i posted this in B8C but its still one of the funniest things ive seen in a game
i was just minded my own business blastin foxes and bunnies with fireballs when all of a sudden i saw a dude standin on some 30 foot tall-ish rock spire (no idea how he even got up there) guarding a cave entrance. he tried to tell me that I SHOULD HAVE NEVER COME THERE but before he could finish his threat he had already been fus ro dah'd off not just his rock tower but the entire mountain itself. i found him in a river after like 10 minutes of searching for his body
I'm exploring a dungeon and two dudes catch sight of me and come running down some steps at me. I FUS RO DAH, and they go hurtling back up the steps, only for one of them to hit a trap switch and one of those big spike walls slams out and smacks them back down, sending them sailing over my head. They didn't survive.

The first time I went into that Dwemer ruin that leads to Blackreach, I hadn't seen Falmer yet (not even on the loading screen), and basically had no idea they even existed besides that they were an ancient race that disappeared. Anyway, I was sneaking through the ruin as I tend to do (I usually go through entire dungeons in sneak), but I kept getting this weird feeling. I hadn't been attacked by any automatons in awhile, but I knew there had to be more enemies around. Then I heard some sort of noise next to me, and I turned and saw a Falmer right in my face (it hadn't seen me because my sneak was so good and I was wearing the DB boots that cancel foot noise). Scared the s*** out of me. Then I looked behind me and saw another where I was earlier. Basically, I had unintentionally avoid a ton of Falmer by doing what I normally do. This was all late at night, too, so all-in-all my heart was racing for a little bit.
Let's see...during one quest where I had to find these shards of a necklace or something by defeating Draugr, they kept Fus Ro Dah'ing me, and this was the first time this was happening to me, so every time they knocked me down I thought they had oneshot killed me, so I kept reloading. Imagine my surprise when, during a moment of frustration after another "death", I saw my character stand back up.
Got attacked by a dragon in the College of Winterhold entrance area once. All of the teachers were out there at the time, and man, they took that dragon out in no time. I think I got one Fireball in before they killed it.
Funniest moment, though, was a glitch involving the Companions. This is a big ol' SPOILER FOR THE COMPANIONS QUESTLINE, so if you haven't done that yet, you should avoid this. Anyway, I posted a thread about it on the Skyrim boards back when it happened, and here it is in copypasta form:
"Went to Darkwater Crossing and talked to this one lady I can't remember the name of, and this lead to a miscellaneous quest where I was told to go to Gallows Rock, the location where you find Skjor dead. It was once again full of Silver Hand members, so I went through it again and killed them all, including Krev the Skinner. It was weird fighting the exact same enemies I had faced before all come back to life (Some even had no armor on since I looted it the first time around). But that's only the minor weirdness.
What was really weird was when I fast-traveled from Gallows Rock back to Darkwater Crossing to talk to the lady again, Skjor was there, too. Now, I've heard tales of him glitching back to life and being alive and well, so if that had happened, it wouldn't have surprised me so much. But no, it wasn't quite like that. Instead, Skjor's naked body (I looted his Wolf Armor off of him the first time around) was gliding, halfway collided through the ground, in a straight path along the road. When I tried to talk to him, he said the same general things you'd here him say when he was alive in Jorrvaskr, but without any dialogue options. And when I finally decided to kill him to ended the weirdness, he continued to glide along alive and well, though still taking damage from my Blade of Woe strikes and still sapping charges from it. I suspect if I had a strong enough soul trap weapon, this would work wonders to fill Black Soul Gems.
I tried to take pictures of the incident with Steam's built-in screenshot system, but they didn't save, for some reason. Figures the one time it wouldn't work would be this one."
I actually did manage to find the screenshots hidden deep in my Steam folder though. So enjoy:
That's all I got for now.

Louis Letrush is stuck halfway into the ground outside of Whiterun for me. Though apparently this is a common glitch. At first I thought he was some kind of weird half-man. Then another him spawned right next to him.

I was doing a mission for the Stormcloaks. We won and there was one of our guys up on a rock almost dead. I FUS RO DAH'd him off the ledge and he died. The rest of the group ran over and one guy kneels down and says something like, "I'll kill whoever did this."

I was heading back to Whiterun after doing a Companion quest that takes place fairly close by. Farkas was with me, and it was late at night. Whiterun was close enough that I decided to walk back.
It was a completely uneventful trip until we were right outside the walls of the city. I heard what sounded like a dragon roar and I stopped and looked all around in the sky. I didn't see anything, so I continued on.
Less than five seconds later a dragon swooped right over my head and roared. Scared the crap outta me. He ignored me and started attacked the guards at the gate. I stayed back and shot him full of arrows. He had about a quarter of his health left when he decided to land and attack me and I finished him off easily.
Then, as I was absorbing the soul, Farkas randomly goes, "Oh! A battle!" and unsheathes his sword. Fitting, considering his reputation as being kind of dumb.
I was stealthing my way through a dungeon, picking off a draugr wight with my bow. As it was walking towards me, in a hall, it took its last arrow. As it fell forward it activated a pressure plate triggering a swinging spike wall which accelerated the wight immensely, almost hitting me with its corpse. I was thoroughly surprised.
