GTA 5 Online Mythbusters: Episode 1 (Busting 100 Myths!)

[@dukeboy7500]

The "calling Franklin for extra armor" thing used to work, but they patched it a year or so ago. What you did was buy 10 heavy armors and then call him. He'd give you an additional 10 super heavy armors in the backpack stash for a total of 20.

[@Skylar-ir7uh]

Still works for me sometimes it’s random

Myths: -You can boost a cop car into a wall and make it explode and WON'T get a wanted level. -If you honk at a driving npc for long enough they will freak out and start speeding. -If you start a fight with the cops in the tunnel at Mount Gordo, the cop cars will only spawn with the same flow of traffic. Only Noose that repel from choppers will attack you from the opposite side. -You can remove your wanted level by calling Yohan and requesting a nightclubs goods source mission.

[@El_Butcher_666]

nearly half of these myths are only able to be done in either story mode or online, not in both. you should've tested them(the ones that can be done in both) in both.

[@NOTnightowl]

Also some are just flat out wrong. Firefighters do in fact shoot water at you when you piss them off.

5:41 - there is definitely a shark though. Just gotta go out as far as you can and then you get eaten

[@MoinsenLeude]

19:24 Sticky Bombs and Mines will actually stick on NPCs and Players if u throw them at a specific location on their back 23:40 I got them to shoot water at me a few times in the past

[@brandonbrewer21]

Yeah I'm going to say that some of those myths were true... at least at some point in time if Rockstar didn't patch them! I've purchased body armor and got more from Franklin before and I know I've stuck sticky bombs on npc and chased them towards other players for the memes 😂

[@taurielv]

Stickies stick on npcs 100% if they get in croutch position.

[@jiglesmackle4081]

my buddy and i had a war with firemen yesterday. We took their truck and sprayed water at them. And they returned fire/water

APPARENTLY you get 'busted/confirmed' right 60/40% ov the time!

I was gonna say, they are swapped around.

[@HeRocco1]

Myth #62, when you call Franklin for a supply stash for 20 pieces of armor total, used to work. I don't remember when rockstar patched it but it was very helpful for the doomsday heist when it worked.

[@Martyr_Logarius]

How's Matt treating you? Has he fed you? If not, don't worry, I'll be there in a "jiffy"

He won’t feed me

Hey did you know a jiffy Is a actual messument of time

[@neoRen1]

The Heavy Armor Franklin Glitch used to work, but the trick is to buy 10 heavy and call franklin for super heavy's, so you get to hold 20 in total. It's patched now of course.

[@ContinuedOak]

The first 2 confused me…I thought they were confirmed cause it did end up happening…

[@pete_kane]

It looks like he just messed up the first one which should have been confirmed instead of busted.

[@ContinuedOak]

@@pete_kane ahhh, okay thank you, must just been an editing mistake

[@PinoGietermaai]

I did not watch the full video yet but hiding in the bush most definitely works, at least sometimes, as long as you're fully covered. I don't know if this works in GTA online but in story mode it worked for me many times.

Very impressive on that gun range, I've been attempting the tier 2 for the bonus proximity capacity and I have to say it's a good challenge. It doesn't help I'm playing on a lazy boy chair arm rest lol, but its still intense trying to get that 30 second challenge.

For #12, I slowed it down to 1/4 speed and I definitely see the rocket veer up inside the van, but I can't actually confirm if it hit the graphic model or clipped slightly lower, or if the rocket hits an invisible wall in the center.

[@mattebandet]

I'm pretty sure the railgun can go through open windows

[@Killabeezee]

I'm 90% sure there's a clip of a rocket going through a whips windshield and out the side window mid jump, can't remember if it was this game or another tho

[@raymond_rayder]

The police will get into a shoot-out with gang members on Grove Street, but only if they turn up for your wanted level and get out of their cars first. You can then either call Lester to remove wanted level or hide from their sight long enough for the wanted level to wear off, leaving the gang members and police to shoot it out. This usually occurs because you've started a fight with a gang and shot a bunch of them, resulting in a wanted level.

[@stevo1110]

Its absolutely possible to get a sticky bomb to stick to players and peds, you need to throw it at the top half of their back.

[@Al69BfR]

9:28 The 5 seconds rule is more kind of a 4 sec rule. and you have to use a countdown timer to hit the spot. But with this 4 secs on countdown I won more podium vehicles than before I used that. It doesn’t work all the time because you still can get the timing wrong. But imho it raises the chance of winning. If you try every day, than the chances are 7 times higher for winning a specific vehicle.

[@_________________________.___.]

yep it's true, if you count 3-4 seconds it will land really close to the vehicle, or on the vehicle, every time. TGG go that one WRONG!

[@chrisslater9514]

u have to join an invite only lobby or one where no one has spun the wheel yet u can usually tell bc the vehicle will be two to the left. around 4.5 seconds works for me, plus alt f4 before it lands and u can spin again

[@_________________________.___.]

@@chrisslater9514 it doesn't matter the starting position of the wheel. And you probably count fast. In the video it's clearly not close to 5 or 4.5 seconds. It's roughly 3, just like everyone says when I actually google it.

[@Destroyer38866]

Myth for you to try: if you go up beside an npc at a red light and rev your engine, some will decide to race you, you will know it worked if they run the red light and break all traffic laws

[@UnusualPete]

The tram only runs you over if you kill the conductor. I suppose the controls get stuck... It's amazing how most people didn't know about the snacks in the agency's upper floor. 😮 Also, here's a myth: if you shoot the up-n-atomizer through the open/broken windows of a car, the pulse will go through the car and hit whatever is in the other side.

[@user-qp5mb2hl6r]

it was opposite for me, I didn't know there's a free snacks on lower floor I always go to upstairs to get snacks 💀💀

[@UnusualPete]

@@user-qp5mb2hl6r so... It was like me. I didn't know about the ones at the reception until recently.

[@pradyum1851]

The spin wheel thing only works if no other player has spun it before in that session. So try it in an invite only session

[@indelibleglacier219]

9:25 This myth is true too. But the timing is around 4 seconds instead of 5, it requires some micros depending on your set and latency, but you will see the wheel landing somewhere really close to podium vehicle.

[@Killabeezee]

No macro required, count Mississippis and send it on 5 instead of counting the Mississippi

[@Reeryte]

Black cellphone only works in single player and the firefighters will spray water at you if you anger them. The best way to get them to spray water is to get a other firetruck and when they in their firetruck and not scared spray the water at their firetruck.

[@Stormyy6310]

For #71 that's untrue, you can actually made a sticky bomb stick to an npc, firstly you need a sticky bomb (in the video you had a proximity mine) an de then you need to aim at the back of an npc that isn't spooked and it'll stick to him, I have done this personally but there are also videos of putther killing tryhards with this technique however you also have to keep in mind that it is quite random : it'll work for a certain type of npc but not for another

[@racermigs1]

#97 There are some boats that can get capsized. The Tug can be flipped if you load with cars and try sailing over large waves.

[@racermigs1]

Fun fact: Neon underglow affects your car's handling by shifting its weight to either the front or back.

This is new to know 😊 Apart from being a weird bug, I think it may be a good feature to use, in order to rebalance some cars weights. Thanks for sharing.

[@Shadow458i]

The podium wheel one is true, it's just very difficult to get the exact 5 seconds needed to land on the car. Whenever there's a car on the podium that I genuinely want I use that + the closing game thing to get another spin to guarantee getting it.

[@Sly2BandOfThievesIsTheBestSly]

For me it's 4 seconds.

[@nakulaman]

It's literally not true. The glitch is just a visual bug, it doesn't actually affect the odds of getting the car.

[@Sly2BandOfThievesIsTheBestSly]

@@nakulaman ??? I literally do that every week I want to win the car. It works with waiting pretty much exactly 4 seconds. It's not a visual bug.

19:26 sticky bombs can actually stick to the backs of the NPCs.just the backs not front side.

[@kubye5927]

Even though I don't play GTA V anymore this video makes me really appreciate the details of this 10yo game

[@coyoteone6197]

The "Extra Armor from Franklin" thing used to work, but you had to fill up a different armor category than Super Heavy first. Then you'd get a full set of Super Heavy along with whatever other type armor you had. They seem to have patched it out at some point though.

[@TransferPoint9346]

18:43 You can get snacks at the bottom floor of the Agency next to the elevator? I've only ever gotten them from the kitchen. 25:13 "Money Tech Armored Vehicles"?

[@yasininn76]

The one about civilians getting chased by cops if they hit their car is true, but just as sometime it doesn't happen when you git them lightly, same goes for this. I've seen it happen tho

[@EmperorEcho]

For 22 whales can appear as during DarkVipers Cayo Speedruns, a dead whale does appear. It doesnt move tho, its dead.

[@chrismitchell6478]

With the Franklin Armor, they patched it out a while ago. The trick was to get 10 Heavy Armor from ammunation or your agency, then get the supply drop which would give you 10 Super Heavy Armor. I actually changed my Agency location to the most expensive spot because I could buy the heavy armor there then leave and call Franklin to get the drop and it would be a block away at a gas bar, vs where I was where it would be about a mile away.

[@chrismitchell6478]

my thought is either get rid of the lower class armors or let us max out each stack.

[@Lizard75]

1:18 it works, its not a lie, but only in singleplayer

[@OverRun666]

23:45 you’ve not busted the myth. it works. you just drove to close to the fire engine. you can see the hose turns towards you but you’re driving right along side it touching it

[@SilverCyric]

26:52 It’s hard but you can flip a boat in water. Did d it only once by accident hitting a rock in a dinghy on a Cayo scope out mission.

[@phil955]

12:35 It's not calling the cops, it's having a wanted level and bringing the cops to a gang hangout. As soon as they shoot, there'll be a shootout. I often do that.

[@bleedingblue7854]

Regarding myth #71 - throwing stickies onto NPCs is a thing, or at least it used to be. I've seen @putther do a video where he puts a sticky on an NPC and waits as it approaches an unsuspecting opponent before detonating it. Brilliant & hilarious! 😂

[@Bioh9z9rd]

It is still a thing you have to put the stickys on their backs

[@indelibleglacier219]

8:30 The myth is actually true, but only firemen spawn by an active fire have fireproof. Firemen spawn by 911 or naturally spawn can be set on fire.

[@enzorintaro]

0:44 i remember ( long time ago ) seeing that the "take yourself out" was greyed out in passive mode , maybe this is where the myth came from. Because it was an actual thing back in the days.

[@sprite296]

11:31 This actually only works in story mode, as for some reason if you press the jump button and then press b or circle on your controller you will ragdoll. If you land on an npc sitting on a bench they just straight up die. Its pretty funny

[@phoenixvance6642]

My favourite weird thing to do is submerge a boat and drive it by using the bow of a big ship at one of the docks as a reverse ramp that forces you underwater. An NPC in a police boat even pulled it off once while chasing me

Try #85 again but pull the parachute and then cut it to free fall instead of sky diving down like your character does when you have a parachute.

You can’t set fireman on fire, if AND only if, you let them get out of the truck undisturbed. If you don’t let them get out without panicking, they don’t gain the immunity, and you can burn them. Because you panicked them, you could set them alight.

it would be interesting to see a comparison of different special ammo you can unlock via the bunker. Like what is the difference between AP and FMJ when you're shooting at players, npcs and vehicles, with and without armor. that, and do tracer rounds have any effect whatsoever. Also, is there a difference for the ammo effects between if you shoot at an armored torso vs. the bare legs and heads with and without helmets.

HOWEVER, I had a 3 star situation and was running around the hills looking for a way to hide, and tried the bush. While the helicopters flew over head, and actually were still shooting me (with reduced damage for some reason), my stars still flashed and went away. This is a bizarre instance I know....and it does NOT work with 4 stars because the helo's will repel down swat team members who will just kill you.
