* A villainous example, but you have to hand it to Quayanorl. While he's the primary cause cause of the book's EverybodyDiesEnding, this is due to him pulling off an ''epic'' TakingYouWithMe. He is literally shot to pieces, [[BoomHeadshot including once in the head]], but because he's an [[MadeOfIron Idiran]], and [[{{Determinator}} just really damn stubborn]], he manages to drag his shattered body to the controls of a [[CoolTrain Command System train]] ([[{{Gorn}} described in excruciatingly gory detail]]), and ''just'' survives long enough to [[RammingAlwaysWorks direct it towards the protagonists]].

* Horza's certifiably-insane IndyPloy escape from the ''[[MileLongShip Ends of Invention]]'' -- once he figures out that the Culture's onto him, he literally '''blasts his way out of the ship''', nearly getting everyone onboard the ''Clear Air Turbulence'' killed innumerable times while pulling his crazy aerobatics... And he gets the old ship through the whole thing unscathed, something so ludicrous that even the Minds probably wouldn't have expected it.
