I once found some bones from a dwarf at the bottom of a well. The well had been quickly constructed such that I know it was always covered. Did a dwarf jump down a well?

Dwarves fall down the well randomly

I highly suspect it was done purely as a joke.

A really neat joke.  If the well is deep enough I suspect that they will blow apart with limps flying everywhere and smearing the walls, shaft, of the well.  One of my wells was 9 levels deep.

t''s so sad.  It''s as if De Beers as invaded Dwarf Fortress.  I nearly cried when I saw how valued and rare diamonds were in Dwarf Fortress.

This is an awesome bug.

I think I'm going to reproduce this on purpose.

Actually, I'd like to see this as a feature. It's a lot easier to clean out a bucket than a well.
