So! What is your most embarrasing defeat by an enemy. The name hints fantasy setting but it can be any.

Most unexpected surprise attack.
Most humiliating defeat.
Most unfathomable loss.
or
Most aggrivating I-went-for-a-piss-and-leave-my-level-100-character-here-and-he-was-eaten moment?

Mine would have to be getting attacked by a kwama forager in Morrowind at the start of the game only to have no weapon, terrified i use icaren flight from that corpse and jump, only to land and die right next to the worm who undoubtedly eat me.

I like to imagine this as your character having the forager sneak up on him, and being so surprised he jumped two-hundred feet into the air.

Oddly enough, we make fun of our whoever dies to a goomba during our 4 player NSMBW game. Of course, I usually get caught in yoshi juggling. Damn video.

Mudcrabs.

They're sneaky okay!

Best. Mental image. EVER.

I had a 2 kill/10 death Team Deathmatch game in MW2 today. They kept sending in Harriers and I didn't want to leave the building 'cause they were right on top of it. I'm so ashaaaameed!

I think I more than made up for it a few games later when I got a 26/6 game in Free For All.

Spoiler: Details inside!

I hijacked an enemy crate, got an AC130 out of it, killed everyone a few times, it ran out, I killed a few with guns, got a Predator, got a double kill with it, realized that I had a Care Package the whole time, threw it, got another Predator, killed one with it, and then made a few more weapon kills. Needless to say, everyone was pissed when I came out of absolutely nowhere to win the game.

*sigh*
I don't think I was defeated by an enemy, per say. I was playing as Lilith on Borderlands, and I had the Phoenix power (Where when you kill someone, you are surrounded with fire for 5-10 seconds), so when I killed someone I ran over to loot their body. The body was placed right next to a Jakob's gas tanker, which then exploded right in front of me.

oh the shame... on ragnarok online, i had a lord knight in the hidden forest, and i died from a lunatic.
scratch that, death by ant egg, still on ragnarok,
scratch that, death my shroom...
scratch that, death by green plant... still on ragnarok... if anyone plays it, they know how hard it is to do that...

how the fuck did you get a 400 ton aircraft out of a handheld package.
then how the fuck did you run out of ammo?

I think I actually WAS bisected by gnolls at one point in BG....

I was playing Fallout 3, and was trekking across the Wastes to start The Pitt. Around halfway, I'm set upon by a deathclaw. I was level 3 at the time. It knocked me to one bead of health. I panicked and ran away. I thought I'd make it to Megaton, when, the horror, I tripped on a god-damned mole rat. He came out of nowhere. It was like stubbing my toe on an ewok.

 

[Sion_Barzahd]

crushed to death by my own supply crate. First time i'd ever used one. i knew to not stand by the smoke so i moved a bit away from it, apparently the airdrop did the same.

I was very much 2D by that point.

I take it you've never played MW2 before. The Care Package is a crate that gives you a random reward. This time, it was an AC130. I called it in through the package (Through some sort of radio, I presume), and while I hid on the ground, I got to control the gunner of it. Of course, having a gigantic gunship forever would be game-breaking. There's a time limit on it rather than an ammo limit.

I was playing burnout 3 today, and I was in a 1 on 1 race against a very tough opponent. I had managed to battle my way in front of him and stay ahead for the majority of the race, and I was so close to the end that I could see the finish line. Right before I crossed he slammed into me from behind, and I went headfirst into a bus, while my opponent crossed the finish line. Ragequit.

I was playing Fallout 3, and I had to go to the Arlington Library. I had no locations discovered anywhere near, so I had to trek there from Megaton. About nine-tenths of the way there, I encountered some Raiders. Fortunately, they were right next to a metric buttload of cars. Three large explosions later, I emerged victorious and with a tiny bit of health. Out of nowhere (perception was 1) I was sniped in the face, and I died. As the camera rolled around with my dead body, I saw it was a bloatfly.

And I had forgotten to save.

I'm so sorry for you.

Albino Radscorpion...

I was hauling ass running away from a Deathclaw in Fallout 3 (on the hardest difficulty) when it suddenly flew up into the air. I was pretty happy, then out of nowhere an Albino Radscorpion appeared and proceeded raped me...

Now that is one of the funniest images ever

 

[LordGarbageMan]

Well..... a guy kind of threw a knife into my face while I was attempting to kill him. And then I had to watch it as the ending kill cam, so that was ridiculing. Edit: Also I was too afraid to even go near anything kwama in morrowind. I would run all the way to a town just to get the guards to kill the six foragers chasing me.
