Anyone ever tried this? this is probably the funnest thing about Halo, seeing a warthog flying hundreds of feet into the air is very amusing, and even more so when you can get it to land on you. :)
Any tips would be great.

This is called: "Hog Launching" around here. It takes patience, but is actually LOTS of fun to do...

Its a long process to explain, but basically, you get a stockpile of grenades under a hog (think around 7 or 8 for optimal performance) and use a chain reaction (1 detonation triggers a string of detonations to any nades in the vicinity) to blow your hog sky-high.

There are variants, one of which include exploiting a glitch in the game that renders you invincible for a split-second while entering the hog. This allows the more skilled player to land on the top of certain maps, like the mountains of SC.

Google search it for more info. Better yet, go to halo.bungie.org and search for "Hog Launching"
