Slaying of Kirmira by Bhima

Kirmira is a demon who appears in Mahabharata . He is the brother of Bakasura and a good friend of Hidimba . Both  Bakasura and Hidimba were killed by Bhima .

Kirmira came to know of the death of his brother and friend and he developed wrath against Bhima after knowing that he is the killer of both .

Pandavas in exile stayed in a forest which was already inhabited by Kirmira . After knowing the identities of Pandavas , he targeted Bhima and started throwing big trees and stones on him .

Both started grappling each other showing their prowess . Fierce battle happened . Bhima caught Kirmira by his waist and started whirling him around .

Kirmira soon became exhausted and fainted . At that time , Bhima killed him by tearing his chest .
