How to unlock the Empty Gesture achievement in Portal 2 - Definitive Guide

Have your partner stand on a Hard-light Bridge that is controlled from your portal that is above water. Tell your partner to do a gesture and when he is in the middle of his gesture shoot a portal somewhere else so that he falls to his death. Achievement unlocked. The first time you encounter hard-light bridges is in Course 3: Hard-Light Surfaces. The first time you can go for this achievement is in Chamber 1.

Maybe people voted negative because it's not your own video solution and you haven't earned the achievement yourself?

I have not gotten because I let my girlfriend play yesterday and watched her get it so dont assume that not having an achievement does not mean I do not know how to get it. And I felt with something as area specific as this I ought to post a video but I don't have any quality recording material so I posted this instead of some eyesore recorded off a phone...

Also I can confirm you do have to drop them from an actual lightbridge. Dropping them into acid from a platform doesn't unlock the achievement.

My friend and I did this in Chapter 3 Chamber 3, we failed to complete the 5 portals achievement and were goofing around and we tried this one.

Any level with a Light Bridge & Water/Acid/Goo whatever it is.

How to -

While they are on the bridge have them gesture above what looks to be water/acid (Valve calls it "Goo) while they are gesturing shoot the bridge to another location and out from under them, they will fall into the "Goo" to their death and you will receive an achievement.

Thats it, hopefully you are nice enough to let your partner get the achievement as well :P.

You can get this trophy right at the beginning of Course 3. It doesn't have to be "goo" neccessarily, as I dropped my partner into water. Just shoot a portal to make a hard-light bridge for them, then have them stand on it and gesture with the . Simply take away the bridge and have them fall for this trophy to pop.

We do it in the third series “ Bridges of Dense Light ”. We place it over the acid (any gap with liquid) on the bridge of light. We begin to make any gesture. At this time, your partner removes the bridge from under you by opening a portal in another place...

Now change places.
