I have two.
First was when I was in Whiterun around level 10 or so, hanging around Warmaiden's to advance my smithing. I needed to use the Grindstone, but Adrianne Avenicci was using it. I clicked on it, got her to move out of the way, and get to work. While I'm improving a blade I hear a female scream close by. I shrug it off as a glitch and finish upgrading my weapons. Get up, look around... Adrianne Avenicci is gone. Then a minute later I notice her dead in the little stream next to her shop. I guess she fell? It was eerie and random as hell. I got over it and posed her body in funny ways later though.
A while later i get a courier letter informing I was in her will, and get 100 gold. Her husband and father's scripts changed to accomodate her death. I suspect my forcing her from the grindstone caused her to stand someplace she couldn't, so she slipped and fell. Oops. BTW her husband started coming into work later and later after this, like he was just slacking off.
Second one was, I had Azura's Star empty, and wanted to fill it with a Grand Soul. So I come across two Mammoths and a Giant. My previous experience fighting same taught me not to confront them head on, so I got onto a pile of rocks where they couldn't reach me, and pelted them with arrows. Of course Lydia, being the dumb psycho that she is, ran right up to the mammoths and giant to fight them. Then the giant knocked her into the stratosphere. Oops! Forgot they did that. I was dreading searching for her corpse later when the sun came out(hey, I gave her some nice stuff!) when after ten minutes or so, and after I'd knocked off the giant and mammoths, she comes running up. I guess nothing kills her, except me when she stupidly gets in my way in a fight. But I just crack up at the idea of her flying into space, landing half a continent away, then running back after she recovers a bit of health.
