Cryptic: You're not the only to do that. My human warlock right-clicked on the Orc Brewmaster in Ratchet and got an enraged Orc beating on him for his troubles.
My newb moment story:
I was standing on the edge of the Stonewrought Dam in Loch Modan, panning around with the camera to admire the view. I decided to keep walking along the dam. "Be careful not to fall off here - it looks like a long drop."
Naturally I walked straight off the dam. Hello graveyard!
While recovering my body I discovered that it was on the Wetlands side of the dam - so I had to walk off *again* (in ghost mode) to get it. Got my body back halfway down.
Since there wasn't any obvious way to get back to Loch Modan I thought I would just swim downstream and see where I ended up.
Another large waterfall was the answer. (I think it was located by the windows of Grim Batol - the place looked interesting but there didn't seem to be any way in from where I was).
Died again trying to get down the waterfall and found myself in the Wetlands graveyard.
With nothing better to do I headed for Menethil Harbour. Thought I would catch the boat to Kalimdor to expand my horizons.
Except I managed to walk off the back of the boat *again* while admiring the view. By the time I climbed out of the water the boat had left.
Feeling suitably sheepish I headed to more familiar territory before I did myself more damage.
