Jensen Ackles, Jared Padalecki

A lot has changed over the years on Supernatural except one thing — the Winchesters sure do die a lot.

Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean (Jensen Ackles) combined have died a grand total of 117 times during their decade-long mission to carry out the family business of saving people, hunting things. They've been offed by everything from a taco to Hellhounds to run-of-the mill gunshot wounds. But how do they always manage to come back? And how many times has death actually left a lasting impression on either brother? Plus: Which brother has bitten the bullet the most?
