The luckiest guy in TOS - Page 3

Though I hope I'm not being off-topic trying to get back on-topic, I'd say Lt. Garrovick in "Obsession"

He's a redshirt
Four other redshirt characters die (i.e. including Lt. Leslie's twin brother)
He survives several encounters with the vampire cloud (thanks to Spock's and Kirk's assistance)

My other candidate would be Scotty in "The Changeling"

He get's killed
But he is resurrected

^^ Excellent redshirt candidates for "luckiest guy in TOS!"

Killed and brought back to life, no big deal. Just ask Spock, and McCoy.

But they did not bear the onus of wearing red shirts, a known "target on one's back" in the TOS universe.

The question was about the luckiest guy in TOS (not Star Trek in general).
Right now I neither do remember an established death of Spock or McCoy in TOS.

Not sure about Spock but didn't McCoy "die" in Shore Leave?

Nevermind...I see what you mean by "established"...its been a long day today and still at least 3 hours to go before I'm done LOL

Scotty died in The Changeling, but got better.

I was counting Spock's death in TWOK as he is an original series character even though said demise did not occur during the series run.

"She turned you into a newt?" Hmm, sounds like a scene in "Charlie X."
