Here's one I just remembered:
I was in Cragscleft, the chapel. I had just grabbed the two gold candlesticks and was running back into the hall. I got to the hall, turned, and started backing away, checking my six before I went down the stairs. I suddenly stopped moving. I turned around, and found that I had backed right into the Hammerite I was trying to avoid! He introduced Garrett's brain to his hammer and everything went black.

Another frogbeast egg story...Damn robots would keep blowing up my frogs with their cannonballs before they could do any damage...so I said what the hell and released four frogs at once, assuming that they would bring the guy down. Well, they just kind of stood there in a line, doing nothing, and the robot shot his cannonball at the first one. This started a chain reaction of frogs, with the last one exploding right in front of me and killing me!
Also in T2, at Sab at Soulforge, that damn servant on the ramp in that one factory area. I had turned out the lights so I felt pretty cocky. I snuck up to blackjack him, but somehow missed; he used a switch behind him to turn on the lights and alarm, leaving me pitifully exposed. Didn't last long

In Soulforge, I had accidentaly alerted every machine to my presence, I was lucky enough to find that area with three pipes with ladders coming from them, I went up them, and started dropping frogs. The frogs scored a few kills, I thought it got all of them. I dropped off the ladder, saw two blue beasts glaring at me, ducked right as they fired, their cannonballs bounced off each other. After laughing myself out of my chair, two of the little bastards shot me.

In Lost City, I had already been beaten up some, and I was leaning around a corner to gas some burricks. Well, I fucked up, hit the wall in front of me, and collapsed.

Once, I tried to stack some mines for climbing purposes. It was in RTC, I think, but it could have happened in every mission...

I was playing Eavesdropping for the first time. I got to the door in record time, and I was standing there with my ear pressed against the door -- when I heard Karras say: "...a demonstration...a worthless piece of guttersnipe, standing behind the door...". I screamed and ran -- I thought Karras was talking about me

I was playing The Lost City. I climbed to the tower, where you must climb out of the window. Well, i did that too fast, falling down the tower. Nothing funny about that, but I found it kind of funny as Garrett was saying "It's a long way down!" in a calm voice during my long fall

I was playing LifeoftheParty, and was down in the concord on level1, I had attracted unwanted attention from the guard and canonMech down there, and was making a frantic dash back to the elevator. I JUST managed to make it in and press the button to go up.... phew! As the elevator was going up the mech and guard just stood around looking for me, so I started jumping on the elevator just to pissem off, and threw a couple of apples at em (grabbed some in the kitched). Was having a good little laugh leaning over the edge watching them run around in confusion, when BHAM!! Got clipped by the wall as the elevator moved upto the next floor.... :P

T2, in kidnapped, I had taken out everyone around site 7 and had all the bodies in a big pile, saved my game and died shortly after. When I reloaded I blackjacked one of the patroling guards and figured I would add him to the pile, only I reloaded the wrong saved game and walked into a fully awake and alert site 7 with a mechanist over my shoulder.
T1, in the bonehoard, the lone burric in the cavern, I went down the slope and put a fire arrow down his throat, except I heard a splash. seems I hit 4 and nailed him with a water arrow instead. as I fall to the ground gasping for air my wife asks "what were trying to do, give him a bath?"

Lytha, I've done the same thing with mines. I was trying to get up somewhere and had already made a stack of all the food, potions, and other droppable items I had, and I came to the mines. An instant before Garrett felt the icy grip of death a thought popped into my head:
Hey, wait. Mines explode. That was a bad idea!
