Dead
shareSo, being punched in the face can kill you?
Now you agree with me!
He got hung by his noose after the punch out.

Well, yeah. Butch was a professional boxer and got a clean shot in on the gimp. Yes, a punch to the face can kill.
Especially if you're knocked out and left hanging by a noose around your neck.
Seize the moment, 'cause tomorrow you might be dead. share
Especially if you're knocked out and left hanging by a noose around your neck.Good observation. This is what the script describes. He involuntarily hung himself. Unconscious, his own weight strangled him via the noose around his neck.

Hanged, not hung.

I think you're confusing this with Last Boy Scout, another Bruce Willis movie ;)

He died
shareUp to the point Butch leaves I think he was alive. Butch can kill with a punch, but he only hit him once in a knock out manner. When Butch goes past him later it appears he's hanging from his suit and not his neck. Maybe the intention was he strangled himself, and suspension of logic. I like to think Marcellus killed him quick when his crew arrived, no witnesses, assuming he was alive. Regardless, the gimp alive or dead might raise some uncomfortable questions if he don't put him back in his box and keep him quiet.
shareI never thought the Gimp was dead, just knocked out. And BTW guys, he did not have a noose around his neck. As to what happens to him afterwards, we don't know of course.
