I recall that while playing Morrowind one day, something very peculiar occured:

I had equiped the Boots of Blinding Speed and was running and jumping about (literally, in game) like any respectable hooligan would after completing the tedious quest that is required to obtain these special boots. So while jumping and running up a small hill on the map, I noticed that for one reason or another, my character was not falling back to the ground, even though the sound for my character's jump continued to play in rapid fire.

To put in simpler words, it seemed as though my character was somehow jumping on air, up, up, and continuing to climb.

Eventually my character scaled the entirity of the mountain, but she did not stop there, oh no. She went higher into the sky (so high that the ground went out of sight for nigh half a minute), until the game glitched out and brought me suddenly back down to the ground in a second's time, where my character promptly died.

And even while dying, the jumping sound continued to play.


'Twas a very strange occurance.


And then I had to redo the quest, god dammit.
