So one day I was on my brand new survival world with my friend and he said "you know what? imma dig straight down cuz i'm bored." So that's what he did. By extreme luck, he landed on the edge of a ravine with TONS of ore, so naturally he dug it all up. On his way back up he was making a path to get back to the surface, when a creeper showed up. It blew up, sending my friend in to the bottom of the ravine. He fell into lava. Then he died.
Lava, I dug into pretty high just as I was starting a branch tunnel. It was on 12, so it must have been a lava fall or something, the problem was, it was only a short distance down the branch, so when I backed up, I ran out of room, and caught fire. Oh well, I think, and run down the main tunnel away from the lava, while selecting my water bucket in the hotbar. I dump my bucket in front of me and put myself out. It didn't occur to me to right click and collect the water, so here I am being pushed back by the water, when suddenly, I'm on fire again. Seems that I had ran down the main too far, and the water stopped before it got to the the lava, but I didn't.
I was on skype (that skype you see there is not my real skype) with a 9 year old (no pedo) and we were on my survival server. He stole my bow & arrows, went on a mountain. When I walked out of our house, he jumped off, did a 360, and killed me.
I drowned trying to get wheat at the bottom of a river, which is just sad. But recently, I lost my bucket of water mining. I was getting ready to leave when I decided to check around to make sure I wasn't missing any diamonds. I looked out over a lava river. Then BOOM, a creeper blows me right into the lava. I manage to swim out, drink a health potion, and am on solid ground. Then, I die from the flames.
Tried to swim across a lava flow thinking I'd make it to the other side before dying
Trusted someone with a bucket of lava above me
Made a hidden door mechanism where a button on a tree would move the ground out of the way revealing a stairway into my base. Unfortunately, a certain someone had their TNT storage cave right next to the mechanism and it activated it.
Hit a hole in the ice, jumped into water, couldn't get back out in time
Corner of a room in my comfy house was too dark and a mob spawned

Playing Minecraft is our chance to escape the reality and mundaneness of everyday life, if only for a little while.
This is way back in the days of Beta, before potions, before enchanting, on one of my first single-player worlds. I'd dug out a huge quarry-style mine to bedrock, but was expanding it with more traditional mining tunnels off to the side. I decided to try out the idea of actually using minecarts for mining. I ran a line of rails down the center of one of my main mining tunnels, then dug tunnels off to either side, coming back to the main tunnel to put ores in the storage cart parked there. I even brought along a bucket of lava, which I would pour out in a sort of niche in one of the walls to dispose of excess cobblestone and dirt and such (I had so much in storage from digging out the main quarry space that I didn't need any more), only keeping the ores which I stuck in the cart. I made more torches and cobblestone tools as needed, and spent the equivalent of several minecraft days down in the mines, until I nearly completely filled up my minecart and my inventory with ores. I was just finishing incinerating the last little bit of excess cobble and gravel and went to click on the minecart to put away the bucket of lava I'd just retrieved from my makeshift incinerator.
And clicked on the cart with the lava bucket still in my hand.
Instead of opening the storage-cart interface, it emptied the lava onto the cart. Incinerating the cart, incinerating the rails under it. And I was so startled I couldn't get away in time and soon I was knee deep in flowing lava. This was before enchanting, so my armor had no fire protection on it, and before potions, so I couldn't quaff a potion of fire protection. And I'd stupidly put the lava bucket in the hotbar slot normally reserved for my bucket of water for lava emergencies. I opened my inventory interface and tried to swap my water bucket back into the hotbar, but when I closed the interface, I accidentally dropped the water bucket...into the lava around me. All I could do was watch helplessly as I died and my inventory full of loot exploded into the lava and burned, alongside the contents of the cart. Nearly a full inventory plus a single chest of diamonds, iron, gold, lapis, coal, and redstone, several days of mining in the days before fortune and silk touch.
It was the only time a death got me so mad I ragequit and deleted the world.
Since then, my most annoying deaths seem to be in enderdragon fights. I have an unfortunately tendency to attract the dragon's attention the moment I enter the End, while still sitting on the obsidian spawning platform and waiting for chunk-loading lag on the server to end so I can actually move. The instant I can move..the dragon knocks me into the void, with whatever nice set of high-enchanted gear I brought to fight the dragon with. This has happened about 3 times on different servers.

I saw a creeper in a cave, i was fearless and attacked it, but when i hit the first hit, i backed off, but then i heard a hiss behind me, i was almost dead, but i was still alive, then i saw a baby zombie behind the creeper that had just exploded, but then.....another hiss, it was the creeper i hit just now!!! It exploded up and i had 1 and a half heart left, just then the baby zombie hit me and i had half a heart and i fell of the cliff because i was just outside a cave in the mountain and lost all my stuff, and when i came back to where i died, my stuff despawned
Literally fell ( get it? fell XD) for the blue stained glass trick where it looks like water from above on a server
When i spawned in a new world I spawned next to a hole that is 17 blocks deep so it will kill me if I fall in. So I didn't know it was there and fell straight in then died..
17 block won't kill ya unless you are already damaged
I use control to sprint instead of double tapping W. I was on top of my mob grinder, putting on some finishing touches, and hit CTRL instead of Shift and went sprinting off the edge 150 blocks to my death. Twice

Ouch.
I have an uncontrollable tendency to fall into ravines, for some reason.

I almost always keep a bucket of water with me when I'm near ravines, so that should i happen to fall in, i can just place the water against the wall or, if timed right, on the ground just before i hit. Which doesn't always work, but it's certainly fun to try
a really badly made spawn on a server could not keep players within the crappy looking mountains (which, btw, were made with cobble, ice, and some ugly things) so I climbed over them and fell out of a hole in the surrounding superflat world. When I respawned, I didn't have my spawn compass thingy or any of that, and the portals were so screwed up that they took you to the nether instead of to the mini-servers, so I was basically stuck in spawn forever.
In a modded survival world, I was in the twilight forest and found a castle. unable to find a legit entrance i made my own using a Diamond drill.... i proceeded to jump right in, jump over a block and into lava, that i knew was there... lost a bunch of ore
I was returning home frome a nearby raid and went to access my slime elevator and a creeper blew up and I went flying into spawn got booted for flying.
When I relogged or that was left was some end stone and a dirt named LEL my Diamonds gone!
I dont think anyone dies in minecraft survival mode, unless you are new to the game or you are really bad at it.
Even in hardcore mod. If you play it safe, you will never have to deal with hostile mobs, and its really easy to keep your hunger bar full, with the amount of food everywhere.
There's plenty of ways to die, even on accident, in minecraft. I myself have never been killed by a mob, but my only 3 deaths are due to falling damage. Besides, even if you're bad with fighting mobs, a lot of their drops are incredibly useful, so completely avoiding them is a very inefficient way to go about the game. As for playing it safe, that's up to the player. Some people do everything as safe as possible. Others dont. To me playing it safe is boring, there's no risk to it, and therefore no fun. I even actively mine straight down (it's okay to cringe, i do almost every time i hear it) but i only carry two or 3 picks with me and some torches when i do, so i don't lose much if i die. Either way, even the most experienced players will die every now and then just due to human error. Dying on survival mode doesn't make you a bad player, it just means you have one more thing to learn from, which is always a good thing
This is my friend's death, thankfully.

This^ Saw some coal. then some redstone under it, and mined them both while on top of them... Lava underneath...
<Click me! It only takes a few seconds!
I mistook a creeper for tall grass.
I also mined downward (only one block) to get some iron I saw, landed on a mob spawner.
Not sure which one's worse.
I was on skype (that skype you see there is not my real skype) with a 9 year old (no pedo) and we were on my survival server. He stole my bow & arrows, went on a mountain. When I walked out of our house, he jumped off, did a 360, and killed me.

In a modded survival world, I was in the twilight forest and found a castle. unable to find a legit entrance i made my own using a Diamond drill.... i proceeded to jump right in, jump over a block and into lava, that i knew was there... lost a bunch of ore
My worst was problem when...
I was returning home frome a nearby raid and went to access my slime elevator and a creeper blew up and I went flying into spawn got booted for flying.
