Probably the Worst Way to Die in Cyrodiil

I've seen a lot of horrible deaths on the battlefield. Ranging from people being uppercutted off of the top of an outpost to their death below... To a 1vX gone wrong, as the people they were 1vX'ing shapeshifted into werewolves and shredding the guy... I've seen numerous horrors of war. But, I think this takes the cake. What you see above is a situation that goes from bad to worse in the timespan of about 5 seconds.

The lessons to be learned...?
1. Whatever you do, do NOT call yourself fighting multiple DK's at the same time, if solo or duo. You won't win that fight.
2. Do NOT jump off a higher point to a lower point, unless you know for a fact your landing will be clear. Situational awareness is key.
3. Fear the murky waters...

TLDR Version: Guy calls himself living up his owl name, and 'flying' to safety. But instead gets fossilized inside of flesh-eating waters, and dies a humiliating and slow death.

@SONEshock Pretty graphic, right? The battlefield is definitely a gory sight to see, if certain criteria is met. And I just so happened to not only capture that one, but be involved in it personally.

Or do what I do all the time and roll dodge off

If that is the worst way to die 2nd worst has to be sneaking from Fort Ash to the Gate of Mnem to try and catch some ocean fish only to be killed by Slaughterfish before you get a line in the water.

@kargen27 LOL! That has actually happened before?

Almost as funny, or maybe more so... our guild used to hold fishing events to help people get the Master Fisherman achievement. We worked our way down where the ocean fish can be found and fished a couple of holes. One person saw a fishing hole across the way and announced it in group. Before we could stop them three people took off towards the hole and died to Slaughterfish.

On the positive side, once you catch that last trophy fish the slaughterfish provide a quick and easy way home.

That's a Disney villain death right there.

Can't count the times I've fell off that ledge. Mostly due to untimely rolldodge (I have my rolledodge double tap interval set to quite low and I often end up rolldodging when I don't want to, and often over walls and bridges)

Disable double tap to rolldodge, bind rolldodge to the 'V' key. You can thank me later.

LMAO! I just noticed that if you listen clearly enough during the video, you can hear the guy's character scream, "No!" or "Oh!" when they land in the waters. Looool
