Well, everybody has such moments when a mission goes in unintended direction and you lose some little green guys. My own list includes such occasions as: rapid unplanned disassembly destroying chutes, landing on a mountain (and rolling down), various chute failures, losing control of aircraft, landing aircraft at tricky survey locations, landing aircraft too fast, staging issues (checklist, damnit!), perfectly aligned rendezvous at like 50 m/s (well, there was no relative velocity indicator in 0.14), too low orbit (update the minimum safe altitude...), life support failure, Tylo (just Tylo), Kraken attacks, experiments going wrong, driving too fast on the Mun, pressing wrong button, trying to do commentary during a landing... Probably most people here can make a similar list. But what was your most unusual case of killing Kerbals? I once stumbled upon some video on Youtube. It was KSP 0.15 or something around that. The player sent a craft equipped with solar-powered life support system on escape trajectory out of the solar system... Suddenly, the life support started running out of power to support 3 crew members. So they started turning blue and suffocating. One by one... My involvement? Uh... I made those solar panels. Never thought of killing someone else's crew by implementing inverse square law.
