@catoutofbed well to be fair it was
*1 on perception*
you see a thing and you walk towards it. make a dex save
*i fail that*
you fall off a cliff. make a dex save
*i fail that*
you take [all my hitpoints] falling damage.
*i'm now unconcious*
make a death save
*critical fail, so i take 2 death fails*
okay, you now have one chance left, make a death save
*fail*
your character dies

@catoutofbed so it wasn't an instadeath but it really seems a bit cruel to take a failed roll which tells you whether you see anything or not as "you walk off a cliff into danger"
