We’re involved in a debate at work over how many ‘people’ have been killed in cold blood by Arnold Schwartzeneggar, in his movies.  
I remember Commando where he got shut of about 500 in 90 minutes, so it must be a lot. Does anyone care enough to help?

**dantheman** I don; tthink those figures are for peope ‘killed in cold blood’ as the OP asks. In kindergarten cop for example the shot was fired in defence. I suspect most of the others were also just total counts.

I guess so, which would make the “in cold blood” count even lower than those above numbers.

I think that’s what that site showed. I googled “schwarzenegger +body count”

There was a TIME magazine article, but you need to buy it to read it. I didn’t.
