So I'm playing on master as a pure conjurer right? I get to the part where you fight the first dragon and I pretty much let my minions do all the work. As the dragon got down to 1 bar of health I conjure a magic sword hoping I can get a kill animation. I wanted to see if I could get that before my atronach killed it so I sprinted as fast as I could to get over to it. Then when I get close enough I hit the right trigger and I get a kill animation. At this point I'm feeling really happy but little did I know the kill animation was for the dragon and he ate me. I was so pissed because I had full health and I thought you needed to have a small amount of health for someone to use a finishing move. ah well it was pretty funny anyway.

Anyone else have something similar to this? Dragons, frost trolls,falling off cliffs etc ect?

I sniped a bandit off a very high bridge, tossing his body into a river far below him. He was the last bandit, and I had looted the others, so I decided to dive in after him.

The water SHOULD have saved me, but there was a small boulder at the bottom of the river, that made me just slightly above the limit for swim when I fell in. I died on impact.

my most embarrassing death anyway was i was in a dungeon and i saw these pretty blue lights flying around making my detected not detected symbol go haywire, so i walk over to them and nothing happens, so i think maybe i can catch one, so i stand in front of one, then all of the sudden, before i realize what was going on, the will-o-wisps all gang up on me and i die. the embarrassing part is i could easily have beaten them but i just stood there confused, wondering what exactly was going on, until they killed me. lol

Died to the very first dragon - in the intro.

Jumping off the bridge that leads to the windhelm mages college, hoping
that the river water I was aiming for was deeper than my height.

It wasn't.

Slipping off a cliff into Solitude, and being sent back to my last save in Whiterun, three quests ago.

Pretty much I was running around in the northern part of skyrim where I started fighting a saber-tooth cat and then all of a sudden a dragon decided to join in and i had to fight both...it didnt last long then.

When killing the dragon at Autumnwatch Tower, I wanted it to be epic so instead of waiting on the ground for him to come to me, I went to the roof of the tower to fight him. Well, the way he lands up there is like he's on the side with his neck whipping around the roof. I was attacking his face and ended up walking onto his back and then he took off into the sky, with me still on him. When he swooped down to breath fire at my companion, it sent me flying half-way across the province and I died from falling.

It was the worst death and the best death at the same time.

My worst death? It would have to be when I found out giants like to play golf with my skull.

LMAO. Seriously? What'd you stand there and get hit by that fire shout?

Ouch. That kinda stuff happens to me all the time on the xbox.

Curse the save system on consoles! I hit the quick save compulsively when I used to game on computers.
But it's a bigger pain to save on a console.

Part of the reason I don't play on master difficulty more than I do.

For me it is kinda funny, when I forgot what shout I had keyed up and whirl wind sprinted myself off the side of a cliff during a battle I was winning

I have a silly story about non death.

I was heading up to talk to one of the graybeards that was meditating in that tall spire thing.

I happened up behind him, and accidentally used my force shout and blasted him off the spire!

The silly part was he took no damage. He just dusted off his robe, and headed back up. I lold.

Went to see if I could interact with a giant, like talk or just get him to say go away, and got curb-stomped, literally stomped, about 50 feet. One shot, full health,heavy armor, 50 effing feet....umm level 11.

Finding a beautiful waterfall temple; water rushing through the canols over the edge to spectacular effect. I make my way to the top after a hard battle with the forsworn that made camp there, walk to the edge of

one canol to see a small wooden plank. I decide to walk to the edge and look over the edge only to hear stomping coming from behind me, I quickly turn around to see what I think was a saber tooth lunge at me,

which scared the crap out of me and caused me to step back over the edge. I swear that beast scared me more than anything else in this game thus far.

Yes, this happen to me as well. I just thought it was some kind of shrine or power I could use. Then once I got close enough they all surrounded me and killed me instantly. After that I came back I killed them pretty easily. They're not hard unless they catch you off guard.

This was on the first dragon of the main quest, which apparently was supposed to be easy. I had like 3/4 health, im out of mana, so i go up to the dragon and start slashing him. Next thing i know, he's got me in his mouth and he's doing the killing animation (that horrible swing left swing right throw you corpse on DA FLOOR)
And at that point i was YOU @"￡$ CHOMP ME IN YOUR MOUTH I SWEAR YOU ARE SO DEAD ONCE I RELOAD

Running backwards firing arrows at a group of bandits, then got killed with a warhammer finisher from a bandit behind My poor little frail breton. Not nice, decided I didn't like that guy very much.

Giants are nasty pieces of work too. Dont try and say hello they think your saying 'mammoth f***er' and send your face into the clouds

I fast travel'd to some mountain as as soon as it was done loading a dragon took a nose dive at me and I flew into the air.....that was that
