I'm Alive
A Stock Phrase that's often said after a harrowing, near-death experience. It can also be used as a Badass Boast after coming Back from the Dead.


Examples

Western Animation
  • In Beast Wars, Tarantulas exclaims a variation of this after being restored to his new body. Parallels to Frankenstein completely intentional.
    Tarantulas: I live... I live!
  • In the second episode of Gargoyles, Goliath shouts two variations of this in rapid succession.
    Goliath: We're alive! We survived!
  • Deadpool screams this trope with glee at the end of Hulk Vs.. Wolverine when it's revealed that he's the only Weapon X member (out of himself, Sabretooth, Lady Deathstrike, and Omega Red) to survive the Hulk's rampage. As he belts this out a second time, the Hulk lands on him. Deadpool's agonizing groans can be faintly heard afterward.
  • In The Incredibles after Dash is flung off one of the hovering vehicle things, crashes through the rainforest canopy, and saves himself by clinging to a vine, he steps onto the ground, checks himself over and says "I'm Alive, yahoo!" in surprise and elation.
    • And promptly draws the attention of the Big Bad's Mooks again.
  • I think one Veggie Tales movie has a character say this lie in the bloopers after falling off in the set (in the scene, it's a very high cliff)
