MARINES
1.Throw grenade into group of other marines, killing them all.
2.Jumping into a ghost and running over other Marines and the master cheif.
3.Falling off cliffs
4.Jumping in front of the tank while trying to dodge it.
5. Sarge accidently snipes another marine in the head while trying to kill far away target.

FLOOD
1.Flood with rocket launcher blows up himself and all of his friends while trying to attack master cheif.
2. Flood leap at you, you side step and they fall off cliff.

COVENANT
1. Grunts/jackals panic and run off cliff.
2. Dropship drops ghost on top of grunt.
3. Banshee pilot smashes into all of his friends while trying to run you over.
4. Hunter melees grunt and sends him flying
5. Two elites try to melee you, you sidestep and the first elite misses you and the second elite melees the first elite in the back, KO!
6. SpecOp grunt destroys entire SpecOp team with fuel rod.
7. Elite try to melee you and falls off cliff.
8. Hunter trys to ram you and falls off cliff.
9. Sword elite kills all his friends while trying to get you.
10. Mortar Tank destroys covenant army trying to kill master cheif.
11. Master Cheif sticks elite with plasma grenade on back of elite, instead of runnnig towards MC while yelling AAARG!! He runs away yelling EEEEEEE!!! In high pitched voice.
12. MY FAVORITE: Grunt yells "heads up!", throws plasma grenade on back of jackal in front of him, jackal runs in circles, and explodes killing many elites and the original grunt.
13. A Jackal firing a charged Plasma Pistol shot, but not realising there is another Covenant in front of him. If its a Jackal it shocks him, and he may fire (and lose) his charged shot he has on you, if its an injured Grunts it may kill him, if its an Elite it will take off his shield and if its a Hunter, it will probably do nothing.
14. A Grunt trying to stick a Plasma Grenade on me as I frantically drive around him. It sticks on the head of an Elite nearby. His last few seconds of his life he used to charge at the Grunt responsible and blew him up.

Have any of these happened to you? Are there any I left out?

Yeah, most of these have happened to me, 3 or 4 have never happened to me so far. You forgot:

* A Jackal firing a charged Plasma Pistol shot, but not realising there is another Covenant in front of him. If its a Jackal it shocks him, and he may fire (and lose) his charged shot he has on you, if its an injured Grunts it may kill him, if its an Elite it will take off his shield and if its a Hunter, it will probably do nothing.

* A Grunt trying to stick a Plasma Grenade on me as I frantically drive around him. It sticks on the head of an Elite nearby. His last few seconds of his life he used to charge at the Grunt responsible and blew him up.

1.AI Gets Glitchy and an Elite keeps jumping into a wall, looking like he's humping it
2. Hunters are Firing at your jeep and they hit a banshee and destroy it, then kill each other with misfires.

The only thing u didnt mention that I can think of is on Halo (the level), I was on the bridge at the very beginning and i saw a grunt through a granade at me. It lands right in front of me but an elite starts to chase me. right before it goes off, the elite jumps off the cliff to avoid the granade.

A grunt tried to stick me with a plasma, missed and got an Elite in a Ghost behind me. Ka-Boom!

Also a marine dived to avoid a plasma grenade but threw himself onto it getting stuck to him!

Mine has happened 3 times so far.
Wraith fires energy mortar at me at long range. As it flies through the air it hits a Banshee just as it lines up for an attack run, very funny. I aways think that the Elite in the Wraith must be cursing up a storm in there, you know up till I blow him up of course.
I only left one group of Covies alive once. I was on the Keyes level where the Flood came around the corner just 2 battles from the grav-lift, Elite in the Shade and the two Grunts, I ran in there killed all the Flood and just left. I would have done it again, but that Grunt shot me in the back. They all paid dearly. Wow that was off topic. Just thought it was funny. Goes to show, if someone helps, don't shoot him.
Oh just one more thing, in AotCR, the room just before you get to the base of the Control Room. I saw a group of Jackles shooting at a Grunt, they did kill him. I knew Jackles think they are better then Grunts, but I didn't think they outright shot them. It was just a glitch, but it was neat to see a Covie civil war. Halo 2 might have more on that.

On AOTCR, on the bridges with the large vertical glass panels on both ends: a grunt is up against the glass on one bridge, and you are up against the glass on the adjacent bridge. The grunt throws a plasma grenade at you, and sticks it to himself.

Also, on the same bridges, getting the hunters in the same spot as the beforementioned grunt, moving as close as possible to the other bridge, and the hunters will try to melee you through the glass. If both are there, they will beat the hell out of each other.

I saw a flood infection form jump onto the stump of where a marine flood warriors am was (The warrior form was still alive) and latched onto it and started killing the warrior form, it kept hurting it and the warrior form kept circling trying to shoot at it and then the warrior form eventually died. Another funny thing is when I shot a hunter in the orange spot through a blast door.

In AotCR I threw a grenade at a golden elite on one of the bridges. He did his dive thingy, and jumped off the bridge.

I flood combat form tried to rocket me over a ledge, but blew himself up when he hit the ledge in front of him.

I tried to crush a hunter with a banshee. He jump sideways off a cliff.

I was just playing Keyes on legendary and I managed to beat back a squad of three elites and some grunts, two grunts had survived though and had fled round the corner, I was just closing in getting ready to finsih them off when I heard "down in front" Knowing this is what they say when they throw a grenade I decided to rush out and get them and let the grenade explode harmlessly behind me. However when I turned the corner I saw the Grunt throw the grenade off the wall about a yard away from itself, the grenade landed at his feet and killed the both!
