The Ultimate Playground For Chaos
Los Santos is a chaotic sandbox where the weirdest, funniest, and most unexpected things can happen at a moment's notice! You might think you’ve seen it all in “GTA V,” but this game is packed with endless possibilities that most players never even stumble upon. So let's look at 20 hilarious things you didn’t know you could do in Grand Theft Auto V.

1. Launch Yourself With A Swing Set
Physics can be unpredictable, especially in GTA V. Drive any vehicle into certain swing sets around Los Santos, and watch as you're violently catapulted into the air. A notorious glitch from GTA IV, this returning bug sends players soaring across the map like an uncontrolled missile.

2. Survive A High-Dive Explosion
Timing is everything. Jump off a high structure, like the Maze Bank Tower, and detonate a sticky bomb mid-air just before hitting the ground. If done correctly, the explosion cancels fall damage, leaving you standing—albeit dazed—among the chaos.

3. Turn Yourself Into An Animal
Munch on one of the secret peyote plants scattered throughout the map to transform into anything from a seagull to a cougar. These trippy hallucinations let you fly, attack, or wander aimlessly as your new form. The best part? Unexpected animal antics lead to unpredictable encounters.
4. Get Ejected By A Car Hood
Stand in front of an NPC’s car and let them rev their engine. Instead of running you over, some will send you flying with an oddly powerful hood pop. Try this with different vehicles for hilarious results. Sometimes, a simple traffic jam becomes an impromptu circus act.
5. Cause A Riot With A Single Punch
Pick the right spot—like Vespucci Beach or a busy parking lot—punch an NPC, and watch as bystanders react unpredictably. Some flee, others fight, and occasionally, an all-out brawl erupts. If you’re lucky, NPCs will turn on each other while you slip away unscathed.

6. Witness A UFO Abduction
Complete the game 100%, and an eerie surprise awaits. Head to Mount Chiliad at 3:00 AM in stormy weather, and a hovering UFO appears. Its flickering lights and ominous hum create an unforgettable moment, proving that conspiracy theorists in Los Santos might be onto something.
7. Use A Fire Hydrant As A Makeshift Cannon
Ever wanted to fly without a plane? Stand on a broken fire hydrant, and let the water pressure blast you skyward. Perfectly positioning yourself takes practice, but once mastered, this trick sends you airborne faster than most in-game amusement park rides.
8. Get Caught By The Altruist Cult
Delivering hitchhikers to the Altruist Cult starts as easy money but quickly turns into a trap. Eventually, they turn on you, leading to an intense firefight. If you make it out alive, their hideout becomes a personal loot zone. It's one of the game’s most bizarre betrayals.

9. Summon A Bigfoot Hunt
Urban legends come to life when you complete the right set of missions. Deep in the San Andreas forests, a supposed Sasquatch lurks, waiting for a showdown. Whether it's real or just a guy in a gorilla suit, Rockstar keeps the mystery alive with this creepy Easter egg.

10. Exploit The No-Handed Wheelie Glitch
Perform a bike stunt while activating the “Air Thrusting” gesture, and suddenly, you’re pulling off a hands-free wheelie. It defies physics and looks weird, but that’s what makes it so amusing. Who needs handlebars when you have pure, unfiltered GTA absurdity?

11. Ride The Roller Coaster In First Person
Most players ignore Del Perro Pier’s attractions. However, take a seat on the roller coaster in first-person mode, and the experience transforms. Sudden drops, shaky camera angles, and exaggerated NPC screams make this one of the weirdest yet funniest in-game activities.
12. Get Chased By A Mountain Lion
Hiking through Blaine County is a risky business. Mountain lions lurk in the wilderness, waiting to pounce on unsuspecting travelers. The best part? Running away only makes the chase funnier as the AI struggles to keep up. If you're feeling devious, lure one into town and watch the panic unfold.

13. Steal A Plane Mid-Air
Nothing screams “GTA V chaos” like hijacking a plane in mid-flight. Using a stunt jump or an aerial maneuver, players can parachute onto planes, kick out the pilot, and claim it mid-air. Pull this off successfully, and you’ve earned your unofficial wings.

14. Cause Mayhem With Exploding Gas Pumps
Shoot at a gas station pump and watch the chaos unfold. NPCs panic, cars pile up, and sometimes, an entire chain reaction of explosions ignites. Perfect for those who appreciate a good old-fashioned cinematic action sequence, which is a courtesy of the game’s unpredictable AI.
15. Take A Selfie With A Cop Mid-Arrest
Get close enough while a police officer arrests an NPC, and snap a selfie. Generally, they’ll ignore you, letting you document Los Santos’ justice system at work. Other times, they’ll abandon the arrest and turn their attention to you. Either way, it’s a picture-perfect moment.

16. Turn Pedestrians Into Instant Sprinters
Aim a gun (without firing), and NPCs react dramatically. Some flee in terror, others dive behind cover, and a few brave ones might even square up to fight. The unpredictability of GTA V’s pedestrian AI makes for endless amusement, with no bullets required.

17. Send A Bus Flying With A Tank
Ever wondered how much force it takes to send a public bus into orbit? Hop into a Rhino tank and charge at full speed into a city bus. The impact sends the bus soaring through the air in the most unrealistic yet hilarious way possible. Sometimes, it will even do flips before crash-landing on unsuspecting NPCs.

18. Witness NPCs Argue Over Parking Spaces
NPCs are oddly passionate about their parking spots. Stick around long enough, and you’ll see two drivers exchange words—or fists—over a minor fender bender. It’s a rare yet oddly satisfying glimpse into the strange, unscripted chaos of Los Santos.
19. Fling Yourself With A Dumpster Dive
Jump into a moving dumpster, and physics goes haywire. Sometimes, the physics engine will glitch and send you soaring through the air. Other times, you’ll just end up rolling down the street in a trash can. Whatever way it is, it’s comedy gold.
20. Bait Sharks With Your Own Blood
Swimming in deep waters while injured attracts sharks. They circle menacingly before attacking. If you time it right, you can lure them toward NPC boats for hilarious reactions. It’s an absurd yet effective way to make the oceans of Los Santos even more weird.
