I once one-shotted the final boss of a Con one-shot demo with a full wineskin. Oh, I guess the eletric field trap protecting him helped a bit, I suppose. 
Just yesterday, we had a PC take out a random thug with a grappling hook, in retaliation for a critical hit (we use a critical hit chart, and this one knocked out a ton of teeth and dropped her Comliness by 1).

Possibly a Idiot.
A goat.
To be fair, the other guy was using them as nunchaku, and my character was just retaliating with the only resource on hand.

A small outbuilding. (A one-shot using the Four-Color to Fantasy rules.)

Several years ago, in a campaign where we were all playing Norse style giants, the DM was using a critical fumble table and I rolled weapon breakage while fighting a squad of drow slavers. Bereft of a weapon, my giant (Grym) cast about and I asked the DM if I could grab one of the drow soldiers. Several successful checks later, Grym was wielding a drow soldier.
Swinging his improvised club at a drow priestess, I once again fumbled and rolled weapon breakage. The DM interpreted this as Grym having clumsily smashed his drow in half.

DM'd a game where an immovable rod was used by a character against dive bombing dragon. It wasn't pretty for the dragon.
But did lead to a new magic weapon being developed. Immovable Long Spears.

A PC in my current game is a caster based around intimidate and fear. After a particularly long dungeon that left his spells drained, he took to using a wine bottle they had found, breaking it, and wielding as an improvised weapon just to demoralize enemies and use his draconic presence. It actually worked pretty well.
Back when I had my Warblade samurai character, I made sure to take Insightful Strike and looked forward to doing things like using a teacup from a tea ceremony as a weapon, but the chance never came.
In a non-D&D game that the game master had made up the rules for, we all played monsters working together to exterminate humanity. One of the players had a "sentient catapult" who regularly loaded up with corpses, trees, cows, etc... to use as ammo for launch. He also liked to launch the melee people into close combat, a sort of "assisted charge / dive attack." My character was a gargoyle and allowed him to use the extremely hard (and thus damaging) stone form he took during the day as ammo, as long as he was careful to not fling him high or far enough to risk breaking him.
