Did Zira really die?

[Mike]

^so you've said... umm... four times now? XD Seven?

[SnowyCheetah]

And yet people still seem to act as if I hadn't

So, I think we can agree that she could not die from the impact of the water ALONE

[Mike]

either that, or they're dismissing your opinion as a deviant outlier ^.^

[Pop]

actually, I believe the impact alone could easily have killed her - realistcally, anyway...

It's just that when I watched it again it didn't seem to be that long of a fall. But that's very true, if she had fallen at 60 mph(which could be possible if Disney made the fall slow for effect like I said), she would of died easily.

I feel like we are just repeating what we've already said xD.

So to settle this. I believe both are very possible. It's almost a 50/50 chance, with death just being 2% above survival. But to avoid arguments, let's just say its a perfect 50/50 chance xD.

I used to think she lived somehow, as a child. However now it seems like that's far fetched. Disney is well-known for pulling off "Disney Deaths" and reviving people however it seems like there's no way she could have survived, and TLK is rather very dark.

She was either crushed by the logs, pushed down by the logs and drowned, drowned, injured due the fall, injured due to the logs, or all of them. Even if she survived, and made it onto land, she would have not survived for long. No one was going to come for her, and she would have defiantly had fatal injuries.

[SnowyCheetah]

Ditto. There's just too much going against her for her to have anything more than an extremely slim chance of survival...

How could she be crushed? logs,unlike rocks, float in water. She could've grabbed on to one of them and floated downstream.

[SnowyCheetah]

Except that they were all traveling erradically and would have been wet and slippery, and quite difficult to grab onto after you fell from such a height and hurt yourself lol.

[Mike]

and not only that, but just the sheer number of logs was working against her. Even if she survived the fall, somehow swam back to the surface, and by miracle managed to grab one, she would very likely have been crushed between that log and another one, just like Nuka in the gorge.

[SnowyCheetah]

Yeah - if there was even a gap large enough for her to get up through.
