuck, that actually makes this scene sadder.

The poison in his ear.

But he wasn't killed.

The Wildebeasts.

There was concept sketches of him landing looking up and then getting trampled but they figured they were already pushing it by having him die at all and having Simba find his dead body afterwards so they just had him start to fall and then zoom up to Simba dramatically.

It's like how they were gonna have Gaston land and break his legs, then get attacked by wolves when he couldn't stand but decided that was too brutal for Disney so they just had him fall and that was it.

Crushing disappointment is his worthless son and bisexual brother.

>brother betrayed me
>not just willing to let me die, willing to murder me
>now I won't be able to protect my son from my own brother who will probably kill him next

Mufasa's last moments were horrible and hopeless

It's not the fall that killed him... it was the sudden stop at the end.

The script.

>wants disney to go whole hog and portray Mufasa as a sputtering mass of gore and shattered bone after the stampede
>Simba goes up to a pile of hamburger with orange fluff to it and says "dad, daddy wake up"

>we got some good hits in though, right?

A """live action""" adaptation

>It's Simba! He's in the gorge!
>Eh, Circle of Life
That's why it's important to practice what you preach

THE HEART

A question that furfags are too afraid to answer. Cats can withstand a huge fall, but I doubt they can withstand hundreds of heavy food stamps.

Housecats can survive their terminal velocity because they weigh a few pounds, and even that's not a guarantee.

Lions weigh like 400 pounds.

internal hemorrhaging

Neither. Well, it was the wildebeests, but it wasn't their hooves that did it, if you parse what I'm saying.

Simba.

CARLOS!

Nice try, Scar.

Wrong. Scar hit Mufasa's pressure points in his paws causing Mufasa's heart to explode seconds later. He was already dead before he hit the ground.

He died of shock before the web connected, asshole.

Falling, being too injured to escape from the stampede, and getting trampled.

He wanted to die faster, so Scar helped him.

You don't die of shock, retard, you pass out from shock. Mufasa lapsed out of consciousness when Scar yeeted him off the cliff.

>Trusting his brother after Scar literally said he was going to back stab him a year earlier

The stop at the fall’s end

Simba

niggers only kill other niggers

He couldn't forget love and pride, and because of this, it was killing him inside.

user, it's Africa, they're ALL niggers, niggers (Scar) DID kill other niggers (Mufasa)

This is somehow sadder than everything else.

>hundreds of heavy food stamps
They're in Africa so i think they'll manage

And then he came tumbling down the gorge.

Scar was voiced by Jeremy Irons. That is about as un-nigga as you get.

>Shit on your younger brother for years.
>make fun of his birth name meaning "trash"
>make fun of his injury and give him name based on it
>have everyone in the kingdom call him this name as well
>steal his single crush
>make his former crush nothing more than an addition to your harem
>constantly intimidate him with your position as king
>constantly intimidate him by letting him know your brat is going to rule over him too one day
>SCAR, HELP ME MAN, AREN'T WE BROS?

Mufasa deserved to feel every hoof

Scar really let him down.

This but unironically
