I don\\\'t see how, regardless of the reasons, (though depending on the reasons it might make it fit in another trope in some cases) that suicidally trying to attack a character you have no chance of beating by miles and all you\\\'d accomplish was dying while knowing this is the case when you have the option of simply running away doesn\\\'t qualify as TooDumbToLive. This doesn\\\'t even qualify as SuicidalOverconfidence, Frieza could just in his 1st form kill Bardock 50 times over, Bardock was just going to die pointlessly and Bardock knew this, but he attacked anyway. If Bardock didn\\\'t know how powerful Frieza was and got killed or had nowhere to go anyway it wouldn\\\'t be TooDumbToLive, but he did know and all he had to do was jump in a Saiyan pod and head to pretty much anywhere in the universe, in fact he was on another planet when he first learned for sure that Frieza had betrayed them and was going to destroy the planet, so first he had to come to Planet Vegeta despite knowing Frieza was going to destroy it to begin with. It\\\'s also worthwhile to note that Bardock was badly injured at the time too, so he wasn\\\'t even fighting at his best.

This isn\\\'t like a character getting hopelessly beat by another character that surpasses them and then pulling out some heroic resolve to beat them anyway, Frieza was so many orders of magnitude above Bardock at that point that none of that could matter, and again, Bardock knew this, all the Saiyans did.
