In the Dragon Ball series, we see tons of people dying and being revived by
the dragon balls.  
This triggered my curiosity to know which character has the most deaths to
his/her name in the whole Dragon Ball series. Who is it, and how many times
did he/she die?

Which character has the most deaths to his/her name?


Not so surprisingly the answer is
[Krillin](http://dragonball.wikia.com/wiki/Krillin). While this page shows he
died 3 times in total in the short summery and trivia part, but I found him
dying a total of 5 times including everything.
[Goku](http://dragonball.wikia.com/wiki/Goku) seems to have died only twice.

**Krillin died the most number of times.** xD

Here's [the
list](http://dragonball.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_deaths_in_the_Dragon_Ball_series)
(Krillin vs Goku):

**Krillin:**

Tien Shinhan Saga (Dragon Ball)

  * Krillin: Killed by Tambourine. After the Tournament, he is killed by Tambourine, who was out to kill all of the greatest martial artists so that King Piccolo would go unchallenged. 

Saiyan Saga

  * Krillin: Killed by Frieza. Frieza lifted him into the air with his mind and blew him up, inducing Goku's first Super Saiyan transformation. He was later revived with the Namekian Dragon Balls. (Note: This was Krillin's second time dying, as he was killed by Tambourine in Dragon Ball). Ep.95 

Fusion Saga

  * Krillin: Turned into chocolate and eaten by Super Buu. Was later revived with the Namekian Dragon Balls. 

Super 17 Saga

  * Krillin: Killed by Android 17, who was brainwashed by his clone created from the depths of Hell. After Krillin tried to help 17 remember how much he hated Dr. Gero, Android 17 shot a Photon Flash through Krillin's chest. 

In alternate timeline

  * Future Krillin: Killed by the androids.

In second alternate timeline

  * Presumably killed by Goku Black

**Goku:**

Saiyan Saga

  * Goku: Killed by Piccolo, though he sacrificed himself. He held Raditz in place so he could not escape, and Piccolo shot a Special Beam Cannon through both of them. Goku was later revived with the Dragon Balls. Ep.5 

Cell Games Saga

  * Goku: Killed when Cell self destructs, after Goku took him to King Kai's planet. He is revived several years later when Old Kai gives him his life. 

In alternate timeline

  * Future Goku: Died of a heart virus. 

Hit Arc

  * Killed by Hit (Dragon Ball Super episode 71)

Second alternate timeline

  * Killed by Goku Black when he and Zamasu switch bodies.
