I'm pretty sure that Chief was on the Forerunner ship that the Covies used to power their city that Truth flew to Earth, saying the BA line "Sir, finishing this fight!".

Why did he fall?

In Halo Uprising he fought inside and failed to kill truth.I think he tried to escape and his only way was to jump.

He's such a badass :)

"How far did he fall?"
"Two kilometers, easy."


He didnt jump from orbit. And he had to bail out of the keyship after an failed assassination of truth and then finding himself waist deep in angry apes.

I am Field Master Avu Med 'Telcam, Servant of the Abiding Truth, and I have many brothers.

A god who creates tools is still a god. It is not for us to impose qualifications upon the divine or presume to guess its intentions.

Uprising was very boring and undetailed. I know an assassination attempt on Truth seems like something important and interesting, but you aren't missing much. And yes, that is why he faceplanted in Africa.
