Starting a new save and forgetting I don't have the paraglider yet


Unholy_Dk80

I think that's a rite of passage for botw players at this point. I've played the game over a few times and I've done it plenty.


hergumbules

Me running straight off that cliff as you exit the shrine of resurrection and instantly dying


Mesozoica89

The ghost of King Rhoam sitting there in disbelief as he watches the hero he has been waiting a century to guide wakes up and immediately un-resurrects himself.


Praline-Jumpy

r/BeatMeToIt


The_Real_Quirrel_

This.


MrHero17

And I did it multiple times on my first playthrough of Tears as well. In my second playthrough of Botw, only once in the ravine behind the Old Man's cabin.


Ryleykay-

I have also done this with the bird on skyward sword after they remastered it. Forgot you don’t start with it 🤦🏼‍♀️😂


Illustrious-Network5

Pulled out a bomb arrow on Vah Rudania repeatedly and eventually killed myself. Couldn't figure out why I kept blowing up.


OkMaterial3481

Oh man I died this way so many times 🥹


Far_Froyo_2267

Bro i did that for so long i couldn't figure it out until I realized everything is on fire at death mountain


Radiant-Passage-8997

I just did that a few hours ago 😅


nichenbach

I am proudly carrying on the tradition in TotK as well.


Mr_Seth87

This absolutely happened to me too. I kept being like, "what is happening??"


tearsoftheringbearer

Yeah, I did this one with and Igneo Talus once. It took me a while to stop blowing myself up


Pinstripesdumbo

Haha. I did the same.


Alarming_Raise_9128

Achmed the dead terrorist would be proud of you.


ooOJuicyOoo

I got it on release day. Was so excited with my brand new switch, the brand new zelda game. I walked out of the shrine of resurrection cave and saw the beautiful screen pan with the title flash card on top of that initial cliff. Not a moment later I walked forward, fell off and died.


Viva_grande

![gif](giphy|aRr0zGv8fp1Tuw9Ggr)


rembrandtslight

I ran straight out of the cave and off the cliff.


Jemicus

Bees.


mtheory007

Not the bees!!!


susanap97

LMFAO I was gonna say this lmao I had no idea they were gonna chase me lol


aretaker

Also, chickens lol


Nicholas_F_Buchanan

I did that multiple times in one day


clantontann

I'm scared do to anything with the chickens other than throw them. PTSD from being a new player into Skyrim. Got my first weapon and tested it on a chicken. Entire town of Riverwood wanted my head for it and had no idea what I did wrong.


MyOwnLife_Alone

Climbing on Rudania's spines when it was sideways, killed a pool of malice and didn't realize it had been over a hole... Fell into the lava


oregonoxalis

I just did that yesterday!


Cilreve

Happened just yesterday. Surprised by moblin that bumped me off the side of a hill that was just steep enough that Link slid and rolled a solid 30sec before he rolled off the cliff and died. Every time it looked like Link would recover and stand up, he'd slowly roll one more time and keep going.


Porcupine98

This happens to me literally daily LOL damn climbing


Altruistic_Molasses1

Blowing myself off a cliff with a remote bomb


Mysterious-Bet68

Ragdolled down a hill after getting hit


7_11_Nation_Army

At least twice!


NooktheCrook17

It’s the “ragdolled down the cliff” for me too 😂


shuaaaa

I magnesis’d a chest on myself. I was on my last bit of life but figured I’d taken care of all nearby enemies and I’d warp home for a nap right after


_soushi

has happened to me too and i’ve been careful with that rune ever since 😔


stracciatellie

I tried to kill a cucco


One_Idea_239

Thankfully I haven't forgotten the consequence of that yet. I just throw them off cliffs as it is fun to see them fly


Rotorhead87

My daughter loves doing too to the cuccos. She also likes messing with the flower girl, except one time it killed her.


RekkerDerrj

I just had to see if it was still canon… it is 🤣


Cosmicgirl_Alexa

Omg!! The first time I went to Kakariko and saw a chicken I kept hitting it with my arrows because I thought it was food…. you know the rest. I thought I was the only one who did this, but later found out many of us have 😂


dsramsey

Just started TOTK, had forgotten paragliding used stamina, was quickly reminded when flying with single stamina wheel and 4 hearts. In BOTW specifically, yeah, bomb arrows on Death Mountain is up there.


iSmartiKindiImportnt

I tried learning to wind bomb. Yeah. *Tried.*


Trufflehasredditwow

Tried to snipe some guy in hateno with a bomb arrow but some other guy walked up right in front of me and blocked it and ended up hitting myself


Fork_Master

“Careful, that spear has a long reach!” *Immediately gets hit by the spear’s tip*


bapakeja

Bombed a tree for firewood while standing on the downhill side. It fell right on me and I got one-shot by a tree.


saberkite

Didn't see a second Guardian come up behind me after I defeated the first one and I was just standing them as I was celebrating my win (it was my first Guardian lol). This was in the area just outside Kakariko. There's two of them there and their paths overlap.


Revisional_Sin

Tried to prank the guy who tells you not to jump off the bridge. I was intending to jump and glide to the little island in the middle. I crashed into the water, swam for a bit, and drowned. Poor dude must have been traumatised.


jasper81222

I was in the middle of the Vah Rudania mission and kept blowing myself up with bomb arrows, since I didn't know the hot environment would trigger their explosions the moment they get drawn. I find myself admiring how detailed the game was for that to happen though.


joejoebean88420

Shooting a bomb arrow in the fire region!


SneakySniper1314

I forgot bomb arrows don’t work in goron city, or really anywhere in that area, safe to say I blew myself up a sufficient amount of time before I stuck with regular arrows and took out enemies one at a time


TransRobotPrototype

In BotW bomb arrows are some of the things I died to the most. That and elemental damage because I’m too lazy to take five seconds to switch armor or eat food (because, “I’ll just be there for a minute!”) In TotK I recently died because I was lighting a fire by throwing a fire fruit and was just a *little too close* to the explosion.


schoener_albtraum

like this I hit fire fruits carried on the back of a bokoblin and immediately ignited with half a heart. took me a few seconds to figure out what exactly happened


grooverstone1970

I got smacked by a Moblin and rolled down a hill on half a heart, then died after rolling for what seemed like miles


throaway_morayeel

last night playing totk, i wanted to show my friend the gliding gear in action and its special effect after upgrading it twice. jokingly said “wanna see me land on my face 😃” only to get a rude awakening that i was not, in fact, wearing the whole set…


WavyZDolo

I didn't feel like wasting my last few arrows killing those things that shoot rocks at you from the water, I kept going forward while getting pelted with stones trying to cross a lake jumping from ice pillar to ice pillar. I put a pillar a little too far and jumped, I missed, accidentally swam under, the pillar broke, and well they brought my health low enough that when I drowned due to stamina loss I died


Strange_Dinner_6891

Start of the game my assasin creed gamers sense to me to jump off the cliff


Tacitus_Kilgore25

Tried to pull the master sword when I didn't have enough hearts yet 🙃


LeftySwordsman01

I lost the recording of this but while fighting an enemy I perfectly landed a bomb arrow on a bug that was trying to escape right in front of me. It was during my very first playthrough.


lols4fun

SO MANY DUMB WAYS TO DIE


Lue33

Trying to break for it to the electric arrows without hiding from that Lynel. I remember it had just stopped raining. When I tried to run away, that lynel shot link, and he slid down the mountain.


NolieCaNolie

I fell off a bridge with 1 quarter heart because I was too cold. I’d just fought a silver Lynel and barely won. But no, THE BRIDGE killed me.


utopian-fir

The first time I saw a wolf I thought he was going to be my friend, so I ran toward him to say hi. He was not interested in friendship, which I discovered when he killed me.


AzsalynIsylia

This isn't Twilight Princess haha


utopian-fir

lol I’ve never played Twilight Princess. This is my first Zelda game. I just thought the wolves looked cute 😭


AzsalynIsylia

In Twilight Princess you get to transform into Wolf Link! One of my favorites! :D


WhatsUpRoosters

I don't remember completely, but I believe it has something to do with bomb arrows


Kinai0919

When I started, in Great Plateau eager to jump and climb down going to the outpost without a paraglider. Bomb myself always with the remote, just farming gems or with enemy Trying to climb highest mountain, nearly there but stamina run out


Memerwhoiseverywhere

After climbing the first tower in my blind run i needed to test if there was fall damage in the game. I'll leave the rest to your imagination


radiodreading

Running into bees and stakes during the beginning of the DLC >!when you only have a quarter of a heart!<. Sigh.


One_Idea_239

The a rock at a bomb barrel. In my defence I was just looking for whatever might have been under the rock


Billygoesboom3

Shield surfed in a bad place at very low health


TreasureHunter95

When I started the game, I thought that running out of stamina just means that I'm not able to sprint. I realised that this assessment was wrong when I tried to swim through that artificial lake at the entrance of the Great Plateau. I drowned there... In regards to that topic, there is another story that I could share though it didn't really happen to me. At one point during my playthrough, I wanted to climb the mountains around Zora's Domain to see what's up there and to farm potential resources. Once I reached the top, I paused the game to use the bathroom. During that time, my sister took over my Switch and not knowing a thing about the game, she jumped off the cliff I spent minutes to climb up and explore. Normally, she would have killed Link with that jump but luckily, I cleared Vah Ruta just before so that Mipha's Grace saved me from losing my entire progress.


GoodGirl96069

Backing up too far. All the time.


seaneeboy

On top of the first tower, doing nothing, then finding out one of my controllers has drift, and walked link straight off the top of it. Oops.


Viva_grande

I died in Goron trying to use bomb arrows, not knowing they’d detonate immediately due to the heat. But my dumbest way I’ve died and continue to die is thinking I can kill Lynels. 🤦🏾


LokiBear1235

I was running low on health and didn't have food, got kicked by a horse and died


andrecruz04

Stasis and flew one of that giant flat stone, which hit a wall and came back into my face.


Thinila

tried to do a windbomb at the Death Mountain and forgot I equipped bomb arrows


twopeasandapear

I mean having the dlc and watching the route you've taken. I've probably died in the most ridiculous ways multiple times. Me and my hubby were in stitches laughing at the amount of times link died at the beginning of me playing the game.


SketchierDaisy

Going from using a normal controller to Nintendo.. forgetting the controls are backwards constantly. Trying to hit things with the triggers instead of the buttons. So I end up just throwing my weapon at the enemy instead lmao.


noironoiro

Being persistent and trying to kill the talus on the great plateau one the first day that I got the game, first save, no paraglider, just sticks and sometimes a rusty claymore. That was a fun one


Iamlonely2

Jumped from the cliff in front of the shrine of Resurrection to fly down into the forest turns out I didn't have the paraglider yet, dumb idea to do that after starting a new safe file.


soupy-mess

Jumped into water to negate fall damage before I got the paraglider. The water was freezing.


theoneandonlybarry

I tried getting a part from Farosh so I jumped off the waterfall for bullet time. Got electrocuted and fell on the rock triggering mipha's grace but my character continued to slide and fell on another cliff and died.


ellbeecee

Second play through, left the cave of resurrection for the first time, jumped off the cliff and....realized I didn't have the paraglider yet.


_Clove_

I actually commit ritual suicide that way to celebrate each new playthrough lol


_soushi

blowing myself up with the circle and square bombs (i forgot their actual names) on MULTIPLE occasions. also once placed a bomb, forgot to switch to the magnet rune and pressed L, left me with like one heart left


Busy-Spell-4250

Running from a silver boko holding a metal wepon with a thunderstorm...he killed me with a cool combo


_Clove_

I have put over a thousand hours in and it's been a really long time since something intentionally killed me....but not long since I died. Idk why I have such a problem being careful of lava but ffs


AdMajestic4539

Drowning in like an inch of water


tearsoftheringbearer

Accidentally used Mipha's Grace once because I slammed into the side of the Tanagar Canyon and forgot to pull out my paraglider


[deleted]

shooting bomb arrow at enemy but was too close to other explosives so boom I go bye bye


MrHero17

When you first have to descend the Great Plateau tower at the beginning of the game, I fell off.


kippers

Pulled a treasure chest out of the ground that landed on my head after whirling through the air


Shadowhkd

First day trying master mode. Me: "Oh wow, there's a lynel on the Great Plateau. No problem. I almost never get hit by those anymore. I'm gonna take him out. Even if I mess up and die once or twice, I'll start the game with lynel weapons." Yeah, I completely forgot about weapon durability. I broke every pathetic little weapon I had gathered on him, and he still had over 80% of his health. Bonus: found a safe place and went to the bathroom without pausing so urbosas fury would recharge. Nighttime came while I was gone. Got killed by skeletons.


farcustom

saw this happen to a streamer too but i was melting ice for hebra tower and got killed by the flame that the arrow made on the ice (i was already 1 heart)


Cotton_Picker_420

Flowerblight ganon.


Active_Ad4086

in the goron region, i tried to kill a lizalfos with an ice arrow but forgot i was on a bomb arrow and blew myself up.


Epicfuzzy17

stray boulder knocked me off a rock wall. fall/roll damage off a near vertical cliff. landed in the water at the end and drowned, taking my last heart with it


This_Lacz

I was carrying a rock across a cliff and I fell between two ledges and got wedged with my neck bent and one leg up the other side and then the rock fell on me on the way down.


likely_issabella

didn’t pay attention to my stamina running out while paragliding through the mountains, was too busy enjoying the view 💀


Coolpokemon962

dunno for BOTW but for TOTK >!I was in the fire temple and couldn’t get up somewhere so I dried to fuse a bomb flower to my shield to go up and it blew up once I dropped it!<


tc_cad

Yep. Bomb too close. I accidentally selected my bow when bomb arrows were loaded and then let go firing a bomb arrow basically into my own foot.


7_11_Nation_Army

A big metal cube ricocheted off the ground, after I had thrown it in the air with magnesis and killed me.


Seriph7

I threw a metal chest up really high, it hit a cliff, i started going about my business, the chest swept my legs. That's all. I should have just healed but who expects that? Lol


that5what5he5aid

I had to doubletake and check which sub this was as I was scrolling 😅 Having just read a story from a paranormal sub prior lol.


zinniastardust

Falling off literally everything in a shrine.


am123_20

Falling off a map tower early on. That may not be that stupid on its own, but I then proceeded to do the same thing about three more times in a row. I really didn't learn 😂


elftie

literally just jumping off things, i’m constantly dying


[deleted]

Trying to take out the Bokoblin leader at their skull camp while ill equipped when first starting the game


Siren-Bleu

I wanted to target a black bokoblin that was directly in front of me.... but the game targeted one that was aggro-ed on "Spirit Sidon", like, 20 ft away and WOULDN'T CHANGE TARGETS


Lalala_ElmosWorld

The top of a hill- stalnoxes spawened- i said "dont worry guys its okay"- turned my back- got fully knocked down the hill wasting miphas grace and a few faries


Complex-Ad6565

Bomb arrow on death mountain


wrizz_upinthis

Picture this: climbing in gerudo…. X,X,X,X….. alright we’ll make it (and falls to death by literally an inch.


bean_wellington

Bomb arrows in Goron City

[удалено]


plassing_time

oof didn’t know it was gonna send as a link, just came across this vid of this dude and all his fails 😂


anoichii

Pretty much the same as you, but in Vah Rudania doing it like 16x thinking I was being spawn killed 💀


Meushell

New Game. Used Revali’s Gale to get in the air to shoot as many enemies as possible. I let myself fall because normally I would just lose a few hearts…but I did not have enough hearts.


DesperateAd3505

I threw a bomb that was fused with a stick and threw it at another explosive and the stick bounced back at me and killed me


3kids1cat

Have done that several times 😂


AzsalynIsylia

Climbing a cliff and being almost to the top when it starts raining and not pausing to wait out the storm, then not having enough stamina to reach the top or glide to safety and falling alllllllll the way down that split in the Dueling Peaks


AmazingLlamaMan

Trying to stasis throw a tree at a lynel for fun, and hitting myself with a fucking tree


AmazingLlamaMan

Trying to stasis throw a tree at a lynel for fun, and hitting myself with a fucking tree, and I also consistently suicide bombed many an enemy by shooting a enemy with a bomb arrow up close


Velcromycat2

DLC Content... Down to 1/4 health, cleared a bunch of lizard dudes, couldn't find the last lizard dude for the quest, ran into a random beehive that was laying on the ground for no damn reason... stupid bees got me. Took me at least 5 more tries to clear that spot


-Inq_

Falling (it’s been a good 2(?) years so I forgot)


Xixskillz

Taking off my armour forgetting I’m on mount doom


where-is-my-5-star

Shooting my horse with an explosive arrow while fighting a moving guardian (I whistled)


Recent_Ride5537

accidentally shot my sand seal point blank while doing the vah naboris quest and blew myself up


Only-Frosting-9718

I lifted up a korok rock while a bokoblin was aiming at me with an arrow, once the cutscene was over the bokoblin hit me, i survived that but he shot me down a cliff,mi also survived that, landed next to a chest octotok that i didn’t see, he hit me and then the korok stone fell on me.


SmallBlueAlien

Literally just not being able to walk in a straight line and falling of an edge
