History WebAnimation / HeavyIsDead

* BadassBoast: So badass that everyone present ''applauds''. '''''[[VillainRespect Even the murderer himself!]]'''''

'''Spy:''' I will find him, I will capture him, and ''no one'' will ever die again!\\

-->'''Spy''': Well, that was idiotic. Off to hang myself! Watch and lea-[''ded'']

->'''Spy:''' Well, that was idiotic. [[DrivenToSuicide Off to hang myself. Watch and le--]]('''CRIT''')\\

* CaptainObvious: [[SarcasmMode It may be hard to believe]], [[RunningGag but Heavy is]] actually '''[[DeaderThanDead DEAD]]'''[[note]]THE HEAVY IS DEAD??[[/note]].

* CharacterDeath: Believe it or not, ''the Heavy is dead.''[[note]]THE HEAVY IS DEAD?[[/note]] The Engineer shoots him with a telescope. Subverted in that Heavy [[NotQuiteDead keeps getting revived]], but has to act dead because everyone insists he's dead. Played straight with the rest of the team, who [[DwindlingParty are picked off one by one in other ways]].

* DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment: Pretty much the entire cast points out multiple times that the Heavy is dead[[note]]THE HEAVY IS DEAD?[[/note]]. [[ForgetfulJones This is treated as a shocking revelation every single time.]]

* EvilLaugh: Engineer does a sinister chuckle after killing Heavy.

* FakeShemp: Almost all of the ''Team Fortress 2'' cast featured in the video reprised their roles for "The [=TF2=] Voice Actors Recreate Heavy is Dead", with the exceptions of Grant Goodeve (the Engineer) and Rick May (the Soldier), whose lines remain [[ManipulativeEditing sentence-mixed]] archived audio, due to Grant Goodeve preferring to stay out of the public eye and Rick May having passed away a few months after the original ''Heavy is Dead''[[note]]THE HEAVY IS DEAD?[[/note]].

-->'''Spy''': Well, that was idiotic. Off to hang myself! Watch and learn-[''ded'']

* OnlySaneMan: Zig-zagged with Spy. While Spy is much more mature than his allies ([[WorldOfWeirdness not that that's saying much]]) and is dead-serious about finding out who killed Heavy, he genuinely gets caught off guard when being informed that the Heavy is dead, and laughs at Demoman's 'joke'.

** The gameshow gag -- Spy and Engineer tell Sniper that the Heavy is dead[[note]]THE HEAVY IS DEAD?[[/note]]. A Series/WhoWantsToBeAMillionaire-style display promptly appears.

* SurroundedByIdiots: The Spy, despite being NotSoAboveItAll. He gives an exasperated "''We know!''" when Soldier informs him that the Heavy is dead, groans when the Scout shows up and orders the Scout to go home, is visibly DisappointedByTheMotive when the perpetrator is revealed, and deems the series of events as idiotic before hanging himself.

'''Engineer:''' 'Coz you're FAT, boi. And another thing? You're ''ugly.'' ('''Heavy:''' Engineer, stop!) You're a whole herd of ugly. ('''Heavy:''' Engineer, you are so ''mean!'') You're dumb as a box of rocks. ('''Heavy:''' [[DudeNotFunny Is not funny.]]) I've seen better sides of beef been run over by a ''combine!''

** The Medic attempts to revive the Heavy by kissing him on the nose. A ray of light appears, and Heavy rises while laughing, starts to announce that he's alive... and [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext inexplicably]] bursts into LudicrousGibs. The "family-friendly" version instead has a sign knock him out.

* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: When Engineer confesses the murder of Heavy and is questioned on why he would do such a thing, Engineer goes on a tirade where he states that it was because the Heavy was fat, ugly, and dumb.

'''Heavy:''' (''after the Engineer confesses to the crime'') But ''why?''\\

''Spy:'' YouMonster\\

'''Heavy':' (''after the Engineer confesses to the crime'') But ''why?''\\

* FakeShemp: Almost all of the ''Team Fortress 2'' cast featured in the video reprised their roles for "The [=TF2=] Voice Actors Recreate Heavy is Dead", with the exceptions of Grant Goodeve (the Engineer) and Rick May (the Soldier), whose lines remain [[ManipulativeEditing sentence-mixed]] archived audio, due to Grant Goodeve preferring to stay out of the public eye and Rick May having passed away a few months after the original ''Heavy is Dead''.

* HypocriticalHumor: The Spy gives an [[SurroundedByIdiots exasperated]] "''We know!''" when Soldier informs him that the Heavy is dead. Less than a minute later, the Soldier tells the RED team that a pistol was used to kill the Heavy, the Spy shouts "The Heavy is dead?!" in a genuinely shocked voice.

* PokingDeadThingsWithAStick: The Heavy pokes the Heavy's corpse with a stick to confirm that the Heavy is dead. [[SurrealHumor Don't think too hard about this]].

** The gameshow gag -- Spy and Engineer tell Sniper that the Heavy is dead. A Series/WhoWantsToBeAMillionaire-style display promptly appears.

* DoomedProtagonist: The titular Heavy, who dies after 2 seconds of screentime. Inverted at the end, when he's literally [[EverybodysDeadDave the only surviving character]].

* ButtMonkey: Poor Scout. Nobody reacts when he points out that the [[RunningGag Heavy is dead]], the Spy sends him home in embarrassment, his mother ''immediately'' kills them both in a fiery crash when he ''does'' leave with her, and then when the Medic tries to "heal" them, all three of them ''explode''.

* HopeSpot: The Medic attempts to revive the Heavy by kissing him on the nose. A ray of light appears, and Heavy rises while laughing, starts to announce that he's alive... and [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext inexplicably]] bursts into LudicrousGibs.

* SparedByTheAdaptation: In the "family-friendly edition" of the video, Demoman throws his revolver at Sniper and knocks him out cold, complete with sparkling stars, though he is still treated as "dead".

* ObviouslyEvil: The BLU Engineer is found alone with the Heavy's body and is the only one present not from the RED team, but nobody ever suspects he's the killer. He only gets found out because the RED Demo makes a completely random guess that he later dismisses as a joke.

** Engineer now falls over in his death with his hands crossed and holding a rose.
** Lampshaded when Spy attempts to hang himself. This time, the Website/YouTube logo cuts the rope, preventing his suicide. It's ultimately ineffective, though, as a train then turns around just to run him over.
* BullyingTheDisabled: The Engineer killed the Heavy because of his weight, unattractiveness, and unintelligence, something that he's more than happy to gloat about after his cover is blown.

** Demoman now kills Sniper by chucking the revolver at him instead of a headshot, complete with [[CirclingBirdies circling stars]].

* DiesDifferentlyInAdaptation:
** In the "Family-Friendly" edition, Spy's suicide is prevented by [=YouTube=], but then is abruptly run over by a train.
** In a similar manner, Demoman does not shoot Sniper, but rather throws his revolver at him.

* DiesDifferentlyInAdaptation: In the "Family-Friendly" edition, Spy's suicide is prevented by [=YouTube=], but then is abruptly run over by a train.

* KilledMidSentence: The Spy does this, to ''himself'', after deciding to end it all [[SeenItAllSuicide after the main conflict is resolved.]]
