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.

[@imnothere2745]

He said you won’t get a wanted level if you shoot a car with a suppressed gun and he got a wanted level so myth busted

[@ISmellMopWho]

@@imnothere2745 They're talking about the opening clip. "If you call the cops on yourself while driving a stolen car you'll get a wanted level." And that is exactly what happened so the myth is confirmed, not busted like he says in the video.

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.

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 😂

[@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.

[@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.

[@massmanpro]

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.

[@LeftySupreme]

#29 - Must have had a hard time coming up with 100 actual myths lol

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.

Myth 22, sharks exist in online, even if only from underwater peyote.

[@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.

[@Specter882]

#22 you CAN technically find a whale in GTA Online, there is a chance of a dead whale spawning on the beach of Cayo Perico near the small broken docks

[@SlippinJimmy_]

This is one of the “myth busted” moments of all time

[@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

[@arnaudadriaensen501]

19:19 you can if you throw it on 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.

[@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.

[@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.

[@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.

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 💀💀

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

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.

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.

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

[@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"?

[@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

[@liamcarey6252]

Ya letting them slide here TGG, #71 you CAN throw sticky bombs on NPCs but they only stick to their backs. Personally I prefer a proxy mine on the back of an NPC outside the casino, so much fun! 😂

[@Fai-tn7ti]

#54 its actually works you just have to find some cafeteria where npc sits down and bump them by jumping and hit the npc. They'll die instantly.

[@stylie473joker5]

[@Stef14l]

4:10 i saw a lot of whales

[@OGSpriteF2]

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

[@bellcranel8873]

I have a myth for you! You can roll down the windows in your car by switching to your “fists” and aiming out of the window. Aiming out the window will cause the car to roll down the window instead of breaking the window. You break the window when you have a gun. Enjoy this one!

I'm gunna bust your whale myth. If you scope out Cayo Perico, when you return back to the mainland, you can fly/boat your way back to the Cayo spawn area in the lower right of the map, and there are a bunch of glitched left-overs from the island there, one of those things, is a beached whale.

[@OverRun666]

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.

[@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.

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.

@@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.

[@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.

[@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.

[@Jerekul]

25:13 I love "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

[@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.

[@webspec]

As usual, amazing work TGG. I'm an older gamer who appreciates a lot your content. For the sake of correctness, myths that say "You can" and you couldn't can't be marked as busted. For example, passing missiles through vehicles. I would suggest to mark them as impractical or likely busted but it may still be possible, just too hard. And the opposite also applies, absolute negations can't be confirmed by the lack of evidence. For example, the myth about whales. You can spend a lot of time (20 mins in your case) and because you couldn't find them, you can't conclude there aren't. But the rest of myths, for example when they say "you can", and you confirm you can, or the ones that say "you can't" and you show unmistakeable that you can't, are correct confirmations. Or something like that. Bottom line, some myths are inconclusive unfortunately. Thanks! 100 myths is a lot.
