The "Indiana Jones" film franchise has used cliffs in suspenseful sequences many times. One of the most memorable is in 1989's "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade," when Jones and a Nazi officer, SS-Standartenführer Vogel, are involved in a fistfight atop a tank approaching a cliff.
Long story short, Jones gets off in time and Vogel doesn't, and the evil Nazi rides to his death in spectacular fashion. "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade" was a huge hit, which earned $474 million at the worldwide box office, or $884 million in today's dollars.
