* The entire fate of Jurassic Park as a whole can be counted as one major tearjerker. This is a place that was to be the greatest theme park in the history of the world, with real living dinosaurs, animals that have been extinct for millions of years, on display for the entire world to come and see. The mere concept of it is purely magical, and because of one man's greed the entire thing is brought to ruin before it can even have the chance to live. John Hammond created something incredible with just the power of his dreams, something that was unfortunately not to be.

** Hell, the mere fact that the volcano erupts at all, meaning that even if Jurassic Park hadn't failed and had actually opened as planned, it would've been destroyed anyway just two decades later.

* The third velociraptor that Tim and Lexi lock in the refridgerator probably suffered a long, painful death of starvation or hypothermia. While it was a dangerous and violent animal, and the kids were right to lock it in there in self-defence, it's still a bit sad, especially seeing as its siblings at least got to go out fighting.

* Because of his AdaptationalHeroism, John Hammond is a pretty tragic character when you think about it. He's worked for years to realize his dream, and it looked as if it had finally come true. Instead, his dream crumbles around him and results in the horrible deaths of about five people, three of whom were completely undeserved, and his own grandkids are nearly victim as well. As a result, he's forced to abandon everything he's worked for. In the second-to-last scene, while Alan and Ellie assist Lex, Tim, and Ian into the helicopter to leave the island, it's pretty heartwrenching to see Hammond mournfully take one last look at Isla Nublar and hear a ''Brachiosaurus'' call, as Alan briefly stops to look and listen with him, before gently escorting him to the helicopter. Then, on the ride back (pictured above), all he can do is tearfully look as his mosquito preserved in amber jewel on his cane, the only surviving symbol (for the time being) of his dream.

--->'''Hammond:''' You know the first attraction I ever built when I came down south from Scotland? Was a flea circus, Petticoat Lane. Really quite wonderful. We had a wee trapeze, a carousel...and a seesaw. They all moved, motorized of course, but people would swear they could see the fleas. "Oh, I see the fleas, mummy! Can't you see the fleas?" Clown fleas, high wire fleas, fleas on parade... But with this place...I wanted to show them something that wasn't an illusion. Something that was real. Something that they could...see, and touch. An aim not devoid of merit.

In the midst of visually awesome dinosaur action and scares, there's more than a few tearjerking moments in ''Jurassic Park''. After all, it's a movie that was made by Creator/StevenSpielberg, a man who knows how to make us cry.

* Also during the scene where Mr. Hammond is talking about his Flea Circus with Ellie and he starts talking about redoing Jurassic Park with even better with complete control, Ellie tells him that he never had control of it to begin with and that it was all an illusion just like the Flea Circus. She also tearfully mentions that she was completely overwhelmed by the power of Jurassic Park and how she didn’t even have the respect of the power that it had and now that it’s out the only thing they should be worried about are the people they love and care about being Alan, Lex, and Tim, who are out there in harm's way.
* The scene right after Tim has been shocked and thrown from the electric fence is somewhat heart wrenching, as Lex cries, while Alan gives CPR to her unconscious possibly dead brother. Although he does regain consciousness, he is considerably weakened by the experience, and can barely walk.

Although he does regain consciousness, he is considerably weakened by the experience, and can barely walk.\----

** His dream gets a bit of a BittersweetEnding in ''[[Film/TheLostWorldJurassicPark The Lost World]]'', however. While he wasn't able to build a park and share his dream with the world, and even more people die on Site B, at least his dinosaurs are allowed to thrive there.
** [[Film/JurassicWorld And eventually, his dream finally comes true, even if he never lives to see it.]] But then it gets reversed again with how Jurassic World turns out. THEN the knife gets twisted further in ''[[Film/JurassicWorldFallenKingdom Fallen Kingdom]]'', where his old company has since been taken over by unscrupulous scientists (namely Dr. Wu) and is now using non-authentic genetically-engineered hybrid dinosaurs to sell as weapons and make money, corrupting his dream. And Mount Sibo erupts and destroys Nublar, rendering quite a few species extinct again.
*** ''Fallen Kingdom'' also reveals that he parted ways with his business partner/friend Benjamin Lockwood for ethical reasons, namely that Lockwood cloned his daughter Maisie.
