YASWT: What kills Vader in EPVI?

[GTaudiophile]

I mean, he only loses his mechanical hand to Luke. And he experiences far less of the Emperor's "Dark Force Lightning" than Luke. So what kills him? Old age just catches up or what?

 

[Oscar1613]

luke isnt a machine, vader is

 

[Mo0o]

I think the electricity fvcks up his suit, so he can't live

 

[silverpig]

Luke took off his helmet thing. That's what did him in.

But yeah, he was dying from the dark lightning crap already.

 

[ed21x]

i'm assuming after he lost his 'goodness' and went to the dark side, after losing that as well, he had nothing left but to die.

BS! In EPV we see Vader's helmet taken off. The general walks in on him as his helmet descends.

 

[episodic]

Be careful, there is an offical star wars thread. My thread got crapped on and locked a moment ago.

Now on the other hand. . . I think VADER just died because of the dark lightning crap.

Vader never took a 'trainee' either. Maybe the cycle of Sith's need a trainee. . .

He was in a hyperbolic chamber. As other said the lighting fried his crap and taking off the mask just made it quicker.

 

[GTaudiophile]

Of all the reasons, I think it comes down to no longer having a need to live. He lost his will to live.

Vader: My mask. Let me look upon you with my own eyes.
Luke: But, you'll die...

BS! He gets his helmet taken off regularly for some reason:

From EP:V, Chapter 22 of the DVD (44:37)

 

[Excelsior]

I just figured it was that the lightning fried his life support system in the suit....

 

[Rudee]

I read somewhere that it was Irritable Bowel Syndrome took the wind out of Vaders sails.

Fixed.

 

[GTaudiophile]

Or perhaps... helmet != mask?

Proves he was ALREADY dying. The helmet/mask makes no difference.

If someone's dying of cancer and you shoot them dead they didn't die of cancer...

 

[Schadenfreude]

The story wouldn't be as dramatic if Vader lived. Period.

God all y'all are nerds.

 

[DanTMWTMP]

roflmao @ thread. nerd fights are very amusing, although I am in a lot of them

 

[glen]

Did the dark lightning really mess up the Emporor's face?
