Probably my worst is taking the zipline outside airbase and while on it an enemy jumps on from the other side. We collide on it and fall to our deaths.
@apostolateofDOOM yikes that is embarrassing lol.
- @phoenixforce55 In conjunction with this I have just made a post showing what I guess is my most embarrassing death with a video , take a look

This thread makes me feel a lot better about myself.
My worst was shortly after launch, when everyone was figuring out mechanics. I was coming down to land at Water Treatment but dropped at an oblique angle and bounced myself off the map.
More embarrassing because my teammates A: didn't know they could grab my card B: they went on to win, and C: it was my 2nd or 3rd game on a new account set up for testing.
So for a little while my only win on my work account was my falling off the map on drop. @PhoenixForce55 It would be more embarrassing if I said when it happened so I'm going to leave that part out. 😳
- I decided to grenade myself as Octane. I ended up falling off the map. Not a good idea.
My team decided to land at the destroyed skull town (I don't know the actual name) I landed on the edge and decided to slide. Realizing I'm going to die, I proceeded to knock myself out so I wouldn't have to see my beautiful Bloodhound slip on a banana and fall into the water for a swim.

@phoenixforce55There are so many to chose from.. how about any moment in which I have to tell my squad mates. Look, I pictured that going differently in my head.. then there are the moments I have to say “uh, I’m going to be honest. I’m kind of a stupid. You can take my loot.”
My most recent.. i’m going to pull off this clutch play. Enemy are on a platform right above me and I have nades. I think hey, I’lll throw these nades straight up but just slightly in their direction. Spam 2 nades, one takes out my shields, the other knocks me.. i’m sitting there going uh no one saw that right?!
Then there was the guy shooting a kraber. His buddy is shooting a longbow at me. I think hey, he’s not a good shot. I can out snipe him. I pop my head up to line up the shot and I’m dead.
Then there was the Wattson and Caustic camped in a building. They seem low skill and I can’t resist.. what’s a little gas and zap?! I rush into the room. Yeah they baited me into that perfectly.
I pulled off a clutch 1vs4 in duos. One of them has a gold knock down shield. I decide to thermite him then revive my mate. I’m one shot throw the thermite carelessly it hits a rock next to me and kills me. Who ever found those death boxes was stacked @EA_David I actually had the exact same issue at the start of this season lmao, supply ship was flying over treatment, our team goes to land on it and i hit it at a funny angle, it proceeds to slingshot me straight off the ship into a freefall off the map.
Got a few:
Last night: random jumpmaster jumps very late to go on the Salvage rig where Skull Town used to be. Seeing the imminent death, I split away in the last second to head to the Broken Coast secret station. I fly around the crane like a top gun ace, make a few hard turns so I can have the right angle to get on the small platform, see it and the next second... I hit one of the old Skull town huts that was lying at the bottom of the coast and die. Funny thing is that my teammates were already dead at this point, and I was the champion of the arena...
A few nights ago, while playing with @Fr3dY2 : We fight another team inside the tunnel east of artillery. I headshot the enemy Bloodhound with the Mastiff and, just as I'm trying to switch to the R99 to end his misery, I accidentally throw Loba's relocation bracelet straight at him and teleport with my head right in his barrel. He thanked me with some crouch spamming before deathboxing me.
In the first night of Season 5, with @Fr3dY2 and @EryxApex: We plan to drop on the supply ship. I think Eryx misses the landing or is pushed away by that damn bug and lands somewhere in Swamps in the middle of some sweats and gets finished before getting a weapon. We speedloot the supply ship and rush out to rescue our downed teammate before we get too far. Fr3dy2 jumps, then I jump, only to realize the supply ship was pretty far off the new Offshore Rig. Almost choked while trying to not laugh and wake up the whole house.
Oh, and a honorable mention, which @EryxApex told me not to tell anyone, so I'm writing it 🙂:We land with another team at Bloodhound's Trials, we defeat them and proceed to start the Trials. Round 1 - easy, Round 2 - easy, Round 3 - oops, apparently we all forgot to heal and ammo up... Prowlers need to eat something too, no? Like an entire squad 🙂
