How many penalties can you name, should you fail?

I'll start.

Drowning
Losing money
Dodging an arrow, explosion or gun shot
Being buried

I sometimes take a "negative reinforcement" approach in that escaping removes a noxious stimulus (electric shock).
Those who don't believe in magic will never find it.

Being accused of being as bad as me!

Falling to a flaming death...

Having to sit through 2 episodes of Glee (that should be blocked by the Café filters as being offensive!) ......back to back ......or worse 3 episodes on repeat.

Getting pinched by a hoard of little rug rats.

I should just go through a list of past injuries, and potential ones.

If a penalty is supposed to produce change of behaviour, death doesn't do that. One cannot learn from their own death, only someone else’s.

In that case .......


the death of another person ....... I don't know .... say a couple of absent "friends" ...... of course one may not get out in time to prevent their death on purpose ..... oh darn it!

No in all seriousness ....... the destruction of ones property or a spectator's property. I think there is a clip on the convention DVD of just that with a spectator's watch and a blender? But to me that is a little too close to magic. What does anyone else think?

Regards

Dave

There are a few escape artists in this list.
Mr Burrus gets a mention.
