Jumping into an air-dropped vehicle ... while it's in mid-air.

[imported_John-Paul]

Metamartian asked yesterday if it was possible to jump out of a jet or heli and enter an air-dropped vehicle while it was still in mid-air. Took me several attempts but yes! The transfer can be done ...

Video of the successful jump.

(The file is 14MB and encoded with Xvid. Sorry if you don't like RapidShare. I'll probably add a couple of mirrors later on but I've tried three other sites already and they all failed).

I'd be very interested to hear from anyone who manages to do it during a proper game. (Not that there would be any point.)

And the point of this would be.......what? Or is it just for giggles and grins?

I love the ending.

Damn.

I tried opening it with Windows Media Player, but it was a no-go. It instead tried to play it like an audio file.

I dont feel like d/l'ing, is it hosted on putfile or even google?

Its encoded with Xvid thats why if you dont have the xvid/divx codecs then it wont play so you can go get them or you can use VLC which plays everything.

Mainly just to see if it could be done!

Metamartian had written: "I have a request. I would like to find out if it is possible to jump out of a jet or heli and enter a 'cartillery' vehicle that has been dropped by the commander while it is still in midair? I want to know wether you can just drive off when it lands or wether you die? Any takers for this challange? A video clip would be nice or maybe Total BF2 can pick this up as a video contest??"

I was curious, too, so I gave it a shot ...

Hmm ... sounds like you're lacking the Xvid codec. You can pick up the latest version HERE.

Just download and install the codec and you should be able to view this and any other video encoded with Xvid.

I don't hate rapidshare, I use them all the time, like I'm using them now: Your IP-address is already downloading a file. You have to wait until it is finished.
