Thor: Ragnarok
Warning : despoiler below forThor : Ragnarok !
In a moving picture that was paries - to - wall joke and surprises , it was one of the most surprising moment and one of the biggest joke inThor : Ragnarok : Fenris , the giant undead wolf ofHela the Goddess of Death(Cate Blanchett ) was rouse down the bridge towards the incapacitated people of Asgard . Despite inject at Fenris repeatedly , theValkyrie(Tessa Thompson ) could n’t kill the enormous Friedrich August Wolf . That was when Bruce Banner ( Mark Ruffalo ) made a fateful decision . tell Valkyrie that everything was die to be fine now , Banner flung himself out of their spaceship , plummeted downward and … swash himself on the bridge .
Banner was hypothesise to turn into the Hulk , which he did a few moments later . Audiences require the few seconds to pull together themselves from the shock of the muzzle before Hulk emerge to grab Fenris by the tail and have an epical fight with the elephantine Friedrich August Wolf . However , Banner ’s hilarious bad landing still leave many devotee wondering if Banner actually died .

Banner was n’t trying to vote out himself . It was clear from his spirit that felo-de-se was n’t his plan - Banner was planning to deform into the Hulk and make the transformation in mid - drop . Instead , somehow he mistimed his twist into green and belly flopped onto the hard bridge . We do hear him subtly whimper in pain , so no , Banner was not stagnant upon impact . And he did n’t die . In fact , according to his own words and experience , Bannercan’tkill himself .
Remember our first time coming together Ruffalo ’s adaptation of Bruce Banner inThe Avengers?Natasha Romanoff ( Scarlett Johansson ) track Banner to Kolkata , India , where he had manage to go over a year without Hulking out . Banner told Natasha that he actually did attempt self-destruction at one point :
I tried ! I got humbled . I did n’t see an oddment so I put a bullet in my lip , and the other guy spit it out .
Banner literallycan’toff himself because the Hulk wo n’t let him . As much as Hulk dislike himself as Banner , and vice versa , the Hulk know he ca n’t exist without Banner . The tenseness of death or near - death on Banner ’s system like a shot turns him into the Hulk as a defense mechanism - and the Hulk ’s impenetrability and power to bring around benefits Banner as well . This is n’t to say the Hulk ca n’t be wipe out , but from Banner ’s own account from his own previous effort , the Hulk simply wo n’t allow Banner to decease .

rather , Banner ’s Modern concern is what happens to him if Hulk does n’t need to metamorphose back into Banner . Bruce was horror-struck to study that he remain as the Hulk for two eld on the planet Sakaar - and Hulk got smart during those two yr . Banner feared the next sentence he transform into the Hulk , Banner would disappear forever ; he ’ll be " locked in the tree trunk " and substitute for good by the Hulk . So turning into the Hulk on Asgard was a huge sacrifice for Banner , but he knew the Hulk ’s power was desperately need by theRevengers .
If Banner does ' die ' , it ’ll be because Hulk wo n’t permit him come back now that Hulk is back behind the wheel . And who knows how foresightful Hulk will stay the Hulk this time?Avengers : Infinity Warwill be the next time we see Hulk , and hopefully Banner as well .
