Death's List

Death's Lists Edit

Death's list is changed according to how people died in the premonition and whether they escaped. It can also be judged on whether you don't change something that you changed previously (This is done to Alex Browning and Jonathan Groves). Another thing it can be judged on is whether you were MEANT to die somehow, but a survivor saved you directly (As what happened with Brian Gibbons, who was meant to be hit by a van, but was saved by Rory Peters. By this action, he was added to the list later than the others). The final thing it can be judged on is Death's decisions, his choices on how the order is played out (Like in Final Destination 2 (2003), he tries to seal the rift and stop this from ever happening again. He tries to do this by killing the survivors off backwards, meaning that the person who died first in the premonition he would add last to the list). Here is Death's list for all five movies. (Note: This does not relate to the order they actually died in, this just states the order that Death tried to kill them in. For more information on how this works, go to Death's design).

How the Lists Play Out Edit

Death will try to kill in the order that they died in the premonition, but there are ways to skip death (Once again, for more information go to Death's design). This is how the deaths and skips play out.

Final Destination (2000) Edit

Overall, the best at surviving was Clear Rivers. Only three (Clear Rivers, Alex Browning, Carter Horton) out of the seven managed to skip death at least once, making for a 3:7 ratio, or 57% of the survivors dying first time.

Final Destination 2 (2003) Edit

Name	Number in Order	Skip or Suffer Death?	Death/Skip Scene	Cause of Death/Skip
Kimberly, *Shaina, *Frankie and *Dano	1	Skip/Suffer		Saved by Thomas from being hit by truck.
Evan	2	Suffer		Impaled by ladder.
Tim	3	Suffer		Crushed by a falling glass pane.
Nora	4	Suffer		Decapitated by elevator.
Kat	5	Suffer		Impaled by pole.
Rory	6	Suffer		Trisected by flying fence.
Eugene	7	Suffer		Incinerated in explosion.
Thomas	8	Skip		Saved by Kimberly from being hit by a flying trolley.
Brian***	9	Suffer		Incinerated in explosion.
Kimberly**	1	Suffer	N/A	Mauled by a woodchipper
Thomas**	8	Suffer	N/A	Mauled by a woodchipper

Overall, the best at surviving was Thomas Burke. Only two (Thomas Burke and Kimberly Corman) out of the nine managed to skip death at least once, making for a 2:9 ratio, or 78% of the survivors dying first time

*Note: Depending on how you view it, the three were either part of the list or not part of the list. While they did survive the initial crash, they still died when everyone else did, since they never got out of the car. The act of Kimberly getting out of the car added her to the list. (If they were in fact a part of the list, that means the list would've had 12 people, the biggest out of any Final Destination series. However, this is not common belief). Them dying in the accident happened in the same way, meaning that they never joined Death's List in the first place.

**Note: There has been much confusion to whether Kimberly and Thomas lived or died. In an alternate ending of Final Destination 3, the two where shown to have died. However this is only an alternate ending. Common belief is that they DID die, as it wouldn't make sense if they didn't. The ending is not confirmed to be non-canonical, so this can be taken however you like.

***Note: Brian was not originally on Death's List, as he was never supposed to die in the motorway accident. However, he was supposed to be hit by a news van one way or another on his family's farm, however Rory saved his life. By being saved from an accident that would've killed him if Rory died in the motorway accident, he was added to Death's list in spot number 9. This is also the reason why when Kimberly tried to kill herself, it didn't work, as it wasn't her turn yet.

Final Destination 3 (2006) Edit

Overall, the best at surviving was Wendy Christensen. Only four (Wendy Christensen, Kevin Fischer, Julie Christensen, Ian McKinley) out of the ten managed to skip death at least once, making for a 2:5 ratio, or 60% of the survivors dying first time.

The Final Destination (2009) Edit

Name	Number in Order	Skip or Suffer Death?	Death/Skip Scene	Cause of Death/Skip
Nadia	1	Suffer		Obliterated by flying wheel.

Janet	5	Suffer		Crushed by wheel.
Lori	9	Suffer		Internally decapitated by truck.
Nick	10	Suffer		Thrown into wall by truck

Overall, the best at surviving was Nick O'Bannon. Only three (Nick O'Bannon, Lori Milligan, Janet Cunningham) out of the ten managed to skip death at least once, making for a 3:10 ratio, or 70% of the survivors dying first time.

*Note: Before this, Nick had been having visions of the various ways that survivors would die, similar to the other movies. However, this time Death did something a little different. Death purposefully gave Nick a fake premonition which showed the deaths of George, Janet and Lori. You can tell that the premonition is fake as the survivors die out of order, as Lori should've died after George, then Nick should've died after Lori. This is a giveaway that the premonition isn't real, however after George is killed in the exact same way, Nick is tricked by death into thinking the explosion will kill everyone in the mall, when in reality in most likely would've only killed him and Lori. Nick attempts to stop the explosion from happening, however instead of saving everyone in the theatre he saves only himself and Lori, as the explosion was only meant to kill him and Lori (admittedly, this isn't explained in the movie, but piecing together the order in which the survivors die it's shown that he inadvertently saves himself and Lori from an unknown cause of death). The remaining three believe that they beat death, however death finally kills them in the order they should've died in.
