John-117 in Cryo is an easter egg in Halo: Reach's campaign level The Pillar of Autumn.
By holding the right analog stick to the right in the part of the cinematic where Captain Keyes' Pelican lands in a hangar bay in the Pillar of Autumn, one can see John-117 lying in a cryo-chamber in the hangar.[1]
Trivia
- The easter egg is similar to the Buck and Monkeyman egg in the Halo 3: ODST epilogue; with the only difference being that the player needs to push the right analog stick to the left in order to see the egg in ODST.
- It appears that the Master Chief has a combat knife. This is because his model is simply a normal Spartan with the right combination of armor components, unlike the members of Noble Team.
- Only the helmet, chest, and left shoulder pauldron are visible. Though the Master Chief's wrist and leg attachments are known (both are default), it's still unknown what knee guards he wears. Unless Bungie confirms it, hacking will be necessary.
- The cryo-chamber present John is in is the same design as the one in Halo 3 rather than the design from Halo: Combat Evolved.

Placing him in the "hushed casket" was the one way we felt his presence in Reach would be appropriate. Anything greater than that would have diminished the importance of Noble team, including yourself as the last remaining Spartan willing to stay behind and fight on Reach to the very bitter end."
