Your "oh crap" moments

[flufnstuff]

so my girlfriend was having trouble taking out a sleeping dragon so she asked me to take care of him (she only has x2 dwarvern daggers and felmare bow and she doesn't have her one arm leveled too much and she is level 20) so i pull the daggers out and go at the dragon, after a min he flies up so i decide to run to to shout shrine. right as i get to the shrine and learn the word i hear a tomb bust open and a dragon sage pops out and starts throwing fire balls at me while i have a blood dragon swooping down to bite my ass.

I was messing around in Whiterun as a werewolf one night, and I knew I was screwed as they came after me. Sooooo I ran out of white run and into the woods. As i was waiting to become a human again a Frost Dragon flew over head. I turned back into a human low on health... and only had a bow and around 20 arrows. At the time i was level 6... I am level 15 now but still i was scared haha.

I looked how to kill the troll online, they just told me to run past it and i did because ur still a low level person. So from then on any trolls i see i run past, they are slow and they give up, listen to the music it will help u.

Im using the More Powerfull Dragons mod, with the "de-leveled" option, so dragons of random level appear against me, not taking in count my level... Need to say more?

I was doing a "gigant" kill quest on whiterun and a dragon appeared, i was out of potions since the gigant almost kill me, like 4 times, the dragon kill the gigant and then turn on my, was an ancient dragon, the bastard is like 30 levels above me, his fire breath just turn me to ashes in seconds... I leaved my horse far from the camp of the gigant to assure he wasn`t killed by it, when the dragon shown up (i see the golden color of ancient dragon and i was like: "oh boy...") i run as fast as i could to get to the horse and then get the fl*ff out of there as fast as i can... The dragon kill the very last of the gigant in a single fire burst and then go after me, he dont even land, he just burned me from above, my life bar dont even drop down, it just appear empty xD...

I can think of two

The first time I encountered a frost troll

and the first time encountering a giant and a mammoth

I think I was around level 4 or 5 I was trying to complete the quest of retrieving the nettlebaine?? I think that's how it's spelled ... but anyway I was walking to do my quest almost to my destination I saw a side road so thinking its a shortcut through a mountain trail I took it .... I'm strolling along taking in the scenery from atop of part of the mountain when I noticed a bright white floating figure in the middle of the path....not sure what it was but I decided to sneak down just to be cautious/curious thought about it for a sec an said to myself I can handle this thing (whatever it was) ...pulled out my bow an shot an arrow at it the thing flew towards me shooting out these electric looking balls that followed me everywhere I went an did a ton of damage to me... as I'm fleeing trying to heal myself and attack it at the same time I noticed the floating ghost looking mermaid thing was destroying me an I did little to no damage ... I tried running but the electric balls came after an slaughtered me... anyone know what it is??

You just met a Wispmother.
I was being attacked by a epic dragon in the middle of the road with no cover, then it veered off to attack not one but 2 sabre cats after slaying the bunch a giant came out of nowhere.

When I drove my horse of a cliff and it lay there dead infront of me

A Giant And 2 Mammoths Chased Me To Whiterun. I Was Using Magic To Kill Them On The wall. The Giant Snuck Around And Got Inside The Inner Part Of The Gates. I Had To Keep The Mammoths Around And Fight The Giant.

 

[Tactikul]

Started skyrim as my first in the Elder Scroll Series. "Oh a Giant? Well, I'm the player so I can kill anything right?" Proceeded to get launched 50ft in the air and crash land in a pile of humility.

 

[Metas]

The first time a Giant came after me while i was trying to take down one of his mammoths... after running out of stamina i was given a very nice death sleeping with the fishes...or in this case i was sleeping with the birds

I might be to late to help you out but, you can either aggro him and try to juke him out. Or walk around the small hill on the left of the path and completely avoid his cave.

At the battle of whiterun I decided to turn my difficulty all the way up(i was pretty noobish at the time)
Next thing i notice is that im the last guy in the imperial army alive, I then utter the words "oh crap" and died a few seconds later

I came across the group of Imperial soldiers with a Stormcload prisoner and did what I usually do. I killed the Imperials, looted one of them for his equipment, and gave the equipment to the prisoner when I freed him. The prisoner says something and starts running down the road...only to get killed by a sabrecat. Lot of good it did me freeing that guy.

Was walking around near the watchtower where you face your first dragon in "Dragon Rising" when I hear the dragon music. I was a low level, and had a little difficulty draining its health. I have it about half dead when it flies over a hill then rapidly loses health. I run over to go help what I figure is soldiers or something. End up finding the dragon dead and I'm face to face with 2 giants and 2 mammoths. This was my first encounter with giants, so I hit the closest giant once with a steel mace and was promptly sent 1000 feet in the air.

Before I knew about the ebony mine and the daedra heart vendor, I'd spent AGES trying to craft a Daedric Warhammer, only to accidentally unequip the thing on top of a freakin' mountain. I never found it again.
