The following information that was collected to test this may contain spoilers for Sean Bean projects. So it is possible that the appearance of Sean Bean’s repeated celluloid mortality is a function of some common cognitive biases rather than him actually ending more times than a Sunday furniture sale. This is also known as the Baader-Meinhof Phenomenon and once you know about it, you’ll start seeing it everywhere. The frequency illusion is where something (it can be an event or just an object) which has recently been brought to a person’s attention suddenly seems to occur or appear with greater frequency than it did before it had been noticed. Is it actually true that Sean Bean always dies? In psychology, confirmation bias describes the tendency for people to better recall information that confirms their existing beliefs than information that would refute them. However, everyone knows what happens when you assume you make a prick of yourself. It might have died.īasically it is a fairly common assumption that if Sean Bean is in something, he will most likely not make it to the end. So much so, that there exists a campaign specifically against the further onscreen killing of Sean Bean. In Sean Bean’s case however, the quote might as well be “appearing in a role in television or film makes a corpse of me, Sean Bean.” Sean Bean is well known for dying in films. Tolkein’s character from some book or other, that has been doing the rounds as an internet meme for quite some time: “War makes corpses of us all.” Of course you all know it, it’s ridiculously famous, after all, one does not simply forget a Faramir quote. There’s a quote from a character in The Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring, and J.R.R. Licensed under Public Domain via Wikimedia Commons. “Sean Bean TIFF 2015” by NASA/Bill Ingalls.
