I really wish that Bungie never showed us what was under a grunt's mask...

Then this question need never be asked...

they can smell with their tongues

  • 10.28.2006 4:26 AM PDT

Even if they had noses they wouldn't be able to smell it since they'd have to be breathing the air around them.

They do have noses. It's under their gas masks.

they do have noses, they have to have a methan filled mask, because other that methan, it would suffocate them.

They do not have noses. Have you ever seen the pic with their mask OFF? I see no room for a nose.

Maybe he just had a hairball...

Could have been something other than sniffing.

Hey you saw my sig! :)
Their was a time when this was under a post. Simpler times; no Halo 3 Forum and no search. Simpler times. Happy about search though.

Well he is snarling, so it would be hard to see a nose.

Grunts smell useing their odly shaped fingers.
on a serious note...
how could a grunt smaell though the methane anyway? Methane smalls like a thousand ancient corpses that were used as ancient egyptian portapotties...
that wasn't really a serious note was it?

actually, methane is odorless. and maybe they have smell organs in their mouth. lol, smell organs sounds really stupid. anyways, they could probably smell the jet exhaust from the pelican. the heat would make it rise, into the grunts smell organs .

Ya know what's weird? My biology teacher said that swamps had a lot of methane in them. So when we first met the Flood, and the Grunts were outside, shouldn't he Grunts have been able to survive w/o their tanks?

They can't smell, they have the rebreather tanks on, and why did bungie have the grunt sount like it was smelling? Maybe it was farting? or was that just me???????

maybe he was feeling the vibrations in the air and senced the pelican coming. we really cant understand the anatomy of a grunt very precisly, he could have been smelling, tasting, or using some sense our mind cant fathom.

grunts have small holes for noses that can smell three times better then humans. im just guessing on the three times part.

They have ears. If you listen closely, you can hear the ship coming. The Grunt heard it, as well.
