Send Drake launching up very high onto roofs, or flying out-of-bounds in Uncharted. This technique also works as a long jump (not show in this vid).

I was pleasantly surprised to find out that this game has not yet been broken, considering how old it is I was sure it had been smashed by now.

NOTE: This may also be possible in the other Uncharted games, since the mechanics are very similar, another thing that needs to be tested.

Points of Interest:
1. It's possible to send Drake flying up very high and across in any direction in this game.

2. This is thanks to a type of breakout that happens when you roll on most angled surfaces, followed by doing a VERY QUICK ' inspect' action. So (O, L2). It doesn't matter what weapon is armed.

3. I only just came up with this, so I'm still figuring out all the ins-and-outs of the glitch, I've yet to try to see what happens if you do other certain actions either during or at the end of a 'sky launch'. Jumping, shooting, grenade throw, rolls etc.

I also suspect that it's possible to launch up into the air infinitely.

4. I call it a 'Sky Launch', but it's more correct to call it an 'upwards fall', because Drake is actually "falling" towards the sky (while upright).

5. This glitch is possible (mainly) thanks to a very small upwards animation that Drake does when on certain angled collisions (he goes up just a little bit, with arms flailing, before falling). You can then "keep" this upwards momentum by suddenly interrupting it by going into 'inspect' mode.

By doing this, the upwards momentum won't stop (on it's own), allowing extremely high and quick "upwards-falls" (There's more to it than just that (another breakout fe), but -- as I mentioned -- I'm still figuring it all out.

Looking forward to finding out what else is possible.
