While it may seem that Mother Gothel is the eighth animated Disney villain to fall to her death - following the Wicked Queen (Biancaneve e i sette nani (1937)), Ratigan (Basil l'investigatopo (1986)), McLeach (Bianca e Bernie nella terra dei canguri (1990)), Gaston (La bella e la bestia (1991)), Frollo (Il gobbo di Notre Dame (1996)), Queen Narissa (Come d'incanto (2007)), and Charles Muntz (Up (2009)) - she does not in fact die in this manner. She is, however, the only Disney villain to die from extreme and rapid old age - brought on by the sudden loss of the magic effect on her of Rapunzel's blonde hair. She only happened to be falling out of a 70-foot window at the time; once her cloak hits the ground, she has already turned to dust. This is probably why this is the only time we see a Disney villain falling "to their death" where we actually witness the impact--an intact body hitting the ground would not have been considered family-friendly.
