Wait a minute... I thought only Stallone, that other guy, and that chick from Nothern Exposure's characters were the only professional mountain climbers in that movie, and they all lived.

How about "Cop who just became a father"? That one just begs for trouble.

You forgot James Bond. He has done his fair share of mountain climbing. And it seems some 00's were killed in mountain climbing incedents.

Security guys. When the bad guys or a monster shows up, the security guy always gets it first.

Never be a scientist. Even ones that live get killed 2-3 times per sequel. "Hey guys, I found this weird thingy in the ground."

/how many times can Ripley die?
//yeah, more like some big rig driver

I notice that those with boyish good looks who don't have particular importance to the plot but keep getting unusual amounts of screen time are slated for death. Something about giving the hero some sort of motivation.

I also notice that those with homely looks are more likely to get killed be a metal scorpion popping out of the desert sands as the audience needs to know the alien robot means business but the good looking soldiers aren't supposed to get killed.

Everydayiblasphorme: Whatever job Sean Bean's character has ?

My thoughts exactly, as evidenced by this video.

Jason Nesmith: You're not going to die on the planet, Guy.
Guy Fleegman: I'm not? Then what's my last name?
Jason Nesmith: It's, uh, uh- I don't know.
Guy Fleegman: Nobody knows. You know why? Because my character isn't important enough for a last name, because I'm gonna die 5 minutes in.
Gwen DeMarco: Guy, you have a last name.
Guy Fleegman: Do I? Do I? For all you know, I'm "Crewman #6"!

Nazi.

The guy can just be the base barber or cook, trying to make a living in a totalitarian, evil, militaristic society, but pin the little Buddhist symbol for good luck on him and he's going to die a horrible death.

It's worse than being your typical henchman.

/Less likelihood of death by volcano, robot, etc, though.
