Heroes have a knack of flying sideways, especially when attacking a bunch of 10-12 villain's cronies or small time crooks who try to rape the heroine. These bozos will normally stand in a well-organized line, making it very convenient for the hero to bring them all down with one single leap.
All heroes can ride horses and shoot guns. No hero misses, no villain hits. Villain can never, ever shoot correct unless he is shooting at an insignificant character or the hero's father. Even at the end of the film, when the villain fires his final shot, the hero he is trying to kill will be saved at the last moment by a side-hero or the villain's daughter (she silently loves the hero) who will come in the way and take the bullet.
If the hero is shot, even ten times, he is unlikely to die. If the side-hero/foil gets shot intercepting a bullet for the hero, he/she will ALWAYS die. There is an exception only in the case of those who are shot in the arm while intercepting bullets, in which event the interception will just be a patch-up technique whereby the interceptor atones for his sins by getting shot in the arm for the hero.
