Post funny, stupid or weird glitches that's happened to you

[Argonanza]

The magic effects thing fixed itself. That's a relief.

[Trelares]

Just one funny thing in the College,

Spoiler:

I was schedulded to meet the Psijic Mage, I run past acano and spoke to him, then I talked to the archmage and he said it is strange that the psijic has left, but the mage still stood there, till acano came, the two spoke and then he left.

What you're about to see is me flying thousands of feet above Whiterun after being killed by a Giant. It's quite spectacular.

Spoiler:

[OblivionDuruza]

I am so getting killed by a giant now! I've been avoiding them like the plauge, but I want to be slung into the heavens for myself after seeing that .

[Eltee]

FORE!
Yeah, I had a five gold bounty from accidentally picking up a cheese wedge, and all of Falkreath was chasing me around and refusing to accept my surrender. I eventually used Battlecry to scare them away, then hid in a cave, weeping, hoping they wouldn't find me.

Was in Whiterun and came across a man chopping wood - with his invisible axe. Could hear the chopping sounds and he even had his hands grasped around said invisible axe. Was pretty funny.

I just killed myself by jumping off a watch tower in Whiterun. Game reloaded, and as I started walking I almost got clocked by a Giant's hammer that fell from the sky out of nowhere. Damned thing almost killed me again.

You can't pick up books in the PC version. It's stupid. It's a blatantly obvious glitch that was completely ignored.

[&@%!] Bethesda.

It's a bug but here's how u pick up books. Hold down E key, while holding down, press activation button continue pressing E and press activation button a second time. For it to work activation has to be bound to keyboard not mouse.

Grabbing, or taking books? I have no problem taking books, so I have to assume you mean grabbing them since I haven't tried. I'm sure that's something that will be fixed.

He's talking about the quest related books needed for pickup to finish quests not the random junk reading books found along the way

[cheap pocketman]

Not sure if its a glitch or not but in Riverwood, 3 strong hired thugs strolled into town to kill me (i was a thief, but no-one ever saw me steal) and they were given the contract by Alvor's daughter Dorthe (she's just a child!)

[OblivionDuruza]

I don't think that's a glitch, it's not the first time I've heard about it (also click). There are some pretty messed up children in Skyrim, like that girl in Whiterun who's always bullying that Battle-Born boy.

[Stereotype]

I woke someone up, left the area and came back, and she was sleeping in midair about 3 feet from the bed. I've also removed a prisoner from a cell by jamming his guard's body into the door of the nearest cell, causing him to teleport to the corpse, and I've waited until someone finished a public speech and killed them in a back room only for them to drop into the floor and pop up on the podium they spoke from, quite dead.

[The-Shadow-One]

i was escaping solitude prison got out off my cell.
next thing my char knows is she's fallen though the floor and popped up at the exit of the area.. O.O
MAGICAL TELEPORT!

[Madavascus]

When I first arrived in Riverwood, Faendal was dead in the middle of the street. I have no idea why. I have the impression he's supposed to be alive?

[Kavatch99]

Walking into a Companion hangout, I saw a woman randomly run to fight a Dunmer. Turns out they're both part of the Companion guild and this was normal.

I almost wanted to rush in to save the Dunmer. Good thing I passed an NPC who corrected me. xD

Dead bandits keeps falling through the ground.

So does my resurrected mudcrab.


And the water in Whiterun loses it's ripples if you stand in it somewhere where it doesn't fall.

[Mr.Alaska]

Take your horse in the water get off and get back on while he is swimming. You will now be riding him like he is on land until you leave the water. Also i was trying to kill a giant and he threw me thousands of feet in the air. I had a nice view of all of sky rim from up there.

Well, Giants does have the habit of flinging you across the landscape...

[crimsonknightwr]

I was fighting a frost dragon who could fly under water
Outside of whiterun fought another frost dragon who rather kill all the muddcrabbs in the river then defined himself. After I killed him I fast traveled winterhold got killed when game loaded the autosave it duplicated his corpus. Also had a dead dragon pop up in the middle of whiterun

[dubq]

Stupid or weird glitch category. I know this has happened on 360 due to install/cache thing, where the textures will be scaled back.. but I've noticed it a few times on PS3. Sometimes, for example, in your inventory the Iron Helmet with the horns will be fully textured and look great.. other times it's really dull and low resolution. I've noticed this with the leather armor and leather bracers as well. Anyone else?

[perylousdemon]

I think this qualifies as funny/weird... Louis here glitched into the ground (while riding his horse, it seems), and the game made another copy of him! http://img829.imageshack.us/img829/4756/sillyglitch.png

[MasterRokon]

Every dragon i kill, bones appear outside the gate of white run, also for me mudcrabs when they arent in attack mod goes halfway into the ground.

[zzfallens]

Very weird glitch I encountered. On the road up from Windhelm to the Nightgate Inn, I saw a dragon off in the distance. I readied my sword and destruction spells and went after it. After its introduction it swooped down to my level, and glitched to become invisible. I was so scared that I didn't know where it was while it was casting fire down at me, that I quit and reloaded the save. It was still invisible Had to kill an invisible dragon, quite proud of myself

[Travalanche]

After buying a home in Whiterun "my favorite city" I bought all the upgrades and it looked great but after moving a single item, leaving the house, and going back in an hour later EVERY item... from bowls to vegetables, to books, were scattered all over the ground and I refuse to pick anything up.

[Blue the Thief]

Okay, so After I had just finished a quest for.... Well, I won't spoil it, but basically it involved silently killing a group of bandits so I could take the leaders armour as a sign of my awesomeness. Anyway, as I was leaving the hideout, I saw a dragon. No biggie, right? If I don't see a dragon every five minutes, there's something wrong.

Except this one was stuck in the ground So I did what any normal person would do: SNEAK ATTACK!

I discovered two things: One, I did next to no damage to him (I did at least 1500 points of damage ). And two?

It was Alduin. The World-Eater.

I had just attacked Alduin.

MOTHER*BLEEPING* ALDUIN!

*Girlish scream*

So, I pulled out my bow, poisoned it, drank a potion of True Shot, summoned my Spectral Assassin, and prepared to die a fiery death.

....Then he flew off like a pansy All while the Skyrim Theme played.

I swear I'm not making this up. I don't even know how that could happen. Does Alduin spend his spare time flying around Skyrim? Does he stalk you? I'm so confused....
