Saddest Moments In Walt Disney Animated Classics

Disney Movies all have their sad moments. But which one is the very saddest?
The Top Ten
1 Mufasa's Death - The Lion King

Scar...heart of stone -- great character!

I cry every time! Poor Simba...

Long live the king!

This was so sad

2 Anna Loses Her Memory - Frozen
3 Jessie's Flashback - Toy Story 2
4 Bambi's Mom's Death - Bambi

I was just a young boy when my mother took me to see Bambi (she took me to see all of the early Disney movies, starting with Snow White) Maybe because I was a young boy, but to me this was the saddest of them all!

Not as sad a Mufasa I agree, but come on? A little boy just lost his mother?! Surely that's sadder then just a side character dying?!

5 John Smith Gets Shot and Leaves - Pocahontas
6 Kenai Tells Koda That He Killed His Mum - Brother Bear

In Disney, PURE Disney, only Dumbo and a handful of others are truly original by Disney. The Lion King is actually similar to Hamlet, in a way.

Never gets enough credit, beautiful film and possibly the best

7 Hiro Crying - Big Hero 6
8 Baby Mine - Dumbo

I'm creeped out by the title of this... And ps, CLASSICS
THE PRINCESS AND THE FROG IS NOT A CLASSIC

So sad. I cry whenever I see this part. I wish I had a mother that loved me as much.

9 Hiro Tries to Kill Professor Callaghan - Big Hero 6
10 The Poem About Losing Someone - The Fox and the Hound

The only part on any movie I ALWAYS CRY No exception is when the old lady leaves Tod in the forest on his own. I have cried many times the last images of toy story, but never as much as this one... It's just more injustice to a fox who has lost everything. Now, he must lose the woman he was raised by... Perhaps the only person he loved in his world.

Yeah, this is sad as damn.

The Contenders
11 Ray's Death - The Princess and the Frog
12 Tears Of Joy - Inside Out
13 The King and Queen Die - Frozen
14 Todd's Moms Death - The Fox and the Hound

One of the darker Disney animated classics. I love it though.

15 Snow White In Her Coffin - Snow White and the Seven Dwarves
16 You'll Be In My Heart - Tarzan
17 Very Good Advice - Alice in Wonderland
18 Stitch Leaving Lilo - Lilo and Stitch
19 Quasimodo Is Tortured - The Hunchback of Notre Dame
20 Riley's Memories - Inside Out
21 Bing Bong's Death - Inside Out

This is my favorite part, because it's beautiful. I never cry at it.

23 Arlo Lets Spot Go - The Good Dinosaur
24 Skipper's Past - Planes
