The most stupid way you've been killed?

Post » Thu Dec 15, 2011 8:33 am

I fast traveled goths magic college while on my horse. Tried to turn around. Fell over the edge of the bridge. Landed on a cliff but my horse died but at least took all the damage from the fall. Or so I thought. Until i realized there was no way off that little ledge

Fast travel if no enemies are around...

Twice now, I've gone to jail for crimes I've committed in a town. When I go to sleep my sentence off, it says I can't sleep with enemies nearby. A guard then opens the cell, and proceeds to beat my unarmed, naked character with his sword.

Screwing up my perks and starting over, that's the worse. As for unexpected it would just have to be some random jump that was too high.

I fell into some sort of trap which was really just a small pool of water. Eventually I found a lever that would get me out of there by moving some sort of iron door upwards from the water to push me up. However, instead of being pushed up by it, I managed to get trapped underneath it with apparently no way to get out again, so I drowned. Imagine quicksaving at that point.

Goat pushed me off the throat of the world climb because I was only 1/2 paying attention while running.

I let a bandit do the whole "please dont kill me" stagger thing. I turn around to loot a couple of chests waiting for in eventual "haha I kill you now", I wasnt expecting to get one-shotted with a death animation to boot :/

Brought a dragon down to 20% health..... watched as it starting flailing about in the air. Lost sight of it for the whole of 1 second. Falls to the ground behind me, I turn around just as it's body is rushing towards me - Cue insane ragdoll physics.

Sprinting off a cliff in the Skyhaven Temple. Same goes for Markarth.

I really should've been paying attention to where I was going.

A dragon landed on top of the College of Winterhold, I went up the tower to fight him, but as soon as I opened the door he did the killing blow where he eats you (I was on full health)

Ok, this one was humiliating, I've become quite good at spotting traps, especially wire traps, in these cases I would waste an iron arrow on the trap to trigger it standing well back, silly me, wrong side of trap and boulders come tumbling down, my character survives with low health, should have stayed still until full health again, but moved on and brushed against one of the boulders, dead!, why the heck are these boulders still dealing damage once they've stopped!
