The '''destroyed vehicles glitch''' is a [[glitches|glitch]] present in ''[[Halo 3]]''. The glitch allows players to enter a destroyed vehicle, though the vehicle cannot be driven. This glitch can also be performed in ''[[Halo: Reach]]''.
This [[glitch]] only works on [[Halo 3]].


==Walkthrough==
To '''get inside destroyed vehicles''', you will need a [[Spartan Laser]]. First, approach a vehicle (preferably a [[Warthog]]) and stand next to it (your body must be touching the vehicle). Press RT (Right Trigger), then B to enter/ride/drive on top. Next, charge the [[Spartan Laser]] and just as you fire, enter the vehicle. Note that you cannot drive the vehicle.
Start by finding a vehicle (preferably a [[Type-26 Ground Support Aircraft|Banshee]]) and obtaining a [[M6 Grindell/Galilean Nonlinear Rifle|Spartan Laser]]. Stand next to the vehicle (your body must be touching the vehicle). Press '''RT''', then '''RB''' to enter the vehicle. Next, charge the Spartan Laser and just as you fire, enter the vehicle.


Another way to get inside a destroyed vehicle is to have someone damage the vehicle with a [[M9 High-Explosive Dual-Purpose Grenade|Fragmentation Grenade]] or two. The vehicle should be damaged enough that it will explode if one of its passengers has been stuck with a [[Anskum-pattern plasma grenade|Plasma Grenade]]. One player (''Person A'') should stand next to the vehicle, while the other (''Person B'') should wait. ''Person A'' should enter the vehicle, and ''Person B'' should proceed to stick them and [[Naval boarding|board]] the vehicle.
Another way to get inside a destroyed vehicle is to have someone damage the vehicle with a [[frag grenade]] or two until it is at the point in which it will blow up if you stick someone with a [[plasma grenade]] who gets in it. Once you stick them, have them get in the vehicle as fast as they can. You would then [[boarding|board]] the vehicle. The resulting plasma grenade explosion will destroy the vehicle. You should be in it.  


A variation on that method uses an [[Overshield]] and a [[LAU-65D/SGM-151|Missile Pod]]. ''Person A'' would have the Overshield, and ''Person B'' would fire upon them while they enter (instead of throwing a grenade).
NOTE: This has only been confirmed to work with the [[Banshee]] and [[Ghost]]. You will eventually respawn due to the game thinking that you committed suicide. It should also be noted that many have destroyed a Banshee on the river in Valhalla and that the person inside will float downstream, creating a raft-like experience.


== Tactical advantage ==
NOTE: This glitch works on all vehicles that you [[hijack]], force out the driver, and take their place ([[Brute Chopper]], [[Hornet]], [[Ghost]] and [[Banshee]]).
Forcing someone else to use this glitch can give you a tactical advantage over a boarder. If you get boarded while driving a Banshee, quickly ram into the nearest object. If you do this correctly, you have a chance of surviving the "accident" while your assailant is trapped inside the remains of the Banshee. Then lob a grenade or melee him to finish the job.

== Additional information ==
This has been confirmed to work with the [[Type-26 Ground Support Aircraft|Banshee]], [[AV-14 Hornet|Hornet]], [[M274 Ultra-Light All-Terrain Vehicle|Mongoose]], [[M12 Force Application Vehicle|Warthog]], [[Barukaza Workshop Chopper|Brute Chopper]] and [[Type-32 Rapid Assault Vehicle|Ghost]]. It does not work with other vehicles because boarding them does not result in the attacker taking a seat.
 
A player riding a destroyed vehicle will occasionally respawn. This happens when the vehicle's wreckage is removed from the map after a certain amount of time.
 
Using this glitch with a Banshee on [[Valhalla]]'s river will create a raft-like experience, with the player floating downstream. If the Banshee is flipped, the player will not be ejected.
 
If done using a Ghost, there is a chance that the Ghost will explode harmlessly, pushing the player out of the wreckage.
