Holyshit, these guys are amazing. They bring a whole new level to HLG.

Some of those were amazing, some were completely pointless and some were not that impressive.

I thought of the French style of Parkour when I saw this, honestly. And the thing I really like is how all the jumps are really fluid, especially as compared to HLG.

ya, some of them seemed kinda pointless, and considering they were all done in a costom game with invinsiblity on, its not that impressive.

That was my thought too. What's the point in knowing them if they actually do you no good in a real game?

They were rather pointless, but they aren't supposed to be useful, they are supposed to be flashy. Like Rube Goldberg machines, sophisticated ways of doing something rather simple.

Exactly. It's all just for show. Like I said, it reminds me of Parkour: It's pointless, but it looks badasss.

Someone agrees with me. YAY!!! But seriously, this is called trick jumping. It uses Halo 3 physics to do extraordinary jumps. Like when you jump onto a ramp and jump again just as you hit the ground, it propels you farther than just a regular jump. It can use equipment like weapons and radar jammers. It also uses the map's geometry. Trick jumping is as simple as brute shot jumps or as complicated as propeling yourself across the map with a rocket launcher. Just to reiterate, it is just for show, not usefulness.

For those unfamiliar with Parkour, I found a wonderful little Wikipedia article (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parkour) regarding it.
