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]]''.


The '''Getting Inside Destroyed Vehicles''' [[glitch]] only works on ''[[Halo 3]]''.
==Walkthrough==
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.


==Tutorial==
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.
To do the '''Get Inside Destroyed Vehicles Glitch''', you will need a [[Spartan Laser]]. First, approach a [[vehicle]] (preferably a [[Banshee]]) 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: you cannot drive the vehicle.


Another way to get inside a destroyed vehicle is to have someone damage the vehicle with a [[Fragmentation 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. First, get your friend to stand next to a vehicle. Next, have them  get in, stick them and [[Boarding|board]] their vehicle. If done right, the vehicle should be damaged or destroyed and you should be able to ride it. But make sure you do this fast, or it '''WILL NOT''' work. Two players, an [[Overshield]], and a [[Missile Pod]] will work just as well. The first thing to do is that the first player stand next to a vehicle with an [[Overshield]], and have the second player with a [[Missile Pod]] fire at the vehicle while the first player gets in. If timed right you will be in the driver's seat.
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).


Another way to do this was found in [[Matchmaking]]. First you board a hornet on [[Avalanche (Level)]] and at the same time an allie kills the hornet with another weapon.Preferably a [[Spartan Laser]] or a [[Rocket Launcher]].You will then land on the ground in the destroyed Hornet,(This may also confuse enemy players,as the destroyed wreckage is an enemy, and giving you enough time to get out and surprise them.Note that you do not need any custom powerup just good timing.
== Tactical advantage ==
===Note===
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.
This has been confirmed to work with the [[Banshee]], [[Hornet]], [[Brute Chopper]] and [[Ghost]]. You will eventually respawn due to wreckage automatically being removed from the map after a certain amount of time. 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. Also, this glitch works on all vehicles that you board, force out the driver, and take their place ([[Brute Chopper]], [[Hornet]], [[Ghost]], [[Banshee]]), and the [[Warthog]]'s gunner seat whilst destroyed. The glitch should work on all maps, since maps themselves do not play a part on whether the glitch will work or not; some just happen not to have certain vehicles.

A player demonstrating the Destroyed Vehicles Glitch in Halo 3.
The glitch being utilized on Avalanche.

The destroyed vehicles glitch is a 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.

Walkthrough[edit]

Start by finding a vehicle (preferably a Banshee) and obtaining a 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 Fragmentation Grenade or two. The vehicle should be damaged enough that it will explode if one of its passengers has been stuck with a 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 board the vehicle.

A variation on that method uses an Overshield and a Missile Pod. Person A would have the Overshield, and Person B would fire upon them while they enter (instead of throwing a grenade).

Tactical advantage[edit]

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[edit]

This has been confirmed to work with the Banshee, Hornet, Mongoose, Warthog, Brute Chopper and 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.
