Everyone dies in video games and everyone will always die in video games. The people behind Dark Souls actually highlight how many times you die.
We know that dying can be frustrating, but we also know that dying because of a stupid mistake is even more frustrating. We wanted to resurface some of that rage so we asked the IGN community on Twitter to tell us the dumbest way they've died in a video game.

Let us know in the comments below!Eriq Martin is IGN's Community Manager. He knows a guy that was killed by the slug boss in Dark Souls 2. That's just sad. Talk to him about it on his Twitter.
