Who goes to hell - as far as those pious Bible Christians are concerned?
I suspect: EVERYBODY - except those maga-super-over-ÜBER-pious Bible Christians. Am I right?  RE: Who goes to hell - as far as those pious Bible Christians are concerned?

Many think there is a special group of 144,000 who will be allowed into heaven. I don't know all the details and wonder if that number covers all time...if when number 144,001 shows up then number 1 drops off to keep the number correct.
Others don't seem to have a limit to the number of people allowed and no matter how awful in life a person is admitted through the pearly gates if they say some magic words right at the last second. It's all just so much BS no matter what story you go with.

The way I heard it was that the special ones were immortal and thus only around in the 'end times'.
This belief is most prevalent amongst evangelical xtians who all seem to believe they are one of these immortals and are predestined to sit in judgment over the rest of us. Whilst they are very enthusiastic in their judging I remain to be convinced of their suitability for the role.

Alot fewer people than deserve to, would probably be a better answer. It is god's grace, after all.
I think it's fascinating that one of the more well intentioned christian beliefs, the equality of man as fellow sinner, is inextricably bound to an explicitly intolerant fundamental premise. -then there's the red letter answer..easily my favorite. A loooooot of people are going to hell. Most of them evangelical christians. While they endlessly wring their hands over abortion and homosexers.... they get their stance on poverty, global warming, racial discrimination, the role of the military, capital punishment, foreign aid, and public education entirely wrong.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

I've been told that I will, more than once.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

Who gets into heaven? Murderers, rapists, thieves, arsonists, pyramid schemers, virulent racists, paedophiles, recreational cannibals, genocides, and people who abandon kittens. Once you ask forgiveness for these and myriad other egregious sins, you’re golden.
One the other hand, you can spend your life being kind, warm-hearted and charitable. One day, though, you hit your thumb with a hammer and shout ‘JESUS FUCKING CHRIST!!’ And go straight to Hell. Boru

Depends on what you mean by "pious Bible Christians", but if we're going with the typical Evangelical fundamentalist Christian, the very simplistic answer is every person (adult?) who has not put their faith in Jesus as Lord and Saviour. This is because sin is what condemns everyone to hell from the start, and you need Jesus to save you from that.
