Gandalf, after a long battle. When the Balrog pulled him under, they fell an immeasurable distance, and according to the movies, plunged into water. All the books say is Gandalf followed the Balrog out of the depths of the deep by the Endless Staircase (forgotten by the dwarves). And at the top of the staircase, at the tower, he threw down his enemy at last.

The book also defines the balrog as a human-shaped shadow, not a flaming monster with wings and horns.

but we have to agree that the flaming monster with wings and horns and a fire whip is awesome.

True, because they originally were shapeless but could take whatever form pleased them, but lost that form when they followed Morgoth (Maiar).
