Yup, and when I step on them, I fall out of my chair in shock.

On the second floor of the mages central keep in Thief Gold - Mage Towers, there is a large meal hall or something. It features four pillars, two long tables and lots of shadows. No problem. So, there I was, hiding, waiting for the right time to do whatever I was going to try. I lean left, and then I get the "suddenly move very, very, very fast in the direction you are leaning" bug or whatever it is. Usually this only gets you real quickly out in the open, which is deadly enough, but I was even more unlucky:
I hit the table and die from the impact. Complete with crushing sound and agonizing scream.
I laughed so hard I nearly fell off my chair. Imagine the city newspaper headlines: "Master thief simultaneously kills and makes a fool of himself by running head first into table leg."

I bumped into the custom working smelter in the t2 version of return to the cathedral and promptly died, also opened the door from the smelter in same mission, to find a couple of haunts standing outside it which concluded in instant death.
In same mission, forgot that t2 has updated pathfinding, was in the cathedral lockpicking the door to the room with a body in it, on one of those thin beams, hear a strange noise behind me, turn round to find a haunts sword decending, dodged sidewards, fell off beam to my death. (in thief gold/dark the haunts fall off the beams without getting to you)

S.H.A.S. stands for "Sudden Heart Attack Syndrome" which most of us experience every once in awile when playing Thief. Garret just up and dies for no apparent reason. :cheeky:
Thanks! Yes, I had some on the stairs of Bafford´s Manor.

I got crushed by an elevater on two occassions in the Calendra's Legacy missions. Once in the museum since I didn't know it was an elevator. And a second time in the Keeper place since I wasn't paying attention and the lift wasn't on the bottom floor. I'm a klutz when it comes to elevators. :joke:

You should start a support group with SNAFU...

Sometimes in Thief 1, if I lean to the side in doorway and spin around quickly, I take damage and die from colliding with the wall. Don't ask me, something's f***ed up with the physics. But things of this nature are what makes the game great, right?

The Sword. I opened one of those doors that triggers a firebolt to be shot out. It hit a guard. Low health. You can guess the rest.

Truart's basement in Blackmail [SPOILER]pressed the button that said "Do not press", two (large) green spiders popped out of the floor, I hit escape on the keyboard, exited the game, and couldn't go back on for the rest of the evening[/SPOILER]
Oh, and after stealing the [SPOILER]Fire Talisman from the Lost City, I went to jump over some lava and ran straight into a fire elemental,[/SPOILER] which was bad timing more than anything else, but I still died :erg:
