I love physics

I was playing Skyrim yesterday, exploring the ruins of Folgunthur (I think that's what it's name was). I was there to

Spoiler
and I came across a puzzle, that focused mostly of two revolving doors (they spin like a wheel with a door-shaped hole on one side) on the sides of two thrones with Draugr seated on them, and levers beside those thrones.

After killing the Draugr there, I noticed that the left revolving door was already open, and there was another Draugr that came out and attacked me in the previous confusion, and now lay dead on the doorstep. I saw three of those revolving pillars with the whale, eagle and snake on them, and noticed that I didn't know the answer. So I proceeded out of the room and opened the revolving door on the right.

Of course, when I did this, the other door that was open before closed, with the dead Draugr caught inside the door. Basically, it looked like a pair of legs going ape [censored], caught inside the slab. I just laughed for about five minutes, watching the legs flail about, making ridiculous whacking sounds when it hit a nearby wall (which was very often).

Remembering that Skyrim experience made me think of making a thread about it, so I did. Tell me a funny experience you had with Skyrim's physics, that really just wouldn't make sense in real life.

Funny experience? Okay, well, I was being followed by a courier once from Whiterun to Solitude. He wasn't wearing any clothes either... :blink:

Well...

I was looking for Windshear.

It had fallen off the boat.

So... I had wanted to see if swords float.

So I dropped a specially enchanted, stalhirm sword I made into the water, and I lost it.

I found Windshear floating on water.

-.-

****ing swords...

There was a draugr who had gotten its hand stuck in an iron door. There was conveniently also a switch to open and close the iron door (it went up and down, the kind of iron cage door thing).

So i totally spammed the switch watching the draugr body go up and down :D
