      Can you expand more on that, please?

      The more I read the text the less sense it makes to and not having watched the described scene, I’m at a loss.

        If you want it expanded upon, Sir Isaac Newton did so in his Principia Mathematica Philosophiae Naturalis, written in 1686. Specifically, whenever one object exerts a force on another object, the second object exerts an equal and opposite on the first.

        I’m sure there’s better educated people than me that could point out other laws of physics that Halo breaks with the grappling hook, but that’s the one that comes to mind for me. These aren’t things you can just develop more advanced tech for and they can be overcome. These are the fundamental rules that govern the entire universe. The only place we see them bend a little is places like inside the cores of neutron stars. In other words, if you were around somebody that was getting around them using some piece of tech, it would probably end up being a very short and very bad day for you.
