Forum:Something that's been bugging me about Spartan Ops Episode 8.

I thoroughly re-watched Spartan ops a week ago and i had a thought.

I know its been a year or so, but i'm amazed that no one has brought this up yet or i could be the only one that thinks this... Maybe i'm going insane. The community in general seems to believe that Thorne got hit in the chest with the boulder, but if his chest is encased in power armor, he clearly wouldn't be dazed like he was. That and the fact that the Boulder also clearly makes contact with his face.

So, anyone disagree?

 * At a glance it does look like that but I always thought that the rock hit the upper part of the chest like the small outcropping at the top center of the armor. So, I don't think he got smashed in the face. -ScaleMaster117 (talk) 12:05, 21 July 2014 (EDT)

In the image a majority of the boulder is seen to be above his face though.

 * I rewatched it and I think the boulder shattered on contact with the thingy-majig protruding from his upper armour. Not his face. — subtank   02:05, 22 July 2014 (EDT)

Except that in the image, a majority of the boulder has and is still making contact with his face though.

 * Yea, that's exactly when the boulder shattered. — subtank   09:16, 22 July 2014 (EDT)

From what i can see only a tiny chunk broke of from his chest plate. The rest, in solid form, directly impacted on his face. Literally. I uploaded a clearer version.
