I had the most bizarre thing happen to me whilst playing in Murkmire today. I ran off the docks and died from fall damage.

So here's my death recap, and a picture of where I "fell" from.

Needless to say, my teammate found it highly amusing as did I after I got over the "wtf just happened". :D

    Probably a small glitched surface tile on some spot, or something, which you moved over. Similar to like when you sprint on a mount, jumping on some spots sometimes can make you jump up lot higher than normally possible, making you hurt on landing.
    Life is a ride, like days in a train, cities rush by, like ghosts in the night.
    The rhythm of wheels, time fades away, stations of a journey, destination unknown.

    You tripped and broke your ankle. It turned out to be a fatal injury in those swamps.

    What happened (I think) was I fell between the boat and the dock and glitched there. I sort of floated with my arms up after leaving the walkway and was stuck there for about 3-4 seconds before the death recap popped up.

    I just found it amusing to get so much fall damage from that little drop. :D

    It's because fall damage is calculated on the amount of time being in the air, not on the distance to the surface. If for some reason you'd jump up and not come back down (like those glitched narrow spots as you described), when you do land again, the damage can be quite insane.
    Probably explains why there is no flying on mounts possible with that game engine.

    There you go. You were crushed when the boat moved back in towards the dock.

    Should have been here in the early days, when you could fall through the terrain and find your character stuck in a never-ending fall. Those were funny, but way too common.

    That's kind of funny. I've gotten "Environmental Damage" of over 23k twice in BGs while I'm in play near enemy spawns.

    That's kind of funny. I've gotten "Environmental Damage" of over 23k twice in BGs while I'm in play near enemy spawns.

    That’s something totally different though. The player spawn points are protected both in Imperial City as well as in BGs to prevent spawn camping. It’s an intended mechanic.

    This fall damage here isn’t. It’s rather akin to the Meteor bug on stairs that plagued Cyrodiil years ago.
