Half-Life 2: Episode One Hints
The Damage-Free Way
1 of 5: Go down to the far end of the ledge you're on and look straight down.
2 of 5: There's a very rickety-looking metal platform just below you that you could easily drop onto without taking any damage.
3 of 5: Unfortunately, it will break off and fall into the abyss soon after you land on it.
4 of 5: So the thing to do is quickly jump or drop from it to the top of the large down-sloping ramp-like machine that you can see just ahead and to the right.
5 of 5: Now you can go down the machine's "ramp" to reach the lower floor safely.
