How do you launch yourself from a worthog?

I don't mean how do you launch yourself while in a warhog.

Set up the gametype so it's 400% Health and shields, rockets only, infinite grenades and at least the warthog (obviously, lol). Go to BG because it's not as much as a walk from the base. Get in a hog and drive straight into a wall (that is somewhat obtuse or straight). Get out of the driver seat and get in the passenger. Aim for the vortex (if you don't know geometry tems, aim for the line where the ground meets the wall) with the rocket. Now throw a plasma then grenade as fast as you can, then fire the rocket right after the frag. If done right you should fly. Now you can go anywhere, but you should go far.

I didn't mean blowing it up. I meant when one player is driving the warthog and the other player launches him/her self from the warthog while it is still in motion.

I think he's talking about the warthog gunner launch thing where the gunner guy can go fairly high and far by just getting out at the right spot and pressing A at the right time. I can do it and it's pretty cool. It's hard to explain though.

while driving turn the gunner around so it is facing directly BACK and up now quickly press X and you should go very high up and forward. i say try it out in sidewinder only becuase it has less bumps and turns then bg. also:even if your off by this------much it wont work at all or well

bah

Also, if you're up to a real challenge, do this in the driver seat. All you need is a nice rock to slam into sidewise. Get out at the exact right moment, and the rock and hog will squish you, but the hog can't kill you the instant you get out, so you'll go flying quite high.

Also, you can use the whiplash effect to throw yourself from the driver's seat as you crest a hill. this is useful for getitng on top of the bases.

That's what happens when they aren't specific enough Rip. I try helping them out, but it's the the right way, lol. I love using the whiplash effect to get places.

The proper question would of been "How do you launch the gunner from the seat of the warthog?".
