Mammoths for me, too.

Just after the very beginning, when you kill that very first dragon. I had a quest from some lady in one of the stalls that wanted a mammoth tusk. So, I went out looking. OMG! MAMMOTHS! I attacked, and got knocked back to Oblivion. I didn't go back to them until after I was level 30 or something.
 
Went back to my old save yesterday for the first time in a while. Had 2 agendas in mind wanted see how strong my character was and i wanted to get the break out of jail achievement. So i went to whiterun and 30 min later i had been to every house, store, street...etc. and killed everyone who could be killed. finally i gave myself up in dragonsreach, after all who could die had done so. They put me in jail i'm ready to break out and realize i haven't got a single lockpick. i was planning on reloading anyway but i was still pissed i wasted 30 min and still didn't get the achievement i was trying to get.

The Progeny of Vikings
I've accidentally gotten a little too trigger-happy (or should I say axe-happy) when various associates of mine have surprised me by showing up unexpectedly. I recently killed my follower, Gorbash Iron-Hand, that way in Blackreach. As its name implies, the place is quite dimly lit except for the eerie glow. I had lost Gorbash somewhere and thought he would stay lost. Then the poor bastard pops up unexpectedly out of the shadows to my left, and BAM! Whoops, I didn't realize it was you, Gorbash.. sorry bout the axe to the face.

Another time I really messed up when completing a quest for the Jarl of Markarth where I was supposed to kill a forsworn leader in one of the caves. I entered the cave, not remembering it was the very same cave where my associates from the Cidhna mine break had set up shop after they escaped from Markarth. So I enter the cave, and there is my old buddy Madanach and his cronies, all dressed up in Forsworn gear, of course. Before Madanach had finished his sentence, "ah, there's my friend from Cidhna.." BAM! Axe to the face. Sorry Madanach, I mistook you for one of those hostile Forsworn. No hard feelings eh?
For some reason they didn't quite understand why I did what I did and got a little hostile with me. :D Didn't want to kill them all so I had to reload, enter the cave in peace, sneak up to the hostile Forsworn Briarheart at the back of the cave and kill him stealthily so I wouldn't invoke the wrath of my old chums.

I am happy to report that giants can still send you flying even with maxed armor rating and armor skill, if you let them hit you enough :)

Lol.... Whut?
My dumbest moment was during my time on the civil war. I activated my beserker and went on a rampage. Quite literally. I killed so many allies everyone in the fort was hostile toward me.

Not being able to find the stairs to high hrothgar, and instead using shadowmere to scale the mountain side from the very south end... Took 30+ minutes and killed shadowmere a few times from the falls.

yeah those stairs are wierd cause sometimes you have to go down slightly to then go back up, which had me confused initially :-S

my dumbest moment didnt come from the game. it came from real life. i have been working on the rest of the magic skills for a couple weeks now and wanted to see if you could write books like you can for destruction. well i went on vacation and took my xbox.(this is where the stupid part comes into play.) i get to my in laws house and realize i brought the xbox. but i forgot every game i have and the only controller i brought doesnt have a battery pack. so not only can i not play skyrim i cant even watch netflix. im so retarded sometimes.

While sneaking with Lydia through a dark hallway, we were spotted, and something began attacking me. I instinctively took a swing at the first figure I saw moving. It was Lydia moving in to engage my assailant, I scored a sneak bonus killing her instantly.

Well This isnt something i did but my girl freind came over and played skyrim and she saw the giants in which she thought "Oh a cave man i wonder if they're freindly' I walked in the room in time to say "No babe do-" And see my character become a part of the giants space program

I MEAN TO SAY "WHAT IS THE DUMBEST THING YOU HAVE DONE IN THIS GAME WHILE PLAYING IT?"


Trying to fight Krosis The Dragon Priest at level 30

Heh, I killed Krosis at level 19. I hid a lot but did it by arming Lydia with dual Sparks staves and me Sparking his magic away, then I blasted him with a fireball staff. It took aaaaaages and ages (and several goes).

Mis-timing the duration of Become Ethereal while rock-hopping is my downfall, that coupled with not saving for half an hour before hand..
