Seeing that I haven't found a thread for this, I've decided to create a thread for the sharing of your most strange/creative/insane encounter experiences from a party you were part of or DM'd for.
I'll start with one of my favorites from a MLP 5e campaign were my Character Lucius DeFur (Lucy) was in a sort of Cyberworld Demension there was a mercenary wearing a sort of gauntlet claw, Lucy loved it so much he want to steal it. The DM asked me if I was sure seeing as the person was wearing it. Lucy was sure so I rolled and nat 20!! So somehow Lucy managed to steal the gauntlet's software and blueprints and was able to make one with the help of an NPC techy.
Most recently I was DMing the very (VERY) beginning of The Mines of Phandellver adventure to give some new players a way to learn the game and I had 2 guys that were SO bored that they decided to steal the cart after the 1st encounter when 3 characters who knew goblin were interrogating. They somehow managed to pass like 7 consecutive stealth checks each and the others spent an hour IRL to re-siege the cart because they REALLY wanted to play it all out instead of using narration. The Cleric spent the last ten minutes of that time period praying for a speed blessing because he was slow enough he couldn't catch up to the cart no matter what. Long story short (after multiple religion checks including two natural 1s in a row) that character is now no longer allowed to pray to Dionysus (the cleric's backstory and pantheon were Greek)

Do not expect people to be smart, but do not allow them to be stupid. If there is one thing I have learned it is this.
During one of the early sessions for my Tuesday game..the Barbarian picked up my gnome fighter and used him as basically a projectile weapon..because she was raging and kind of a dick...and he might have slapper her on the ass..totally on accident.

I have a thread over in General that this would fit perfectly under.

A dwarf with a canoe on his back? What could go wrong?
During one of the early sessions for my Tuesday game..the Barbarian picked up my gnome fighter and used him as basically a projectile weapon..because she was raging and kind of a dick...and he might have slapper her on the ass..totally on accident.
I feel ashamed..I threw a dwarf..but he asked my character too do it!
