How could I forget? Plenty of people have seen the flying mammoth near Whiterun, but when I came across it it started as a two-headed mammoth, of which one half shot 100' up in the air, before coming down and landing on the other's back. First playthrough, early days, and a glitch like that actually gave me a nice feeling of nostalgia.

I like the small pond outside Whiterun with a skeleton arm holding a sword sticking out of it. Excalibur, is that you??

I was running around on foot when I saw the headless horseman from a distance running toward me. Turns out, the headless horseman wasn't on his ghostly horse, so the horse was running by itself being chased by a spider, bear and wolf.

Said I could "steal horse" and attempted many times, but couldnt unfortunately.

I've also seen the random "noble" riding a ghost horse instead of a regular one lol.

I've never ever seen anyone ever mention the mammoth stuck in a glacier. I forget where exactly it is. But I know there is also a Dwemer ruin that has also been swallowed by the glacier. The mammoth has arrows and axes stuck in it. And if you climb on top of it there are all kinds of bones is it.

its north of Aftland

I once got attacked by a skeleton dragon.
This.
I was fighting a standard blood dragon yesterday, when he became skeletal in mid air, and I absorbed his soul, but the thing was still fighting, and only I could kill it, with my weapons, magic didn't affect it, Storm, or Frost atronachs didn't affect it, was awesome, but by far the weirdest thing in the game.

Just east of Anise's cabin I've run into everything from a necromancer fighting a flame atronach to a breton in dwarven armor shooting fireballs at me to a body spinning and falling down that had a treasure hunter note on them. That spot just spawns weird stuff.

I once come across bandits fighting a giant. It was like Kerbal Space Program. A Dragon attacking Civil War camps were weird because they killed each other off and I didn't have to do anything to take over. Thanks to radiant questing I also found some necromancers who were after me tangling with some bandits looking for pit wolves for an arena fight that were both being attacked by Thalmor Justicars. There's also those skeletons you find all over the place trying to touch shrines or grab potions.

This is a super long story that is pointless and nobody will care but I had already typed it without realising so here we go...

I had the most random string of events yesterday. Not super interesting but still interesting. Anyway, I don't fast travel and I was at Dawnstar. I always run from Dawnstar to Solitude to use the carriage to go to another town. I never ride my horse so I thought I might give it a go. I jumped on the horse and started heading West towards Solitude. At first a Dragon swooped past me and I ignored it and then it ignored me. I then saw a bounty hunter attack me for not giving him money. I accidentally jumped off my horse and he started to move away. I chased my horse while that bounty hunter attacked me. I play on Master and at the time I was naked as I had no gear as I was making Alchemy potions with all my ingredients that had been storing since I started. I was almost encumbered so that's why I had to leave all my gear back in Riften. Anyway I was almost dead and managed to just get onto my horse and run as he slashed me once more. My health was very low and one hit would kill me. I kept running West and I ran past a Vigilant of Stendarr attacking this almost dead bandit. I ignored him and continued and then I came across a random Fire Atronach which threw a fireball at a rabbit then directed one at me. I was still on low health and I was lucky and it went passed me. I kept going to which I saw a Frost Mage nd Fire Mage fighting. The Frost Mage shot an Ice Spike hitting my horse making me slow. It hit a couple more as I was trying to get away. I managed to get far enough but the Ice Spikes kept coming to which an Ice Wraith was attacking me (I think it was) and I just ignored and ran. I ended up running past a Mammoth getting attacked by two Saber Cats which reminded me of the Ice Age. I continued heading to Solitude. I got near that big arc and I accidentally ran into some Horkers thinking they were rocks and then the same thing with Mudcrabs just a few metres ahead. They were harmless. I kept running until I got to the carriage. I talked to the guy then he cut out and a Guard told me I had a bounty. I was too cheap to pay and so he started attacking me. I had nothing except for a quest item dagger I stole in Riften. It did 12 damage and on Master I did no damage to him. Luckily my horse took his attention while I slashed him forever. I had a few budget poison potions I had made from practicing alchemy so I used them on him. Eventually I killed him and took the Carriage back to Riften. I stored my potions in a draw for selling later, went to the Guild and sold some items, and then thought I would get the trophy for the bounty in all 9 holds. I attacked a few guards killing them and then I got my first 1HKO death my a Two-Handed female guard.

After this huge awesome adventure I had recently turned auto-saving off as my loading time was decreased majorly. I hadn't saved since I took the carriage to Dawnstar in the first place. So I had to re-do this crazy adventure again. And the funny thing was all these random events happening near each other happened again. I learnt my lesson. Always remember to save, even if you forget. I might put auto-save back of for a backup even though it takes longer to load. I haven't decided though.

Stepping out of the gates of Whiterun and having the skeleton of the first dragon fall out of the sky and land on top of me. The gate-guard asking me 'What is it? Dragons?' just added sprinkles.

I love how even necromancers read (the yellow book of riddles) while stinking up the place.

Glow in the dark giants?!? :huh: I was making the run between Whiterun and Solitude and ran past a pair of giants that were also out for a stroll and noticed that their tattoos were glowing a faint redish hue :eek:. I took note of my surroundings and noticed that both moons where in their full phase and were high in the sky, when I looked back at the giants they had stopped glowing but after a couple of steeps they resumed glowing in the dark.Once again I looked to the sky and a cloud had passed in-front of the moons which I assumed blocked the moon light and caused the glowing to stop, only to resume when the moons where back out :shrug:

How about a dungeon closet full of shoes. Has Imelda Marcos made it into the game?

I once came to my house in Riften to see what I have stored in there and searched this drawer downstairs. 1st item I saw was called "Draugr" and had no view or nothing for it and when I mess around with it, the game crashed on me.

Wtf? >.>
