I did some thinking for a long time and came up with something.

We all know about Thor, norse god of thunder, right?

And we all know about his hammer, MJOLNIR (also the name given to Spartan battle armor) right?

Well, I came up with a theory about the relations between Thor,s hammer, and the gravity hammer.

Now, in original Norse Mythology, MJOLNIR (Thor,s Hammer) allows Thor to control thunder and level mountains with a single blow. As well, even the "mightiest of men" could not wield Thor,s hammer.

Well, the Gravity Hammer of Halo 2 (or some earlier Forerunner gravity hammer of equal proportions, assuming there was one) match,s up with all this information.

Its big and heavy (hence why only Spartan's could pick it up), so an average human (or a very strong human) could not pick it up.

If you don't know what you are listening for, you could mistake the gravity hammer going off, with thunder (hence Norse mythology stating that it allowed Thor to control thunder).

As well, the strike of a gravity hammer is powerful, and in theory (coupled with more powerful Gravity chambers and Anti Grav cores) could have the power to level hills and reduce enormous rocks to rubble.

So, tell me what you think.

Criticize.

Troll. I dont care.

Just give an honest opinion, or tell me that I have the right idea, but am still wrong.

I love this theory as well as Norse mythology!

The only thing I'm looking at as "off" would be the height of the hammer. Thor's hammer had a smaller hilt giving him the ability to wield the powerful weapon with one hand if he chose to.

The grav hammer's hilt is so long that it has to be used with two hands.

Just a visual thing that I noticed. Nothing big at all.
