Hey, Im new to these forums and I think I have accidently found a really easy way of doing the Car Juggler achievement. I was cruising around on Crackdown the other day when I saw a skip. I put the skip in the middle of the road, picked up a car and dropped it inside. I then threw a grenade into the skip, it blew up and the 'Achievement Unlocked' icon immediatly popped up in the middle of the screen. I had somehow achieved the Car Juggler achievement! I think maybe because the skip stopped the car from hitting the floor, the achievement was unlocked, but I am completely clueless as to why it was unlocked so quickly after the explosion.

Im not sure if this has been posted before (feel free to delete this if it has been), but it is certainly alot easier than what is described in the guide. I think the car has to be small, because I tried the trick again with a larger car and the car wouldnt fit into the skip. I think the car I used was the really small and shitty car that looks like the old Nissan Micra.

I dont know if this was just a random one off glitch that happened with me, so all feedback is welcome.

Looks like you might have found something here...but what is a "skip"?

Skips are the big metal (yellow) things that garbage go in. They're all over the place.

If this doesn't work for you then you could try what I did and that was to drive one of these small cars up the building that contains the elevator and then drive it up a few sets of stairs until you reach the outside ledge facing the square, throw it up in the air and hit it a few times then it should unlock for you...I have had other people try this and it works!

I just drove a small car up into the mountain area and got up onto a peak with a supply point, picked up the car and went to the edge of the cliff, jumped into the air and threw the car, then fired a few of the guided missiles at the car and unlocked it, no problem.

I went to Cowell's (?) location in Shai Gen ended up right at the top where you have to fight him, threw the car up in the air, hit it with a firefly and got the achievment.

I just stood on the pavement in the middle of Los Meurtos, threw a small car straight up in the air with maxed out strength then shot at it with a Firefly with maxed out explosives and watched it continue to go up in the air until I ran out of ammo. (That was about 8 sentences crammed into one) I guarantee you will feel better doing it this way.

I got the achievement by luck, throwing grenades at some Shai Gen enemies, I somehow managed to launch a car straight up in the air, and got the achievement just before it hit the ground. My explosive skill was only 3 star at the time as well, was pretty surprised I got it so easily.

using small cars is what makes this so easy. you can do it without throwing the car if you use a small enough one. just shoot it repetedly.
