Current fortress: only one death so far: I was mining out some ice in a frozen brook, and mined out a tile that was adjacent to an unfrozen (underground) tile, causing the water to flow into the tile the miner was standing in, which instantly froze and killed him.

Previous fortress:
Miner carving a load of ramps managed to cause a cave-in killing him.
Accident involving hatch covers over ramps, resulting in one dwarf being killed by a beer barrel crushing his neck, one child being crippled by chicory breaking his spine, and several dwarves being badly wounded by seeds.

Fortress before that: werellama chain reaction.

Engraved on the floor is a well-designed image of a kobold and a carp.  The kobold is making a plaintive gesture.  The carp is laughing.

Mass suicide. 
Every now and again, all the dwarfs in my fort would go drown themselves in a failed aquifer pierce out on the edge of the map. I had a weregiraffe doctor walled into the old defunct hospital, and I could wait in frustration until the next migrant wave. Who would, one by one, or all together, head out to the failed aquifer pierce and drown themselves. Sometimes they would report the dead from the last lot of drownings, sometimes they wouldn't, and some dead were simply "missing for a week". It was incredibly frustrating. I eventually had to start a new fort somewhere else.

In my fort, the hottest new trend in death causes is "struck down by a zombie."  Perhaps my dwarves are fans of The Walking Dead.

Six by king cobra corpse and one by dog corpse, I think. First serious attempt to embark into an evil region, and the only sensible available one was Terrifying.

Whoops.

Sleeping with a vampire.

My second turn's unnoficial goal was to turn everyone into vampires, and it backfired so bad, I ended up making the fort a more efficient, safer and friendlier place.

I am intrigued about the possibility of infecting a husband/wife, and then watching them drain their babies and spouse

Getting victimized by a fell mood and getting turned into damned TROUSERS! Really, he couldn't have at least been made into something useful like a hammer or something?

She fell 20 z levels into my reservoir, breaking most of her bones and dying of drowning before blood loss, surrounded by the smashed corpses of others who had fallen.
