jumping off the first bridge on AoTcR onto the pelican. (in order to get to the ground)

ive tried but not managed it. maybe its not possible. i was trying this on my own (not co-op). it would be handy if someone tried it right now co-op (none of my friends are here), cus you can jump off your mates head or one person clears the bridge while the other jumps. i just wanna know if it can be done. even if it cant be done, its fun trying.

i know about the co-op thing were you jump off and re-spawn and stuff, im just looking for other ways down.

Its possible to get onto the floor of the 1st chasm in AotCR in single player. You use the turret on the left when you come through the door. To explain it simply, you blow the turret off the side of the bridge and onto a ledge below. Either jump before it or afterwards, then push it off the side, jump inside. Try to get it to hit a ledge a little further down so you don't die from the fall. Quite hard to do, but I've done it about 7 times about of 100.

I know a way to do it in co-op its pretty simple actually all you have to do is as soon as you come out of the door onto the 1st bridge (do all of this with both players), you jump off the bridge to the left (stay as far left as you can before jumping), then when you land you should have lost maybe a little bit of your shield (could also use the crouch landing trick) if you lost health start again because you will never make the drop without full health, so when you land turnaround so that you are facing where you jumped off the bridge and follow the track right underneath the bridge. then this is where you use one player at a time, if you look down you will see another ledge that is pretty far down covered in snow what i did was jump down with the first player STRAIGHT to the ground so he DIES then wait maybe 2 seconds before jumping with the other player and using the ledge to sort of slide down it if this was done right the player that died earlier now spawned on the snow ledge (if not keep trying it took me a few shots to do before i got it right) then wait for the other player to spawn on the snow ledge because he most likely died on the way down to make the other person spawn. then look directly at the marines below (YES the marines are actually there before the pelican lands, Bungie didnt want you to see that did they) then turn to the left and you'll see a few huge rocks clumped together, walk along the snow ledge until you are close enough to land on those rocks (try land on the highest one for minimal damage) then use the rocks as a slant to like this \ and land on the ground and then you did it!

I have done this fast enough to hop into the pelican that comes down and ride in it until is crashes by the way by doing this you skip a checkpoint which loads the enemies therfore there are no enemies in the stage for the rest of it so if you are finding legendary hard do this trick for the easiest but cheapest way to do the level in legendary.
