The '''Nuclear Bomb Glitch''' is a sub[[glitch]] of ''[[Halo 3]]''<NOWIKI/>'s [[Halo 3's Arm Glitch|Arm Glitch]]. It causes extremely powerful explosions to occur. It only works in [[Forge]]. | |||

Start by performing the [[Halo 3's Arm | <!-- The <nowiki/> prevents a formatting glitch. Stop removing it. --> | ||
Start by performing the [[Halo 3's Arm Glitch|Arm Glitch]] with a [[Gravity Hammer]]. One player (''Person A'') must be in [[Forge|Edit Mode]], with the other player (''Person B'') in Player Mode; both players must attempt to grab a Gravity Hammer at the same time. | |||
At this point, ''Person A'' should hold '''RT''' and rotate the Gravity Hammer until ''Person B''<nowiki/>'s arms disappear, at which point ''B'' may begin to hover for a moment. Viewing the Film frame-by-frame in [[Theater]] reveals what actually happens: first, ''Person B''<nowiki/>'s character's arms bend and rotate erratically, sometimes passing through their body. Next, the hands expand to huge size. Immediately following that, the surrounding area is engulfed in a massive white light. | At this point, ''Person A'' should hold '''RT''' and rotate the Gravity Hammer until ''Person B''<nowiki/>'s arms disappear, at which point ''B'' may begin to hover for a moment.<ref name="tut2">[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DhNydHB9X6U '''YouTube:''' Nuclear Bomb Glitch Part 2: The Blast]</ref> Viewing the Film frame-by-frame in [[Theater]] reveals what actually happens:<ref name="tut1">[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cJ5ILZ3unjU '''YouTube:''' Halo 3 Nuclear Bomb Glitch part 1 of 2: The Gorilla Hands]</ref> first, ''Person B''<nowiki/>'s character's arms bend and rotate erratically, sometimes passing through their body.

While all of the above happens, the glitch will inflict massive damage upon any other players in the level; on at least one occasion, it has almost instantly killed a player on the opposite side of the map. | While all of the above happens, the glitch will inflict massive damage upon any other players in the level; on at least one occasion, it has almost instantly killed a player on the opposite side of the map.<ref name="tut2" /> | ||
At this point, the glitch has been activated. If the glitched player (''Person B'') then swings the Gravity Hammer (by pressing '''RT''') right as a grenade is thrown by another player, then ''Person B'' will deflect the grenade, while also amplifying its power to such an extent that the explosion briefly engulfs the entire map. The glitch will also cause ''Person B'' to be able to run through the air. | At this point, the glitch has been activated.
