History Main / OutOfTheInferno

** Robo does this again in the opening of ''Film/RoboCop2''. After his car has had two rockets shot at it, causing it to flip over and then shot up and blown up, RoboCop steps out of the destroyed police car, no worse for wear and ready to take out the criminals that did it.

* Similar to the opening of ''Film/RoboCop2'', [=RoboCop=] again walks out of the wrecking of a destroyed police car with no damage in the opening of the PilotMovie for ''Series/RoboCopTheSeries'' after "Pudface" Morgan shoots a rocket directly at the car and blows it up.

** [[Film/ThTerminator The first Out of the Inferno walk]] in the series was heavily damaged, unlike most of the others this case; the flames served to burn off his skin and clothes, revealing the metal skeleton underneath.

* ''Franchise/{{Terminator}}'' series is very fond of this one, and definitely popularized it. In fact, the whole series exists ''because'' of this trope: JamesCameron based the first film on a fever dream he once had, in which a robot skeleton strode out of an inferno after a fleeing woman.

* In ''TheMaskOfZorro'', [[spoiler:all the imprisoned miners]] emerge from the smoke after one of the [[UpToEleven most intense explosions ever filmed]] blew everything around them to splinters.
* Used in ''HighlanderIITheQuickening'', when Connor [=MacLeod=] gets hit by a fuel truck. Fortunately, he's just regained both his youth and immortality, allowing him to stride out of the resulting fireball unharmed, dramatic music blaring, long coat blowing, sword clenched in his hand, Christopher Lambert doing his best "badass face" (okay, [[DullSurprise vacant stare]], but it is Christopher Lambert). Sadly, that scene is just about the only cool thing in ''Highlander 2''.

* The JohnWoo movie ''HardBoiled'' has a big one of these near the end of the movie by [[spoiler:the BigBad Johnny Wong after the hospital is blown straight to hell]]. And to make matters even worse, [[spoiler:he's [[PutDownYourGunAndStepAway taken Tequila's partner Alan hostage]]]].

* In the ''ElHazardTheMagnificentWorld'' manga, there's two more Demon God androids than in the anime; the side characters come up with a plan for dealing with one that involves a concentrated attack to hit one of them (Jinnistacia) right before she fires her main attack; theoretically lowering shields to do so. The result was a tremendous explosion; [[http://www.bladeandepsilon.com/ifujinpics.htm which she walks out of]], all it did was destroy her NiceHat.

* In ''DigimonDataSquad'',[[spoiler: [=ShineGreymon=] Burst Mode fights Belphemon/Kurata in the city. After easily dodging all of Belphemon[=/=]Kurata's attacks and causing great pain to them with his flame swords, [=ShineGreymon=] Burst Mode lights the whole street on fire and combines this with a [[TheSlowWalk slow walk]] toward Kurata and one of the most absolute hate filled {{Death Glare}}s in Anime history, all to incite incredible fear in the horribly evil MadScientist before finally finishing him off. This is without a doubt a CrowningMomentOfAwesome]].

* In ''Kingdom Under Fire: The Crusaders'', upon Regnier's first appearance you are told to lure him into a forest and proceed to light said forest on fire using your archer's fire arrows, [[TemptingFate followed with a comment of how the enemy have fallen]] along with some praise of a job well done. Cut to a [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YKzHs6iibbk scene of the fire]] with Regnier's entire unit marching out unaffected, as the music starts up.

* Megaman does this in the credits of '''MegaMan7.'''

* Most of the villains of ''Manga/DragonBall Z'' have done this at least once, but Cell in particular seems pretty fond of it.

* In the second season of ''The Familiar of Zero'', when Anies is attacked by a fire mage, she is engulfed in a fireball. The bad guys thinks he's won and of course is set to go on his merry way. However, Anies jumps out of the flames, the only thing missing is her cape, and proceeds to run that mage through with her sword.

* [[UnluckyCHildhoodFriend Anya]] attempted to do this in ''MahouSenseiNegima'' when she reappeared before Negi. She was doing pretty well too, until she capped it off with a dramatic FlungClothing that ended up with her robe catching on fire. Then when she tried to put it out, her hair caught on fire. Then when she ran around in a panic, her skirt caught on fire. See kids? This is why you shouldn't try this at home.

-->--'''''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer''''', "Once More With Feeling"

* The title character does this in the first RoboCop film. Robo calmly strides out of an exploding gas station, with only a minor amount of surface soot on his [[DirtForcefield improbably shiny armor]], and shoots out the back tire of Emil's motorbike as he tries to flee the scene.

* In ''TheMaskOfZorro'', the ''entire group'' of imprisoned miners emerge from the smoke after one of the [[UpToEleven most intense explosions ever filmed]] blew everything around them to splinters.

* Tony Stark/Iron Man in ''Film/IronMan'' is particularly fond of the trope, turning his back on, and walking in slow-mo from, some form of explosion at least once per movie.

* ''TransformersAnimated''. Starscream, who has had a ''very'' bad day, is walking away with the PowerCrystal and looking truly disgusted with the universe. He ignores the Autobots, who blast him from behind after he walks past. When the flames clear, the only change in Starscream is that he is ''now facing them,'' and looking every bit as pissed. He proceeds to open a ''serious'' can of whoop-[[CallARabbitASmeerp skidplate]].

* Tony Stark/Iron Man in "Film/IronMan" is particularly fond of the trope, turning his back on, and walking in slow-mo from, some form of explosion at least once per movie.

* In AvatarTheLastAirbender, [[spoiler:[[PersonOfMassDestruction Avatar Roku]]]] does this during the Winter Solstice. Though, to be fair, it's less coming out of the inferno than bending the inferno to their will.

* Played straight in "The Tarnished Angel" storyline of Creator/KurtBusiek's ''AstroCity''.

See alse OutrunTheFireball, for the NotSoStoic version.

* Done with V (or is it?) in VForVendetta, utterly terrifying one of the few survivors.

** That's more of an UnflinchingWalk. You can combine it with this trope by walking out of a fire that then explodes. Exploding fire.
