    No Caption Provided

    Dragon Ball Ep 16 - 12:22 - Master Roshi throws a specific stone into the middle of the jungle and tasks Krillin and Goku with finding it in under half an hour. Clearly an impossible task, but whereas Goku has his freakish strength, speed, and enhanced senses to give him a leg up, Krillin is the one who eventually wins by being intelligent and sneaky. He first thinks to make a replica of the stone, realizing that looking for the real one would just be a waste of time, but Roshi manages to see through the ruse. Then once Goku locates the stone, Krillin tricks him into handing it over without having to do any work himself. Goku gives chase and is much faster than Krillin, however Krillin still keeps the advantage by destroying a rope bridge as Goku passes over it, dumping him into the ravine below. Unfortunately not even that is enough to get rid of Goku, he comes back and beats Krillin up, but even with a bruised body and the saiyan's boot hovering over his face, Krillin still thinks of a way to get rid of Goku by throwing the fake stone he had made earlier, thus winning the game.

    Willpower/Endurance

    Dragon Ball Ep 19 - 2:30 - As part of Master Roshi's training, every day for eight months straight Krillin would wake up at 4:00 in the morning to deliver milk to every single resident of the entire island across treacherous terrain (a task usually requiring a helicopter to do) and would plow entire crop fields with his bare hands, both before breakfast, then was expected to study literature and math for hours at a time and gain acceptable grades, afterwards going on to perform heavy construction work without power tools, do laps in shark infested water, and dodge angry bees while tied to a tree, all while wearing a 50 pound turtle shell that he was never allowed to take off. Krillin was much, much weaker than Goku at this time, yet he never gave up on his training and was able to keep up with the saiyan through sheer determination.
