A computer scientist has created a fascinating chart of top 25 deadliest actors of all time by on-screen kills.

Drawing on the the database of MovieBodyCounts database, Randal Olson created a mostly complete list that shows that Arnold Schwarzenegger is the deadliest man in movies.

A couple surprises on the list are Charlie Sheen and Michael Clarke Duncan, who has more on-screen kills than Chuck Norris (102).

25 Deadliest ActorsIn an accompanying blog post, Olson notes a couple of interesting facts:

Uma Thurman is deadliest woman with 77 on-screen kills.

150 of Tomisaburo Wakayama's 226 kills came in the film "Lone Wolf and Cub: White Heaven in Hell" (1974). It is considered the highest kill count by any one person in a film.

Olson added that there is one key omission in the database: John Wayne.

"I'm almost certain he'd be ranked in the 'deadliest actors' chart if some film-watching hero were willing to do the counts on his [pre-1960] films," Olson, who is a PhD student in Michigan State University's Computer Science program, told BI. "That said, it may be best to qualify that these counts cover the period of 1960 and onward."

Olson also charted the deadliest films and most violent films of all time based on the kill count data.
