He's Dead, Jim!: Goldeneye

Another new segment- why not?

He's Dead, Jim! is all about the most ridiculous and/or overkill deaths in Cinema History.  I will also feature ones that stand out for their inexplicably-painful nature.  Why not start with one of the most famous ones?

In Goldeneye, Bond must battle Alec (the less cool one), who is trying to be super-evil by controlling the titular satellite.  Bond travels to Cuba- before the current embargo- to stop him.  After a rough fight, the pair end on the very bottom part of the receiver...
Bond, naturally, prevails and is left holding Alec dangling from it.  He gives his famous retort and...
Lets him fall.  Considering the distance- well over 300 feet!-, he is going to...
Hit it really hard, but still survive.

Those Brits and their adamantium bones- I always forget!
Things go further awry as explosion go off above them, so Bond gets the hell out of there!  If this is exploding in the air above Alec, what is going to happen to...
DAMN!  He's dead!
Bonus points for the burning spike end of the receiver coming down right our poor villain.  That's just cruel.

So now the stage is set.  What other ludicrous and violent deaths will be featured?

You will just have to Stay Tuned...
