BAD. ASS.
John McClane is just as stealthy as Batman, given his situation. Granted, he couldn't afford to spend years learning the ancient art of ninjitsu in a foreign land honing his body to become a human weapon, but for a man in the middle of a divorce who is caught in the crossfires of a German gang's plot to rob the Nakatomi plaza with only a handgun and WITHOUT HIS SHOES, I'd say he manages pretty well.
