What kind of stupid stuff have your players tried to pull off, only ending in their untimely and well deserved demise?

A team of a Troll Mage, a Troll Muscleman, an Ork Combatant, and a Human Infiltrator are charged with kidnapping and holding some rich dwarven lady. They find out where she lives, which turns out to be a AA zone. High fences, personal bodyguards, lots of Star and other security firms about.

Well the Infiltrator does some Recon on the house (real non-conspicuous sitting on the back of the bike with some binoculars). The Ork drives the Mage to the house too so he can do Astral Recon. The mages gets a good idea of the layout, the occupants, and finds that the lady keeps a Hell Hound as a pet. The other Troll... is home drinking.

Well they watch untill night falls. That's when the Infiltrator, without notifying the rest of his team, decides to break into the place. The Ork and Mage watch him go in, they're still on recon, mouths open at his stupidity and gall.

He prys off the keypad, breaks the code, and starts sneaking in. He nearly gets caught twice outside by making noise. He manages to climb up to the balcony and sneak in through a bathroom window... only to come face to face with the big bad doggy. Well it chews him up something fierce, the guards come running. He jumps out of the window and limps towards his bike. The Ork and Mage just quietly leave.

He makes it too his bike, makes a Bike check to see if he can get it started... and promptly floods the engine. A foot chase and he's gunned down but still alive.

Technically he's not dead; but, he probably wishes he was after what happens next.

Before the run he decided it would be a good idea to take a picture of the Johnson with his Cyber-Eye. Well the cops downloaded his memory and found it (He was the targets ex-husband). Both the PC and the Johnson were charged with attempted murder. They make it so easy. :D
