Randall Glass is the first person who published the Warthog jump on the Internet. His work greatly inspired Red vs Blue, and he was given a role as the Blue Commander in the first season of the show.
Warthog Jump
Glass created a video called "Warthog Jump" that was the first documented instance of the Warthog Launching. In the video Glass dies from the launches, but the Warthog Launch has since been improved and is used for most major campaign launching in Halo: Combat Evolved.
