if youtube recommends this video these days then its probably a message from the god jkjk please don't swan dive to death life is beautiful you still have a lot to give away to others stay safe during this pandemic time fam the fight is not over yet
@蠍座zilla its displeasing to watch im sure im not the only one this is a good game like wtf you might be desensitized and not think its a big deal but its annoying.
Say what??? I have been playing this game for 20 years, know all the levels by heart, and I had no idea that you could roll like that in the air. Life hits you in the most mysterious ways.
Lol same. One of my first games. Recently finished them all one by one after playing again after many years. Just this year I found out that in TR Chronicles you could get down from a crouching position just rolling forward by pressing a combination of keys (and you can even equip your guns in the air then) and that you can get a different version of 2nd level in The Last Revelation if you get all secrets in level 1. And only now I found out you can do flips like that.
A S i like the ragdoll animation in Rise of the Tomb Raider.. I was just messing around and i was spamming the climb button and idk why but i suddenly went inside the rock wall where you climb and Lara screamed a falling scream 3 or 4 times and then she teleported TO THE TOP and died and after she fell she flew across the mountain aswell omg
I still kind of miss the “death😩” noises she used to make in the original trilogy when it was in a long fall. They knew exactly what they were doing with those sound effects and I remember Duke Nukem: Time To Kill making fun of her death voices
Completely agree! Just a quick crunchy flop and death. Compared to how she continues making death noises while sliding across the ground in the newer ones.
@@BangerSoundtracks The developers of the legend trilogy wanted to keep the old brutal deaths but the censors wouldn't let them. They talk about it in one of the Anniversary in game talks.
@@MegabyteUnleashed Ah that explains it then. I only ever finished the first legends game, and Anniversary which I assume used the same engine. I lost track of the rest.
I liked the old ones. It was horrific & you knew the adventure is over. The ragdolls are too comical. I don't want a Tomb Raider game to ever feel silly or funny
Smashing into the ground is one of the things where the lack of ragdoll physics makes it way more impactful. It just carries across how you'd be a squashed tomato after falling from great heights, rather than a bouncy rubber ball.
It says a lot about the gaming industry that the actual impacts in the earlier games look more realistic than then shoddy rag doll effects they use now.
@Danster_Dani4 Yeah, here we aren't supposed to get out, but people don't give a dang, everyone comes and goes as they please, some don't even wear masks. And for the OP, it is odd, I never got Tomb Raider on my feed before, I haven't even googled that in a couple of years ago (I used to play the PS1 game, but that was all, well, maybe the NDS one too) RUclips seems to randomly select content now.
Unless you accidentally hit a platform on the way down. My kid brian used to think, aww at least that isn't so bad, she just 'normal' dead and not frying in lava dead.
Megan G really? Girl you missing out. To be fair, I didn’t know about the swan dive until I started messing around with the keys on my keyboard playing Last Revelation. I figured it out on accident.
On the other hand you have tons of details to the pixel and un-equated **cough** realism. Clearly shows what kind of details they -waste- throw their money at...
I could be mistaken but I think that they started to remove her gruesome deaths in the ps2 era because it was seen as "too violent". As a result, she does a bad ragdoll as opposed to the crunch that we heard in the original PS1 games.
A+ for the consistency on Tomb Raider: Anniversary. Lara dies while landing face first on the hand of Midas, but still transforms to a golden statue regardless 🤣👍🏿
It's a shame this video doesn't feature her AoD scream which my sister and I always found hilarious. Pretty sure the biggest drop you could jump in that game was down this huge buried tower, in the Hall of Stories I wanna say?
I remember when I first to discovered how to do a swan dive by accident when I was kid, playing the tutorial level in TR2. I just sat into stunned silence for a couple seconds, then burst out laughing. I didn't even know what a swan dive looked like, yet instinctively, I knew what to call it. Fun times.
Ah the 90's, when you could show a far more brutally honest (if graphically outdated) death in video games because sensibilities weren't so easily offended. Honestly the first Playstation games are just so much more impactful then the modern gen's ridiculous ragdolling. The crunch, the twisted neck, the broken body... Makes me shudder.
Interesting that still to this day, the first Tomb Raiders still have the most realistic fall death animations, with the body crumple in a heap and grusome sound of bones breaking. None of the bouncyness.
....Ok! I've been playing these games since they first came out in '96 and yet I was today years old when I realised that Lara did a fancy flip when you do a high Swan Dive.
The third one at 0:15 is the best. There's even a stealth fighter that flies by! I honestly thought she was going to get killed by that judging by how close it was!

Terrible id delete this its like making fun of the game and joking like thats not even funny js.

@@Andrew-bv2qd than all of you suck this is a good
I love that you chose fairly scenic places to jump off of. Lmao
Swan Dive is beautiful
So are Lara's death place
I did literally the same, always saving the game just to pull of some impressive suicides
@@Andrew-bv2qd gfggggggfggv
Properties of altitude:
1. Lethal fall height
2. Scenic view
Best one was diving into Midas' hand.
Voice actor: aaaaahhhhhhhh
Sound engineer: lightly presses on a bag of chips
HAHAHAHAH OMFG u killed me 😂 😂 😂
"do a backflip!"
depressed lara:
We almost had three flips...
0:51 I like how she dies and turns her into gold at the same time
Damn ! In new engines it would never happen !
not the best thing you said about a woman
It because she land on midas hand right?
The golden concussion
@@henrilabat right if you touch it in game you turn to gold so he decided to land on there of all places

Thrillseeker8922 seriously?I know but for me sometimes it's hard to perform
Whaaaaat... one of the best parts of the game
0:59 *screams*
*doesn't break form*
That's dedication.
That i never got, but was still amused by. How are you gonna dive AND scream??
The ragdoll mechanic in Anniversary is ridiculous sometimes. I laughed when I swan dived into protruding swords and Lara just flew across the room. 😭

As a kid in 1996 this blew my mind. I was like "wow! This is so true. It's ok to land on her feet but dies when she lands on her head. SO REALISTIC"
Bro i couldnt even get passed the first tiger in tr3.
But i swan dived every nearly every part of the map.
@@Bunni_boi TR3 is tough ngl. But I know most levels rn very well) Except for London maybe and Area 51XD aand AntarticaXD
0:57 me on my way to work.
Ive been laughing at that for the past 15 minutes straight omg😂
Me when my alarm goes off in the morning 😂
Thanks for making my day
Old comments but well done sir! Lmfao!
LMAO
I love how she so decisively and artistically throws herself to her own death
It should be like when you are maxed out on salvage, she says something like "I can't do that right now".
The classics deaths are more gruesome. You hear bones break.
why am I watching this at 1am
Dahyun Kim so you can swan dive to your sleep
Same here. It is literally 1 am for me now when I clicked on this video
Dude... Its 1:03am rn... wow
Im watching this at 3 am
dadana I’ve seen this comment at exactly 1 am lmao
One where turns herself into gold after death was epic.
True. I gotta try that sometime:D
The death animation is actually prettier in the first 3 titles than the most recent ones! Ragdoll don't always deliver the best outcome.

I love how In the classic games when she falls to death if there’s music the music instantly stops and it’s dead silence ~~ ☠️
00:53 "You're in God's hands now girl"
why did this video become popular lately...?
chile anyways happy birthday swan drive kween Lara Croft and happy 25th anniversary TR
I don't know
tomb raider is in the zeitgeist
How did this reply get 13 likes in 14 hours lol

Shadow of the Tomb Raider was free on PS4 last month XD Thats how i got here
I loved swan diving her in the last boss into the lava where she screamed three times in a row.
Absolutely. I loved loading that level up just to dive off that edge
@@benwilson2373 I used to do that accidentally when I jumped too many times during my old LPsXD
Unless you accidentally hit a platform on the way down. My kid brian used to think, aww at least that isn't so bad, she just 'normal' dead and not frying in lava dead.
We're such sadistic fucks! We all done this to Lara through the years XD
In Shadow of the Tomb Raider I was doing swan dives into the lava on the forge mission for Abigail.
When RUclips stops reccomending and starts giving you straight hints.
The animation for the PS1 games was sublime. So graceful, balletic and confident. I don't know why they changed it.
Soulless reboots and money.
@@zion6680 lara's movements n the original games are better than all of the reboots.
@@zion6680 yes you are right 👍🏻 the new reboot are nothing compared to the originals
My God, I've been playing these games for 22 years and I never knew about the rolling dive😳
Megan G really? Girl you missing out. To be fair, I didn’t know about the swan dive until I started messing around with the keys on my keyboard playing Last Revelation. I figured it out on accident.
@@Blaquebarbgamer I know I feel so silly! I've been playing this game for years!
Me neither
Me too lol 🤣👍🏻 we dont end to learn in Our life 🤠
/!\ Useless fact /!\ In french we call this movement "The jump of angel"
Voilà...
In Turkish it is called "balıklama". It can be translated as something like "as a fish does it". LOL!
'Le saut de l'ange' actually.
@Coraline Lovegood haha wie sich unsere wörter immer komisch anhören gegenüber andere sprachen 😂
In hungary its "Az angyal ugrása"
guess russian's variation is ласточка but not sure
I can just hear the “I swear I’ll jump” and the casual “do a flip”
I love how she was still turning into gold when diving onto Midas' hand.
Great video! A little shocked to see that even the swan dive is worse in the newer games. Wow.
The worst is that Shadow of the tomb raider doesn't even allow players to perform a swan dive death ;A;
Soon they remove dieing from gaming. 🌝
A shame that you can't do this in the new games anymore
Well I haven't got a chance to try SOTTR's Swan Dive but in ROTTR you can swan dive to death though xD
@@Andrew-bv2qd Really? I didn't know that. Never experimented with that in RoTTR.
@@IGamingStation You can watch ROTTR's Swan Dive Death at the very end of my video. It was a little bit tricky to do that
@Nyah Desu Rise of the Tomb Raider calls it a swan dive, but okay.
@@Whimsy3692 but it isn't.. another thing they can't do right. :(
Her scream at 0:58 had me dying and thanks for the video brings back memories I used to spend hours doing this 😂😂😂😂
yasss we just love how ridiculous the ragdoll deaths in the gamesss
10 years of youtube has finally brought me to this video...my quest is complete 🙏🏻
I KNEW I WASN'T THE ONLY ONE! This is my favorite way to load a save when i screw something up
the hand of midas was GOLD.
The old tomb raider games look fun as hell
The first recorded scream was so satisfying no other could beat it.
0:50 that jump is gold
Notice how the animation gets WORSE as the series goes on.
On the other hand you have tons of details to the pixel and un-equated **cough** realism. Clearly shows what kind of details they -waste- throw their money at...
The last dive was hilariously bad
I could be mistaken but I think that they started to remove her gruesome deaths in the ps2 era because it was seen as "too violent". As a result, she does a bad ragdoll as opposed to the crunch that we heard in the original PS1 games.
The contrast between the music and these stupid deaths is hilarious and iconic lolol
A+ for the consistency on Tomb Raider: Anniversary. Lara dies while landing face first on the hand of Midas, but still transforms to a golden statue regardless 🤣👍🏿
At least she switched her dying pose. Can’t keep laying the same way after dying.
It's cool that back in 1996 the developers had the detail of implementing those two little useless tricks, the handstand and the swan dive.
0:57 is the first game to feature that she knows she is gonna die?
no she also screamed in tr2 if you fall from enough height
It's a shame this video doesn't feature her AoD scream which my sister and I always found hilarious.
Pretty sure the biggest drop you could jump in that game was down this huge buried tower, in the Hall of Stories I wanna say?
@@AelfricBlack Not if you swan dived 🤣
@@TheEdwardAlchemist tomb of ancients under the archaeological dig, right before hall of seasons :-)
@@QueAwkwardNoises Ooh lemme try that rn brb

This was very fun to do as a child.
I’m going to go to therapy now, bye.
😂 😂
The part were she turns to gold will forever be my fave death sequence of all time
Perfect choice of BGM, made the deaths elegant

Honestly the first Playstation games are just so much more impactful then the modern gen's ridiculous ragdolling. The crunch, the twisted neck, the broken body... Makes me shudder.
That's just because you haven't seen what a realistic ragdoll looks like.
I never understood why lara would scream in TR:L-TR:U when she Swan dived off a cliff... like sis, you CHOSE to swan dive, that wasn't an accident 🤣
hahahahaha!!! 😂 😂
Very nice spots to jump from! Well done!
0:11 what?! I didn’t know you could do this!
Glad to know I didn't miss out on anything here
Interesting that still to this day, the first Tomb Raiders still have the most realistic fall death animations, with the body crumple in a heap and grusome sound of bones breaking. None of the bouncyness.
0:53 you just had to give her that midas touch to go with her death xD
Swan diving onto the Midas hand was a nice touch.
Lara had became Assassin's creed XD
wait AC had lộn đầu deaths ???
@@Andrew-bv2qd He’s referring to them looking like jumps of faith from the AC franchise.
I always love the open world feels of TR
somehow got less realistic over time regardless of the graphic quality
Ragdoll physics
Me when the last clip was shown: "Yeah, that could work. Ah, forget it."
Swan diving directly onto the hand of Midas was pure class. 😅
Soooo, I'm not he only one who likes to do that:)
Btw I subbed, hope it helps)
Huge TR fan:) May your channel grow^^
Ezio: You're doing it wrong
I love that moment when she lands on the hand
Can't believe the physics of older ones were better.
The fact that she might actually still be alive after a couple of these falls is the extra crunchy part.
Oh God! That last one I felt the most that must really hurt the most
Some incredible places to swan die from.
This is what stuck in my head most about these games
I think it's hilarious how in the early games she just **crumples**
Love the music. That was in the Croft mainor in Tomb Raider 2
I used to love pulling myself up onto a ledge push the dive buttons. Doing a hand stand when pulling her self up
When you want to hear the cracking sound but the music just become louder and louder at the end
I've been playing Tomb Raider for 25 years and I NEVER KNEW THAT LARA COULD SOMERSAULT WHILE DIVING
HOW DID I MISS THIS
The older ones were actually more realistic in the movement and brutal looking.
hand crafted animations vs putting it all in the hands of ragdoll physics
....Ok! I've been playing these games since they first came out in '96 and yet I was today years old when I realised that Lara did a fancy flip when you do a high Swan Dive.
This was strangely gratifying
What’s the music playing, loved it since the Venice lvl in TR2
Andrew Simm it plays in TR2 when you press the button in the ball room to play it. I think it is called Venice violins.
@@angeloffish I believe it also plays in her house in the music room.
So majestic... And then SPLAT!
Its amusing to see death animation not changing until angel of darkness..when rogdoll was intruduced
The third one at 0:15 is the best. There's even a stealth fighter that flies by! I honestly thought she was going to get killed by that judging by how close it was!
Damned I'm 20 years late but... How do you flip again in the air after the 1st jump?
DUDE THIS IS SICK HOW DID THEY NOT STOP ADDING IT
This is so relaxing.
I’ve played almost every tomb raider and to this day I still can’t do this
Respect for swan diving into the golden god hand thing, surprised it works still
"Do a flip!"
_-Bender_
Hahaha!!
It's 2021 and I just figured it out that this mid-jumping animation 0:11 was a thing. Thanks video.
Doing a swan dive from any higher places can be deadly where there is no water.
I like how the death gets more censored/undetailed with each generation.
"Aim for the bushes."
The falling from heights deaths in newest reboot games are just sad, there's no fun in them whats so ever.
All these years and she still can't jump into the water.
That crunch in the classics.
In the older games you can hear her bones break as she lands
that dive reminds me of when The Sims can dive off a diving board and die instantly if its no water there
Originally, Rice of the Tomb Raider doesn't have a jump like the old games lost in the water.
I love how the title is 100% accurate
When you're already dead but still turned into gold.
When track 35 started playing I almost cried. It's the sound track to my first youtube video.
