The '''[[Warthog]] Jump''' was first recorded by [[Randall Glass]]. It is commonly done in [[The Silent Cartographer]], where you launch a [[Warthog]] into the air using [[grenades]] and/or rockets. In ''[[Halo 2]]'', the [[Halo 2 skulls|Sputnik Skull]] can be used to make Warthogs fly farther than they would normally. In ''[[Halo 3]]'', through use of the [[Forge]] the player can put a Warthog atop a pile of [[fusion coils]]; though this normally destroys the warthog if vehicles are toggled to be destructible, the wreck may fly a good distance.

*Q: How did you get all of those grenades?
*Q: How did you get all of those grenades?
*A: You have to shoot some soldiers. Shoot 5 of your guys (dropping about 8 grenades total). They usually drop 0-2 grenades when they die. Here's a hint, trigger a Checkpoint before you do anything (like shooting your guys). Revert to Saved if they drop nothing. Other people have discovered an easy method using CO-OP mode. You and your buddy carry four grenades at the beginning of the level. [[Melee]] each other from behind and you'll drop them.

''Note'': Only dropped grenades will have a chain reaction. The ones you find near the flipped Warthog won't go off. Also, [[multi-player]] grenades won't work either.

== Warthog Jumping on Zanzibar==
On the beach on Zanzibar there is a ramp-like piece of debris (the ideal game type to try this is on [[Assault]], although it will work on any game type), take the bomb and crouch walk at the bottom of the debris while looking just ahead of your own feet, this may take a few tries. Another player will need to drive the Hog back a bit and then gain a lot of speed in order to ram you (the bomb carrier). You will be propelled the length of Zanzibar and land on the roof of the base. Remain crouching or you will show up on the motion detector. Be aware of the fan: it is quite easy to smack into it and lose the advantage.

If you make it onto the roof, wait for your team to covertly join you. From there you have the element of surprise and should be able to gain the upper hand as there is actually a hole in the roof through which your bomb carrier can enter the base through.

This can also be done with [[Capture the Flag]] or Assault on [[Coagulation]] using the rocks where the [[M90 Assault Shotgun|Shotgun]] can be found. This is less risky if the person in the [[Warthog]] has the highest level of handicap on as they will do less damage to the player being rammed.

==Warthog jumping in Halo 3==
== Cool thing to try on Halo 3 ==
On [[Forge]] in ''Halo 3'', [[Sandtrap]]: Make a bed of [[Plasma battery|plasma batteries]] (2 by 4) and place a Warthog on top of it. Build a wall of [[fusion coil]]s or [[power core]]s in front of the Warthog and repeat the process behind it. Do this as high as the Warthog itself. It is your choice whether you put walls on the sides or not.

It is your choice whether you put walls on the sides or not.
 
Spawn a sniper or beam rifle and line up either at the front or the back of the warthog. Aim your reticule at the base of the wall and in the middle. Zoom back out and watch the fireworks. A useful trick for this is to the hold the right thumb stick down while aiming, and then release it and you'll automatically zoom out and be aiming where you need to.
 
*Build your own ramp map or infection map and play it with loads of people!!!
*Play loads of double EXP games and get promoted!!!!!


Spawn some [[Overshield]]s next to the driver seat of the Warthog, and go into player mode. Hurl a grenade at the ground next to the explosives, then run into the Overshields and get into the Warthog. You will be launched into the air while doing while driving the Warthog, and usually be killed when it ends its descent, but it is possible to survive. This can also be performed on other vehicles such as the [[Mongoose]], [[Barukaza Workshop Chopper]], {{Pattern|Karo'etba|Ghost}}, or Prowler.
