After 18 hours of Spelunky I still learned something new just from watching you play the tutorial. Looking forward to learning more from the master spelunker himself !

e: Have to comment though, I never really felt that the original served up much in the way of unfair deaths. Don't know if that's a change in the new one or if that's a difference of opinion, but I don't recall ever dying without a mechanical mistake or conscious risk being taken.

I think it's not so much unfair deaths but, as the thread title suggests, Rube Goldberg machine effect that kills you in the most bullshit ways possible. You can get hit by the weakest enemy possible like a snake and end up dead on spikes after flying around the level for a while.
