Weirdest Achievements

[oppp7]

On Battlefield Bad Company there's an achievement called "Darwin's Parachute." To get it you need to glide in a parachute for 3 seconds. One catch though: THERE IS NO PARACHUTE. You have to get in a helicopter, fly as high up as you can, jump out, and fall for 3 seconds. It took me a year to find this out, and that was because I checked it on a forum. Another weird one would be Avatar: the Burning Earth. It only has 5 achievements and all of them can be acquired in the first 59 seconds of the game.
Does anyone have any other weird achievements/stories about them?

The one you gat in Fable 2 for kicking a rabbit. All the funnier that PETA named it their game of the year.

Kicking a chicken or shooting a rabbit.

Get your facts right, fool!

Borsht Belt in Team Fortress 2. Yeah, it's pretty standard fare for achievements (kill ten Heavies while wielding the Killing Gloves of Boxing), but the name is so sillyI had to mention it.

 

[Proteus214]

There's one in World of Warcraft for using the emote /hug on every type of small critter in the world.

I still get a kick out of "My Love for You is Like a Truck," awarded for defeating the Berserker in the first Gears of War.

....Now that song's gonna be in my head all day.

The weirdest achievements in my opinion are the ones for earning all the moves in Viking. They give you weird numbers like 12 14 16 and 18 for Gamerscore and I am sorry but i do not have the patience to play it as long as I did so now my Gamerscore is forever condemned to numbers ending in 2 or 7.

I've actually played this, it doesn't stack up to the great story and character development of "This is the Only Level" though.

SPACE PONIES

 

[GuerrillaClock]

The ones in Guitar Hero where you have to fail a song so many times on Easy. I never understood the point of them at all.

And yes, I do have it.

 

[DrDeath3191]

In the Darkness, the one where you have to just watch To Kill A Mockingbird with your girlfriend. I haven't played it, but that just sounds odd.
