Well...
1. I've done it loads of times. I do it once or twice everytime I play the level.
2. I download Halo trick videos. One has this on.
3. Its not impossible, if you learn to grenade jump then its a piece of cake

All you have to do is...
* Make sure you're relatively safe
* Open the door
* Walk back a little
* Throw a frag grenade so it lands right on the edge of the gap
* Time your run and jump so the explosion powers you across the gap. You also need to aim our jump towards the closest spot on the other side.

It would've been great if there was an alternate level path to Keye's once over ther. Instead of falling and having to get in, you have to make your way through the ship.

Nothing special over there though, just some Covenant and Flood fighting.

dammit, the internet was off for the wekend, so i couldn't see the 'all the doors are locked' part. So, after about 1hour of trying to get onto both the medikit bit andthe other side, i managed, only to my horror to discover that i couldn't progress anymore. Anyways thx for the info guys.

Dunno about the Keyes bit...

If you could work your way through the ship, you would probably save Keyes and that means There would not be The Maw level and that level is the best :D

Yeah, I have a video (called 'Mission Impossible') where some guy jumps that gap. He grabs the Overshield, throws a Plasma Grenade and then jumps off the edge. He lands at the Active camo and picks that up.

I bet its done with 400% health though...

i'd like to try the boarding action gap this way:
throw a plasma grenade next to the overshield, then pick up the overshield, throw a frag grenade, then jump/walk backwards off the edge and shoot the rocket launcher

it'd probably take a few tries...but that should be enough of an explosion to get you across
