About this deal

Released to Elsewhere: Hans tells the authorities that if their demands are met, they will go to the roof with their thirty-odd hostages, get in provided helicopters, travel to an airport, and each party will go their merry way. In actuality, his crew has rigged the roof to blow, killing all the hostages (and hopefully the Feds), faking their own deaths, and throwing the authorities off long enough to enact their real escape plan, via fake ambulance. McClane himself is made more sympathetic. He's not misogynistic the way Leland is in the book, and McClane mostly kills only in self-defense, while Leland executes captured terrorists simply because he thinks they are about to try and lecture him on the righteousness of their cause. Karl's brother being killed is a deliberate choice by Leland in the book, while in the film it's more accidental due to him trying to overpower McClane. More importantly, McClane's actions save everyone on the roof, so it's clear McClane's involvement is a good thing and unambiguously heroic. In the book, it's never entirely clear if Leland's actions didn't end up making things worse. Car Fu: Argyle, the limousine driver, is oblivious to the hostage situation for half of the movie and useless for most of the rest, but in the last 15 minutes or so, he slams his limo into the getaway vehicle, trapping it against the wall of the garage and preventing Theo from escaping. Blatant Lies: "I promise I won't hurt you," as Tony is stalking McClane with a submachine gun. A moment later he opens fire on where he thinks John is hiding. When the terrorists initially take over the building, McClane instantly realizes he is hopelessly outnumbered. His first goal is to escape from them without being detected. His next objective is to call the police for help.

Fake Shemp: For Fritz's death scene, Hans Buhringer wasn't called in that day of filming, as the filmmakers were already behind schedule, so they opted for 6'4 Native American stuntman Henry Kingi to double for him while wearing a wig. Buhringer joked that he never really died in the film as he wasn't an experienced actor at the time. Adaptation Expansion: The book tells the story entirely from the perspective of Leland ( The Hero equivalent to McClane in the film). As such, no scenes outside the building are ever seen. Al Powell (who is in the book) dealing with a Jerkass deputy chief, the two identically named FBI agents, Argyle's involvement in stopping the terrorists and the Jerkass reporter, are all additions for the film. If these events occurred in the book, Leland and, by extension, the reader are never privy to them. And again when he hears Ellis smarmily tell Hans to put down his gun over the two-way, and realizes what's about to happen to him.

Gruber establishes the Magnificent Bastard, Smug Snake type of criminal he is when he's directing his goons to prep before taking the Nakatomi Christmas Party hostage. And then, after they burst in and spray the place with bullets, he gently chides the screaming, terrified, hostages to please, please be quiet and allow him to speak. Dwayne T. Robinson, at least initially. By the time the FBI show up, he seems to be starting to believe Powell about McClane, and even banters with him about the FBI's stupidity. He does begin to chew John out for his actions at the end of the film, but is interrupted by Karl. Also Gruber's attempt to pass off as one of the hostages when John sneaks up on him in the boiler room.There is an odd Running Gag of John finding his eyes wandering to various attractive women, from smiling at a pretty stewardess on the plane to a lightly dressed woman jumping her boyfriend in the lobby and much later a poster of a topless woman in the maintenance hallways. At the least, the poster serves a purpose as John gets turned around in the chaos and used that poster to regain his bearings. An especially odd one comes after the initial takeover and John slips away into the offices still under construction, there is a brief shot where he looks across the street to see a woman undressing.
