The description for Commando Pro is no falling damage; does this mean you can fall forever and not die?

If it's anything like what Bungie did in Halo 1/2 --> Halo 3, no. In Halo 1/2 you had typical fall damage, and then in Halo 3 you had no fall damage but if you fell for a certain (long) amount of time, you'd die automatically, which really only came into play with falling off the map / glitch jumps.
Just speculation, though.

There probably aren't any huge drops in any of the maps, with the exception of the instant death drops like falling off that skyscraper level, so it probably has zero fall damage at any height.

That's what I was thinking.
I figured that there would still be death falls, but otherwise you can jump off 3 stories and live ;D

I haven't found any insta-death falls, barring sky scraper, done the 15 foot plus challenge but looking for somewhere to do 30+ and die, would sky scraper count or do you need to hit land?

There are also instadeath falls in Afghan, at the very least. I don't know if you have to hit land or if an instadeath fall will work for the 30+ foot challenge. If you have to hit land, I'd recommend going to Rust. Climb the oil rig in the middle, jump off, profit. As for Commando... it just reduces the damage from all falls to 0. If you jump out of the map, you'll still die, because those falls never did damage in the first place- they just kilt u ded. I've got Commando Pro (quick tip if you're like me and never use your knife- put Commando as your Perk3 on your Riot Shield class and all of your Riot Shield kills will count towards your total, even though you aren't using a knife). I was playing around with it in Quarry and I could not kill myself, no matter how far I dropped (and yes, I did jump down plenty of drops that would kill you without Commando Pro). I'd imagine that Commando Pro will leave you able to survive any fall other than a fall outside of the map.

You do have to hit land for the 30ft+ challenge. I've fallen off the skyscrapers numerous times because I'm a dumbass and still don't have that challenge.

I have seen elevator glitches with Commando Pro, and you can fall forever without taking damage as long as you don't fall into an insta-death zone.

I think you just need to stay alive for 30 ft or more. If you fall of the building you die before falling 30 ft, but the crane is higher.

I am quite sure of this. The other guy must have been mistaken. Maybe he hadn't unlocked it yet or got it earlier.

I know I fell multiple times on both Afghan and Highrise without getting it... and then one time I fell and got it. No idea why.
