**SPOILER**
When you run up the boobytrapped doorway (the one with the giant boulder that comes running at you), it is possible to roll past the boulder on the right side and emerge unscathed!

Lara cn then run around inside while the boulder goes rumbling down and smashes itself into tiny bits... but then as the rumbling ends, the screen goes dim, and Lara just drops lifeless to the ground.

I'm not sure if this is a bug -- I guess it wouldn't have been any good to be trapped behind those 3 metal gates with no way of getting out, anyway.

Here's the proper version. That room's mechanics works as follows :

- once you step in, boulder starts rolling;

- above on the ceiling there are stones about to fall on Lara; if you somehow manage to get past the boulder, the rocks kill you;

- the gates are supposed to close; that's their only script - open/close;

- if you use fly tool to get past the gates, you still die by those rocks falling over you;

- either way, as long as the gates remain OPEN, the room is safe ;)

Try to think of way to force them to remain open. Yeah, cheating of course...

Because thats not the proper way...I know that's not the proper way... but it was worth trying too see if it could be done.
Still, it was just weird seeing Lara drop dead for no good reason... no rocks crushing her, nothing.

Sunbeam:
never saw those rocks you mentioned :)
