Eridium Blight - Pipe Dreaming Challenge

[Ranxerox]

Having just read the Wiki page for this challenge and the elaborate method described to get up on the pipe, I thought I would share with all those interested on a much simpler way to do this thanks to a recent discovery of mine...

The Wiki description of how to actually get up on the pipe once you're at the right location doesn't need to be followed at all. If you'll notice on the approach to the site there is a slag vent right before the pipe support structure, just stop near it and jump out of your vehicle.

Now what I've discovered is that it's possible to use the slag vent in a manner similar to the Three Horns challenge where you use a steam geyser to get on top of the giant pig outside the motel.

So what you need to do is to take a running jump at the slag vent while aiming yourself at the pipe. When you do it right, the vent will easily launch you high into the air. Guide yourself to land on the pipe and you're in business!

I don't know if anyone else has found this use of the vent before but, in the case of this challenge, it's indispensable for getting up there easily.

And if anyone's wondering, it's possible to exploit other vents for the same purpose. I've tried it out in a few places and it worked.

BTW, if someone could take the time to edit the WIki page (and maybe credit me :) ) with this method that would be great!
