Who, physically gets hurt during the most through out the movie?
I would have to say Zazu.
1. Almost got eaten by Scar.
2. Got pounced on by Simba.
3. Got whacked by an elephant.
4. Got ran over by ostriches.
5. Flew into a rhino's rear end.
6. Almost fell off a waterfall.
7.Got gassed on by zebras.
8. Got stampeded by a bunch of animals.
9. Got his feathers picked at by monkeys.
10. A rhino sat on him.
11. Birdy-boiler scene.
12. Got thwacked by Scar's paw.

I'm curious about your opinion. And remember, this is physical pain we are talking about.

Ooh misunderstood
Well on topic i'd say either mufasa , because to kill this guy it would take lots of stepping on
Or
Scar. The poor guy got eaten by angry hyenas while burning

The hyenas do eat their prey alive so I would say Scar, or maybe some of the hyenas as well who were kicked down from the Pride Rock into the fire, they basically burned alive

Mufasa got plenty battered in the stampede, over and over. Then he was thrown off a cliff. I say him, since most of Zazu's pain was for comedic effect and mostly wasn't that severe

Yes, but what about when Zazu was knocked unconscious by Scar. I don't think that was for comedic effect.

Not all of it is, but Zazu banged his head while Mufasa was flung from a cliff and trampled to such an extent that he DIED.

Mufasa or Scar, no question.

I mean, Mufasa was thrown off a cliff and trampled to death.

And Scar, was eaten alive by hyenas while surrounded by fire.

Both were wounded badly enough to die while no one else was, sooooo..... yeah.

^ Pretty much agree with this, as with the other posts in here. Since Zazu was mostly 'abused' as a slapstick/comedic effect kind of thing, he was never seriously injured. The worst real physical pain he went through was getting bonked in the head before the stampede. Same with the hyenas, T&P, etc. So they're off the list, since they weren't hurt 'seriously', so to speak.

That said, I would have to think Scar. Mufasa could have died from the fall, and in any case he died pretty quickly (he was long gone by the time Simba showed up), whereas Scar not only survived his fall off of a cliff, but was left to burn to death and get mauled by hyenas... which, if you know anything about hyenas/their tactics/their biting ability, would be an absolutely terrible way to go. I'm guessing he suffered quite a bit, before either burning or bleeding to death.

(OFF-TOPIC) Oh, and Julie, your new avi and siggy are fabulous, by the way. :3

You have a point, the trampling probably didn't hurt as badly as hyenas+fire. Although internal wounds can hurt pretty badly.

And thanks, for the sig, I was trying to capture the mood of the song.

Yeah, it's kind of hard to choose between the two, since we're really not sure how long it took for either of them to die or what they ended up dying from. But I think it would definitely have to be one of those two. None of the other characters really got seriously hurt - the worst most of them got was getting knocked unconscious. And Nuka died pretty quickly.

... Well, except maybe the hyenas, if they got burned alive attacking Scar, but then we don't really know what happened to them, so they might not have even died.

No problem. I was referring to the one with Scar and Nala (I now see you have a sig rotator), but I like the Shadowland one as well. You did a good job with both.
