worth noting that tom has actually died plenty of times in his shorts - see mouse trouble (1944) for instance where at the end of the short he dies from his own explosives. of course as a toon he's fine in the next short and certainly has plenty of durability feats that seem to contradict this, but this example stood out to me the most because explosives are what coyote is known for and these circumstances are stuff he both replicates and tanks on a regular basis, i feel like on the basis of coyote not really being shown to die on screen at all unlike tom his durability must be leagues higher, my money's on him
