I am currently the record holder for most deaths by crit-pipe in one map, with 6.
Discuss below and add your own achievements! Also, feel free to challenge my spot as the world crit-pipe magnet.

It was Goldrush, but was it all on stage 3, or did you get those over the course of the three stages?

It was over the course of the map. I do not believe that any kritzkriegs were involved, although correct me if I'm wrong.
Maybe I should get into the habit of just recording every damn thing I do.

The scene: A logging camp in the Swiss alps, home to a secret stash of Nazi gold. Whatsit sneaks ahead of the raiding party, looking for soft targets. He sees Blasty at the same moment that Blasty sees him. As in a mirror, the two draw their bowstrings and release, sending symmetrical doom hurtling through the air. A moment in graceful flight, then with a snap, the arrows slam into each other! A broken mess of splinters falls to the ground. Both adversaries slink away, knowing how close they came to obliteration.
Embellished somewhat because it's late.
tldr: Arrows can destroy each other if they collide in flight, apparently.

Me: a BLU medic on castle. Literally surrounded by allies, three, probably four of them. A solly and a sniper and I think a pyro as well. Hey, that's a RED scout, he's uncomfortably close - where'd he go? Ah well, I should be CRIT TO THE FACE and dead. Note: this is before any ally fires a shot. =(
I didn't check to see if they killed the scout and wasn't recording at the time. I sure hope he didn't get away.

Heh. That was fun to listen to as it happened. I'm personally fond of ubercharging a sniper twice in the same round and actually accomplishing something with it during that same fight. The sentry may have only been level one, but it was dead afterward, the sniper and I both survived, and we didn't lose our cap point because of the nonsense.

I killed a spy at the same time as he facestabbed me, killing us both. I was a solly and was about to rj, but right as i flicked,jumped and fired, he stabbed giving him the backstab animation. Unfortunately for me, the stab took my face off, and unfortunately for him, my rocket was a crit. Worst face stab ever.

On the first area of goldrush I was at Red's spawn destroying their teleporter entrances when a heavy walked out of spawn. I FaNed him onto the last level 3 entrance (on accident) and it teleported him off then I destroyed it and made my escape.

Wow. My rockets are awesome.
Oh, pneuma, do you mind removing the server information from that video description? I kinda don't want to advertise it.

So, I think this counts. I'm playing arena_granary, and we're up like 5 to 1. The only guy left is a Medic and I'm playing Spy. I duck around a corner, pop out disguised as a Pyro and say, "We got this man, come on!" He proceeds to heal me from their spawn door all the way across the map to our spawn door. I was trying to find teammates, but I couldn't. I'm talking the whole time, so he could see that my bubble was wrong-colored, and that he was the only guy left, but he didn't notice. So I run with him all the way to our side and I yell "Hit it!" as we run in front of the sentry. He pops Kritz and follows me in, only to be blown away. It was hilarious.

So I was playing a 2v2 dustbowl (first stage) shortly after the Spy vs Sniper update, and I'm fooling around with an enemy Sniper, trying to reflect his arrows back at him. I wasn't doing so well, that is until I died... then as I respawn and run out of the left gate, I nearly run right into an arrow. I'm so surprised I twitch, and by chance reflect the arrow back into the tunnels between the 2 points, where it intersects the retreating Sniper's head and pins him to a support beam. Strangely, the kill icon for a reflected arrow headshot is the same as the sniper rifle's headshot.
Later I join a 3v3 warpath and make 2/3rds of the enemy team ragequit by ending a kritzkreig push as soon as it started by reflecting the first crocket fired into the soldier's charged medic. This is less awesome than it sounds when it is taken into consideration how I was ubercharged at the time, and how the two had to go anyways and were just jovially calling their departure a ragequit in light of my achievement.
These 2 events are basically why I started to love pyro- previously I pyro was my least played class by far, but it is now my most played class (by a much wider margin). And I will never use backburner ever.

So I'm a soldier on point A of Gravelpit, my trusty Medic Cheesecakenomnoms at my side. I have a little trouble with a Pyro who rushes us, but kill him after 3 rockets. But Cheese, worrying that I was going to fail, pops his Kritz just as the Pyro explodes. The cap is up, and we start charging to the hallway, me firing random rockets at the door in the hopes that someone is coming. Nope. Hallway's empty.
I have enough for one last rocket, and fire it straight in front of me for no particular reason. Boom! A shower of guts explodes in front of me.
Invisibility never helps pneuma. He always dies anyway. But at least he gets an awesome award.
