Nope. Imagine it's bass drum beats. That's how it went in the music from the original Terminator movie. Jaws would be:
DUNDUNDUNDUNDUNDUNDUNDUN-DOON-DUNDUNDUN-DOON-DUNDUNDUN...

Charlton Heston in The Omega Man.
The last man on Earth.
He kills hordes of albinos by night, and spends his leisure time driving sports cars through abandoned streets and making wisecracks to himself.
He also plays chess with Julius Caeser, and decides the best clothes for fighting are a blue jumpsuit with military cap.
he survived a helicopter crash/explosion, completed a badass motercycle jump outside of a football stadium, and died in a super cool christ pose.
The albinos in this film tried to make up for this disparity in coolness by wearing black designer sunglasses, but this is just embarrassing.

A few that come to mind:
Riddick (Pitch Black/Chronicles of Riddick)- Badass serial killer with mad killing skills and plenty of attitude.
Jason Bourne (The Bourne Identity and sequels) Skilled super spy.
Alucard (Hellsing)-Aka Dracula, Vlad the Impaler. Favorite Hobby: Seek and Destroy inferior vampire rubish for a bit of fun.
Revy (Black Lagoon) First class criminal/pirate and expert gunman with a hot temper who swears like a sailor. Interests include, money, guns, booze, blowing things up, and shooting people.
Major Motoko Kusanagi (Ghost in the Shell) Badass and skilled millitary commander in a combat cyborg body.
Karula Uwatsurei (Utawarerumono) Former imperial princess turned slave and gladiator. Insanely strong, loves a good battle, wields a massive bludgeoning weapon able to take out multiple enemies at once.

Dexter Morgan.

I cannot believe I'm the First one to mention this one:

A good test of how badass a guy might be is to imagine him fighting someone else on the list. Like how long would they last against Wolverine or Conan the Cimmerian?
It's actually five beats at dun.
I do think the list needs to be narrowed somewhat... if robots and super-powers are allowed, that means this will eventually come down to Superman VS Wolverine VS the T-1000 or some such.
For the sake of the thread, I would say things should be limited to characters who are human or approximately human. I.E. Conan is in, the Terminator is out.

another vote for Riddick!
If you're talking about Terminator, not in the original movie. It became five beats in T2.
If you mean Jaws...well then i'm totally lost.
And you actually have Jaws' theme right, although isn't there a "clash" sound right after the first "DOON"?

There might be, but there's only so much orchestration you can portray just using the word "dun".
No one has mentioned Han Solo yet or Mr. Worf.
I am afraid you are mistaken the opening duns include 5 beats. I'm playing it right now actually. The ending seems to have four though so that may be what you meant.
But we should end the hijack of the thread.
My vote is now for Darth Vader.
No, the ending has six beats. So does the background. Ever'body listen closely!
It's not a huge hijack, and we get to hear music!
Or we could, if the damn link worked!

no-one's actually said Wolverine yet. so: Wolverine.
Snake Eyes from GI Joe. c'mon the guy's a freaking ninja master who also uses hand-guns and grenades. that's fucking badass. and he does kill.
I second Jason Bourne. dude beats people up with magazines and towels FFS!
Optimus Prime. "GIVE ME YOUR FACE!"
Ultimate Nick Fury. he's fuckin Captain America's boss!
Ultimate Hawkeye. kills people with his fingernails FFS!
