Pig achievement

Does anyone have this?

I wasted about two hours riding around trying to get a pig walk out of a trap off a height and when he finally did, he died and I didnt get the achievement. In fact I did this twice before I gave up.  I saw someone on youtube do it where the pig died but they did get the achievement. Is it glitched I wonder?

I did and it took me awhile to figure it out. First, I found a pig down in a hole. Then, I trapped the pig with a 3-block wall all around it. That was the toughest part because the damn thing won't stand still. I dug a deep hole (20 blocks down or so) on one side of the pig's prison. Then I put the saddle on the pig and jumped on. I chopped a hole in the wall so the pig could fall. Then, I hit it with my bare hand to get it to jump into the hole. It killed the pig and gave me the achievement. 

Be careful chopping the wall while on the pig. I killed 3 pigs on accident doing this.

So you killed the pig when he fell as well then? I wonder why I didnt get the achievement then. The little bastards are so annoying, they'll get to the edge of the cliff then sit there for 5 minutes and walk back again. I killed so many on purpose because they just pissed me off.

I guess I'll just try again. I hear there is a saddle near the spawn on seed 888........

easiest way is once you have a pig trapped hop on and have another player let the pig out. p.s. my pig died when i got the cheevo

The key is to hit them with nothing in your hand so they jump off the cliff.

Stupid Question..

Where do I get/craft a saddle?

I have looked through the crafting table and can`t see it anywhere.

Or do I find it?

Finding the saddle was the tough part.  My first two dungeons did not have one.

 

Once I got it here's what I did.

 

Fenced a pig in...Easily one of the better times I have had playing minecraft

 

Once I got a pen around him I kept making it smaller until it was 3x3.

 

put a earth block in one place against the fence outside for jumping into the pen.

 

excavated the rest so the pig was standing on a floating platform five blocks high.

 

My idea was I would smack a fence down and the pig would wander off the edge but that literally took about three tries and as many dead pigs before I lost patience with it.  Finally I just waited for someone to come in and dig a hole under the pig.

I did it twice again over the weekend. trapped the pig, put the saddle on then waited. I got tired of waiting for him to fall off my cliff so I started player 2 and pushed him off. The pig didnt die and both times I didnt get the achievement which leads me to conclude it is glitched for me. I have done it on both peaceful and normal now as well.

The only place I've found saddles is in the chest next to monster spawners.

I must have gotten extremely lucky then. I spawned right next to a dungeon which had a couple saddles and the first pig I got on gave me the achievement. He was right on a cliff just high enough to where when he fell it just hurt him.
