This is something that has bothered me for a while, so maybe someone more versed in Halo canon has the answer. At the end of Halo:CE, you destroy Installation 04 by overloading the reactors on the crashed Pillar of Autumn. After escaping on the fighter, Cortana does a scan and declares there are no human life signs remaining.
Yet, somehow Johnson survives. How? If he was evacuated by Echo 419 at some point, to where?

His fate was ultimately ambiguous, that gave space for the novel to detail his fate and how he ultimately survived.[/quote]But what about [url=http://youtu.be/t2axCHsb8jo?t=31s]this[/url]?[/quote] Obviously it's a non-canonical joke, a reward for those who finished the game on Legendary. To even suggest otherwise is utterly ridiculous... [Edited on 01.07.2013 12:27 PM PST]
