As of now, this device has only been featured in the Halo 3 Multiplayer maps [[Valhalla]], [[Guardian (Level)|Guardian]], [[Narrows]], and [[Avalanche]], but similar devices (these are called [[Grav Lift|Grav lifts]]) can be found on [[Guardian (Level)|Guardian]] and [[Epitaph]], as well as a placeable object via the Forge in almost any other multiplayer. The [[Halo 2]] Multiplayer Maps [[Desolation]], [[Lockout]], [[Ascension]], [[Gemini]], and [[Colossus]] also have [[Grav Lift|Grav Lifts]]. [[Ivory Tower]], [[Headlong]] and [[Foundation]] also have features that produce the same effect, but these are called 'air vents'. Most people do however still refer to them as grav lifts, probably because in the midst of battle you don't have the time to highlight the difference between the two of them. Another name used by few people is jumps.

*A [[Trip Mine]] placed in a Man Cannon could be a devastating tool, as players would not notice what they are stepping on in the heat of battle and you could just get one or more easy kills.

*In the Red vs Blue Halo 3 Beta video, the man cannon was jokingly called the "Homo Sapien Propulsifier"

*You can create a crude man cannon on almost any map on forge by spawning a weapon holder and a place able grav lift as the lift will be held like a weapon in the holder at a sideways angle although it will give you no upwards lift like other man cannons and will have less power. The floating objects glitch may be used to tilt the lift at any angle to give you the upwards momentum.
