With shouts of surprise, the dwarves clamoured to keep hold as the entire bridge that they were standing on plummetted far below, they all landed in a pile at the bottom, with the planks of wood all on top of them. Groaning loudly, they tried to get up and brush off the debris.
"Well, that could have been worse." declared Bofur matter-of-factly and trying to make something cheerful of the matter. At least they were free of the goblins now.

However, no sooner had the dwarf said it, than the goblin king's corpse collapsed directly on top of them.
"Oh, you have [i]got[/i] to be [i][b]joking[/b][/i]!!!" Dwalin hollered angrily as the dwarves squirmed out from underneath the body. 

It was then that Kili looked back behind them as he heard the scurrying of thousands of feet heading towards them, and saw a mass of snarling, hissing goblins heading directly for them.
"Um...Gandalf...!!" he yelled to the wizard.
