** The Creator/DanielCraig era took this up to eleven with Bond. He survives his Aston Martian flipping over seven times and then brutally tortured in ''Film/{{Casino Royale|2006}}'', falling from a plane and pulling his parachute at the last second in ''Film/QuantumOfSolace'', getting shot multiple times in the chest, falling from a moving train and off a bridge into a river from several stories in ''Film/{{Skyfall}}'' and walks off getting his skull drilled into in ''Film/{{Spectre}}''. [[spoiler: In ''Film/NoTimeToDie'' Bond tanks several explosions at point blank range and during the climax is shot multiple times and poisoned by the BigBad Safin, but that doesn't seem to prevent Bond from breaking the guy's arm and headshotting him with a coup de grace. It literally takes a MacrossMissileMassacre [[TheresNoKillLikeOverkill from the Royale Navy]] targeting the IslandBase, for 007 to be KilledOffForReal.]]

* 'Ronnie' in ''Film/TheTripper'', like most slasher movie villains. He gets shot multiple times by Buzz and goes down, only to get back up. Samantha then hits him the head with [[DropTheHammer a claw hammer]], and continues to pound his head in after he drops. His body then disappears from the crime scene, leaving his mask behind, and he turns up in the film's final scene to murder Frank Baker.

* Cactus Jack Slade in the Western parody ''Film/TheVillain'' casually survives numerous examples of violence up to and including getting hit by a train. Not surprising, since the movie is essentially a live-action

** In ''Film/DoctorStrange2016'', the titular sorcerer is very much Made of Iron, though it's worth noting that unlike the previous examples, he has no superpowers, armored suit, cybernetics or alien physiology to justify how he survives the amount damage he gets throughout the movie. Even before he learns magic the good doctor survives a massive car crash that involved his Lamborghini go spiraling off a highway and smashing into power station, this alone should've killed Stephen but the worst he gets is crippled hands. As a sorcerer Strange tanks a combined beatdown from Kaecilius and his followers and even a [[SpontaneousWeaponCreation Space Shard]] through the torso [[spoiler: the same thing that mortally wounded the Ancient One]]. ''Film/DoctorStrangeInTheMultiverseOfMadness'' continues this with Strange getting smashed through buildings by tentacle demons and put through the absolute wringer by the BigBad [[spoiler: Scarlet Witch]] but besides a brief unconsciousness, a couple of scratches and being out of breath the Sorcerer is totally fine. Same goes for [[spoiler:Wanda]] herself or more accurately the alternate version of herself she possesses who survives a brutal fight with Illuminati, goes through AgonyOfTheFeet and even when she gets her mind back, is still healthy enough to fly back home. This should be expected coming from the [[Creator/SamRaimi director]] of ''Film/EvilDead'' though.
