His beard hair got burned off by the magma. He made the ultimate sacrifice of his beard so that he could save his son.

You see, here's how I think this works:
Overseer: Welcome to the military! You need to wear socks! Dorf: Oh, I should get military socks. My socks are civilian socks. Dorf discards socks Dorf: You know, I need a whole lot of gear now. I should get socks... last. Oh, but these steel boots with the white goo on them are nice!

If i remember correctly, he never had  beard. Even when he could grow one, he had the choice, but he chose not to. What a monster.

I'm sure SOME of they HAD to have a beard.
Also it's pretty much the same thing that happens when a vile force of darkness encounters a legendary ten Dorf strong military.

Some of the Hussars also used to up the "wow factor" by stuffing severed heads down the tips of their weapons and charging into battle with a lance-full of heads, which sounds pretty gnarly.

You know I only got 1 hour of sleep today because of that, right? It's worse than TVTropes. I read. Every. F**king. Single. Article. On. That. Site. Well played. That said, for my contribution, I vote Gandalf! Fell to the centre of the planet while fighting a 15-foot tall demon, fights his way back up to the top of the tallest mountain to freeze the thing to death, DIES, and then decides: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gvdf5n-zI14 and comes back to life like THAT. *fingersnap*

The Time Traveler in The Time Machine and Dr. Frankenstein in Frankenstein both have the dedication to their science any dwarf would envy! The latter chickens out in the end, though, and pays for it.

(Note: I am talking about the books.)

Oscar, from the movie: Riki-Oh, the Story of Ricky.

He removes his own guts, and tries to strangle someone with them.

Dorfs would totally do that, if they could.

Does Tyrion count? Bit of a spoiler to explain exactly WHY he's worthy of True Dorfiness, but he does some amazingly badass stuff.

Edit: For reference, that dwarf fellow from A Song of Ice and Fire

I can't believe this isn't here already: Gotrek from Gotrek and Felix. The most badass dorf I've seen outside of DF.

Garfield is a dorf. He's lazy, fat, hairy, and has a sometimes-rocky relationship with the humans.

These guys are short, have 360-degree beard coverage, and will rush into combat to acquire a sock.  They count.

Listen up: making a thing a ‼thing‼ doesn't make it more awesome or extreme.  It simply indicates the thing is on fire.  Get it right or look like a silly poser.

It's useful to keep a ‼torch‼ handy.
