On-screen kills by Jack Bauer


 * ''"He said you were a born killer. Is that true?"


 * &mdash; Jonathan Wallace, "Day 2: 12:00am-1:00am"

This is a list of kills made by Jack Bauer that were shown on-screen.

There are a few requirements for a death to be a confirmed kill:
 * 1) Jack must be the one who causes the death.
 * 2) The death must be confirmed with video evidence.
 * 3) Jack must cause death, not just serious injury.
 * 4) The death must have occurred on the TV show; kills from novels, comics and games are not included.

There are 266 kills total. In a few cases, death is not intended; however, unintended and unwanted kills are also included for sake of completeness.
