top tier video. it encapsulates the GTAStunting history, touches on previous methods of getting the stunts out to the public and tells the story of our homeboy RAD which in its way is also a tribute to the guy that literally shaped the way we still do things 20 years after GTAStunting became its own thing. huge props to KompoT, RAD and PaTt (Airbrush) and thanks for involving me as well

[@KompoTStunting]

Glad to have you bro. Thank you

[@muscletype2]

you know the world is good again if videos about 3d gtas are still relevant

[@KompoTStunting]

[@incosy]

I've always wished for a video like this, great summary, great job! Been a pleasure to me to be a small part of this community. -jooker

[@KompoTStunting]

Glad you enjoyed it ❤

[@BigSmokeGTAS]

What a legendary essay for the GTAStunting community

[@KompoTStunting]

Thanks bro

[@Terrtail]

Holy shit RAD sounds exactly like the youtuber Parkerr, who does Gmod trolling videos lmao. Amazing video btw, great editing!

[@KompoTStunting]

Sadly thats not rad's voice, thats another stunters voice named PaTt aka Airbrush who is also Australian, who i asked to help to voice over RAD's question since they are both Australian :)

[@PaTt_is_me]

I can kinda hear it tbh haha. Thanks for watching!

[@MilosCsrb]

Nice video man, beautiful shots, have nostalgic feeling cant explain

[@KompoTStunting]

Thanks man glad u liked it

[@SwegitMaximum]

What an amazing documentary! Learned some new things and it was cool hearing RAD's story. Thank you!

[@KompoTStunting]

Glad you liked it brother

[@Rainbowstunting]

Nice watch! Can see a lot of effort went into this! One of the biggest reasons why we use FL-ON in VC is because it completely ruins the replays you save if you have a lot of FPS, the physics breaking is a different problem :p And not sure if Tackleberry's modding send shockwaves through the community seeing how most people don't even know it happened.

[@KompoTStunting]

agreed, ty for watching

[@AquaEVOLVE]

Such a great video, congratulations! To find out Barney lives in the same area must've been a crazy feeling I couldn't even imagine. Glad he gets the credit for his technique still to this day

[@KompoTStunting]

Yessir, I was so shocked myself... haha

[@MarchuxProductions]

holy shit, I remember watching a Darkness and Kaneda edit reposted on a local Facebook clone circa 2008. This brings back so many memories!

[@KompoTStunting]

Im very happy that it does :)

[@GuiltySpark-uj8en]

Nice video. I fondly remember the SAMP stunting servers and videos on UltraStunting on UIF. Multiplayer really expanded the stunting community.

[@KompoTStunting]

thanks bro :)

[@muratthaqi6042]

i swear to god last week i checked my old laptop i used to play vice citt and i saw a folder with lots of stunt videos fownloaded from the og gta stunt era from 2005,2006,2008 i watched them all and what a timing to see a video like this i always wondered how they did these stunts even thou they always mentioned in their videos that they didn't use mods. Thank you for this masterpiece video 😇

[@KompoTStunting]

your welcome!

[@Madvillayo]

@muratthaqi6042 - you may have some stunt videos that went missing - our community is trying to get a complete history of all stunting videos ever made, specifically on GTASdb. please reach out if you'd be willing to help contribute to our stunting database

[@scemmerjoke]

I'm a speedrunner and this videos is SUPER interesting. I knew gta had stunt potential but I didn't knew it would be possible to clips displayed in the vids.

[@KompoTStunting]

I'm very glad and happy to hear that another community enjoyed the history of ours :) means the world to us, thanks again bro!

[@legendariosespantoso]

[@MannFace51]

Early KZbin was full of GTA:SA/VC/III stunt montages, so many were forced to use Paralyzer or 009 Soundscape songs. Speaking of music, what’s the song used during the last stunt montage around 21:00 ?

[@KompoTStunting]

Its Ken Theme Song :D

[@KompoTStunting]

Thanks for the help once again & for watching!

[@LifeofBrad1]

Next to AMV's, GTA San Andreas stunting and drifting videos were like the coolest things in the early days of KZbin. Sucked that my family had a crappy PC, so I was stuck playing the PS2 version of San Andreas until I finally got a gaming PC for my 18th birthday in 2012.

[@KompoTStunting]

I began with ps2 too ❤

[@matchc0635]

I remembered how people in SAMP would also get an edge on bike racing or bike drive-by using this method, I attempted this aswell when I was still massively into the game too but never get to reliably recreate it, maybe it's because all I did is to spam up and down in hope it just works.

[@Ltab249]

spamming up and down only works on GTA IV :)

[@frog0972]

i remember as a kid iused to praise Nitzkit and (all)Beast

[@KompoTStunting]

[@CovertHD]

Amazing video, stumbled on this searching for some old videos to watch for nostalgia. I was registered back on GTAS in 2008 as GI JOE, was never very good at stunting but absolutely loved being part of the community, I've wanted to re-connect on there but unfortunately lost my log in details. There will be few memories that beat chatting with stunters over MSN on the shit family computer before booting up SA or VC, recording with Fraps, downloading the songs you heard in stunt videos on Limewire and getting into arguments over who was or wasnt modding on the forum. Simpler times. I hope everyone from that era is doing great. Thanks for putting this video together!

[@KompoTStunting]

Glad you enjoyed it 🎉

[@artifexish]

Great stuff Kompot. Also cool to hear some people in the video, makes it feel more like a community thing.

[@KompoTStunting]

Thanks Artifex ❤

[@v.nd.tt.s8943]

I remember we were on a Sanchez race in the badlands on WTLS server, and the other guy would always drive faster than me. Took me a bit of time to realize if you tap arrow forward button multiple times, that gives additional acceleration to the bike. Yep, after that bikes seemed objectively superior, because you can't achieve the same speed in a car as you can on a bike.

[@KompoTStunting]

yep

[@NightFlutter]

is this 2006 again??

[@KompoTStunting]

2006 never ended for us

[@HugoGTAS]

Thx dude ! Awesome documentary !!!

No prob ty for watching!

Incredible vid Komp! You did a great job outlining the history of GTAS as well as making it accesible for those not familiar. Great work!

[@KompoTStunting]

Im glad! Thanks for joining me, you were amazing man

[@danielmugas3009]

i remember when i used to try all of those stunts when i was a kid, hundreds of tries and countless hours of trying... good old days, im happy t see that they keep doing that!

[@KompoTStunting]

Glad you enjoyed ❤

Replaying GTA SA on ps2 and trying to 100% it rn, still a banger

[@KompoTStunting]

haha yessirrrr

[@nonyabusiness4151]

An idea for afterward... Create a save file where CJ is King of the City before reaching Grove Street. You do have to avoid that block, though. Delivery missions, safehouse, horse races.. Then sidequests and weapons..

[@sorly3636]

I love stunting

[@KompoTStunting]

[@XSAoRAD]

Great video, KompoT! Glad I could have had such an impact within GTA Stunting. The golden era of stunting was an amazing scene to be a part of, that we'll all look back on with fond memories. Shouts also go out to Herb for reaching out to make this happen, and Nem for dragging me out of retirement during Covid 😊

[@isaaciktaile1118]

I just want to ask do you guys nail those bumps every time after the years of practice? Or do you guys fall off your bike sometimes too? I know some of the methods you guys use but I fall off 80% of the time.

[@Ltab249]

i have been stunting for nearly 15 years, i still fall 80% of the time :D it's part of the process! depends on the spots obviously but bailing often is something to be expected
