How to unlock the High Dive achievement in Assassin's Creed II - Definitive Guide

You can unlock this as early as DNA Sequence 1. In the center of Florence is the Basilica di Santa Maria del Fiore, also known as The Duomo. Standing right next to it is Florence’s highest tower, the Campanile di Giotto. For this achievement, you must climb to the top of this tower, activate the view point and jump from its perch into a cart filled with hay.

To reach the top, you can’t start at the bottom. You must first scale The Duomo and reach the lower roof. From there, stand directly in front of the tower and leap to it. Begin climbing it, and about half way up you must move around to your left to continue to ascend. When you reach an open window, climb in. You will have to continue to climb from the interior. Work your way up to the top, climb on the ledge and stand on the perch to synchronize the view point. To get the achievement, hold down and and press up on the to perform a swan dive into the bale of hay below.

During the first DNA sequence you will eventually need to deliver a letter for your father. Accept the mission and complete it. Once completed you will see your sister Claudio sitting on a bench inside the small courtyard in front of your fathers house. Speak to her and accept her mission. The mission is not needed for the trophy but you get it early on and it will take you right near the building you need to jump from. Complete the mission and beat up Duchio. Then climb the big white building he was standing next to. Once you climb to the top of the building you will see a very tall tower. It looks like it's connected to the building but it's not and you will need to jump over to it. Continue to climb that tower until you reach the top. Synchronize when you're at the top and jump from the wooden plank into the bale of hay below and you will get the trophy. Once again the side mission is not necessary but it was the easiest way to explain where the building was. The following is a video of the trophy. Thanks RoosterTeeth for the video.
