Here we explain our most embarrassing deaths in WoW.
In recent memory...
I was in the Firewing place in Terokkar, and I used the orb of translocation to get to the top of a tower. The edges had no guardrails, I lost concentration for a sec and when I looked back at the screen, I found my character half way to his death. I couldn't activate bubble, was on cooldown =/
Others including losing a PvP battle to a Hunter 6 levels lower than me. It was a 46 b a 52. It was very late, and I was tired, but it was a shocker still. It was on my UD rogue.
And Taken by Niaro, I'm (obviously) Dawson. Check the chat log. I was grinding marks of Sargeras with Niaro up in Netherstorm and I saw someone at half-health over by the edge of one of the cliffs and saw him walk backwards over the side. I ran on over to see if he died from the fall... and ended up falling myself while trying to look over the edge lol...
My second worst was probably while questing in Netherstorm (again). I was up by one of the mana forges and summoned my mount and jumped over the side of a cliff in order to fly back to Area 52 only to realize I had summoned my horse mount.
Probably other terrible ones, but they aren't coming to me ATM.
