Funniest stuff that happened to me was totally my fault. I was sneaking an Aelyd ruin supposetively filled with bandits. I descended a volley of rotating stairs. Then on the small flat just before the next set of stairs down I noticed a trap plate activator, looked up and discovered 3 huge spiked iron balls setted on the ceiling. Easy enough I thought. I circled the trap then proceeded down. Downthere there was a room, and about 10 feet from the entrance I started hearing some miscreant voices. I stated for using my usual technique witch consist in sneaking to a dark corner, longest range possible from the opposition, and start shooting at the unaware victim. Since the NPC,s seldom never talk to themselves, I knew there was at least two bandits. They did called reinforcement tho. By the time I killed the first bandit, the two others were at midway in the room heading toward my "sniping position". It was time to backup my way into the starway. Nothing so far is unusual. So moving backwards and shooting arrows from the stairs is not uncommon. The problem is they were slightly thougher then I expected and I was not very encline to engage two violent bandits that have a huge taste for vengeance. I did forgot about one thing... the bandits were keeping climbing closer, threathening me, when I got the second one. But the remaining khajit was looking sort of eager to smash is war hammer right into my cutie little elf head, wich is not the best case scenario with barely no armor, and with a bow in my hands. Then while moving backward and continuously shooting arrows in front of me, aiming was now irrelevant I started considering running out of there as the best plan B available on hand. But I could not accomplish this survival move. Someting made me stopped dead in my track. As I was retreating agressively, I sprang the %??%$?%%$ trap I had forgot upstairs... so after three huge "bonks!" in my back head I found myself burried in war hammer poundering slams... that ended my carreer rather abrutly. I did laughed at myself for quite some time... Whenever I think about that particulary stupid trap omission, I smaile at myslef and on thought comes to mind... Don't ever do that again. ;D
