The Grand Theft Auto Myths and Legends Iceberg Explained (Supercut) 

Fun thing is that every GTA actually has a serialkiller… The protagonist.

I love how there’s always those few people who claim they were “attacked” by an easter egg that’s not even in the game

What people forget is that CJ also loses health when hungry,and keeping the game running for an IRL night is equivalent to CJ not eating for like, a month in game. So ofc he is in hospital XD. If anyone wants calculations : each irl minute is treated as an hour in game, so a GTA day ends up being 24min each. Assuming a night time of 8hrs irl, it equates to 480min of irl time (8hrs x 60minutes/hr). Dividing 480 by 24 gives us 20 days. So CJ is hungry for 20 days if someone left their game running overnight.

I’m dying for more creepy myths in gta 6. There’s just something so nostalgic about the investigation

Back in the day it was fun talking the GTA myths with friends at school because it was at that time when we didn't use the internet as much and we just had to take people's word on what they saw. It was always somebody's cousin who claimed to have seen Bigfoot in San Andreas 😅

I like how after awhile, Niko Bellic himself became an Urban Legend in GTA V. People saying they've seen him walking around, seen him with Packie robbing the store if you get to him at just the right time, secret conversations mentioning him, actual conversations, mug shots, social accounts, clothing items like his supposed jacket in one of the bars. And hidden character files.

Just what I needed: a two hour long video of stuff i already heard but love to listen to anyways

I do love how wacky their easter eggs get, like it's not just all predictable references like Scarface, the Godfather, but rather, weird crap like Aliens, ghosts, bigfoot, or strange locations like the beating heart in the Statue of Liberty. I also miss a lot of these older mysteries, as recent data miners who go through the files often take away a lot of the fun speculation, while saving a lot of time that you could have "Wasted" looking for it, there was just something cool about looking for it yourself, or hearing rumors from friends, made a game feel a lot larger than it was by trying to uncover secrets that most people might not know about. Now it's like "I swear I saw X while playing" then "Data miners dug through and its not real" just ends it.

The suicidal npcs actually refer to various NPCs mainly a particular woman who has a mental breakdown upon being attacked and will say very dark things mainly indicating she wants to take her own life. The NPCs that fall off buildings and are often heard screaming are NPCs that spawned either ontop of a building and don't have proper pathing or they just simply fall through the map.

am I tripping or did he forget to mention the Statue of Happiness’ literal 20 foot chained up pulsating heart in GTA IV that has got to be the scariest thing i’ve ever seen in my life

Fun fact: The Eddie Low secret you talked about at 37:58 technically doesn't end there. In GTA 5, as Trevor if you stay in his Bodhi offroader while driving around in the desert, you can occasionally hear transcripts & conversations through the radio. One of these will have a truck driver named Eddie Low start talking, & after saying his name to the person on the other end they'll ask him if he's the serial killer Eddie Low, to which the man responds he isn't & that it's disrespectful to assume. They go back & forth a little longer. Honestly it was a pretty cool & very easy-to-miss thing they included to reference an already easy-to-miss side character in GTA 4. Edit: 1:13:32 this is NOT an Easter egg, although I don't blame you for thinking it is because it's the common assumption. This is actually a quite common bug with NPCs & raised balcony's or floors, for some reason the AI just bugs out & kills the NPC because it's not sure how the NPC can get down. You can see this exact thing with the second floor of a plaza in Vespucci across the street from a construction site, if you bump into the NPCs they die instantly & if you scare them they will run back & forth on the roof not knowing how to get down or what to do.

Eddie low is sort of in rdr2 and that character is named Edmund Lowry Jr and he is also a serial killer, you can find him after piecing together notes found throughout the map next to a gory scene which leads to where he is and I won’t spoil the rest

It’s weird to me that GTA has always be controversial for violence but I’ve never heard about Eddie Low.

I remember looking with my cousin for the cave with a horror clown in there in gta sa, we’ve found the cave but there was no clown. We tried it at different times but he still didn’t spawn. Good times

Upstate Liberty, Back o Beyond and Sprunk factory are probably the creepiest locations that give me chills anytime i freerun without any noise or radio. Especially later two, which were made to be scary, while Upstate is just empty, but still somehow uncanny to be there. Great video, made me remember some cool and spooky memories from my childhood.

49:59 I am really high and was not ready for that unintentional jump scare.

You can get to the ghost town in gta without mods by flying the dodo plane with clipped wings. It's difficult to fly but can be done and you hit crazy turbulence when you get near the ghostdown.

This was a whole nostalgia trip, lol. I remember watching GTA myths and legends videos from 2009-2012

I wish there was a mod that adds all this myths and appear where and when they should appear according to the myth, it would be fun finding them all.

Its really weird that in the horses myth, vice city came out in october 2002, around the same time, November 2002, Rockstar acquired a studio called Angel studio, which were developers of red dead revolver, a game in which you definitely ride a horse. The timeline is so close to it actually possibly making sense.

The San Andreas era of myths will always have a special place in my memories. Used to be a time when a lot of those myth videos would start with the X-files theme followed by either a really cool mod or a jump scare 😂

If Rockstar made a new IP with a focus on cryptids and secrets I'd absolutely play it

Honestly Rockstar just needs to make a game based around investigating myths like these

It was really tough to be a San Andreas fan back in the day. I'd say the game was scarier than many horror films. Especially in foggy weather. Bigfoot's definitely a legend of every GTA fan at the time. Awesome video, I watched it all and got so much nostalgic feeling. I also made a spooky Grand Theft Auto video, but not about myths. About actual scary places in GTA games.

Thanks for scaring the shit out of me with Jeff when I wasn't paying attention, much appreciated.

Yesterday I believe was the anniversary of the franchise and you posted this super cut to celebrate it. Glad you did. Happy anniversary to GTA, hope you get better soon..

56:50 about the background footage, imagine seeing a guy speed into another car, fly out the window and crash in front of you, then see him get up like nothing happened and watch him break into a car and speed away, hitting another car while doing so

The fact that San Andreas got such a reputation and community based around these occult, paranormal, supernatural events is really wild when you think about it. The game is largely, in tone and theme, a realistic gang based story grounded in the harsh reality of inner city gang warfare. The storied of the areas surrounding the city are really just a side story to that main series of events. But some of its biggest mysteries revolve around, entirely fabricated and audience generated, stories about ghosts, aliens and Bigfoot in the game. Arguably the biggest mystery is why people were so desperate to see all of these mysteries in San Andreas in the first place.

Holy hell, didn't expect to get jumpscared by Jeff the Killer here of all places

I remember trying to look for the rat man with some friends online back in the summer of 2008 on GTA IV. I was so convinced it really existed even though the RU-vid videos I watched never showed him lol.

1:35:48 Konstantinos is a real person, not just a character. In real life, he's a demonologist who also at least once gave an interview on the paranormal radio show, Coast To Coast AM. He was just putting on an act for the in-game radio show, but in real life, he seems to be pretty cool.

This video brought back a creepy nostalgia that made me as scared as I was watching GTA San Andreas cryptid/myth videos when I was younger

I know this is me "um actually"-ing, but it cannot be the Loch Ness Monster unless found in the Loch Ness.

Man this brings back memories. I remember being a little kid watching gta San Andreas and vice city horror videos and theories on my grandma’s computer. Simple times 🥺

I remember a myth legend for Bully as kid, it was a werewolf, I used to go to my friend’s house to play Bully and he used to tell me about him seeing a werewolf, and where to go to try to see it myself and to hear the howls - though I attempted, I never had any luck, but he’s not the only one that also spoken about it too. Rockstar Games could’ve taken the myths and put it to good use, maybe have a DLC surrounding myths, etc. in the GTA IV era, but ofc they wouldn’t, and I think it would be better this way. Especially how Rockstar is these days. Great video, gave me hella nostalgia on these myths, and the videos that came with them too

The stroller thing was always creepy as hell. It's what got me into these myths. I realized when I saw the stroller that there's never any kids in GTA, so why is there suddenly a very intentionally placed stroller? Put me off of playing the game for a while, honestly.

So much nostalgia i remember playing gtasa and getting scared when in a Forest for 2 long thinking bigfoot will kill me 😂

50:00 this scared the shit out of me man, atleast make the image fade in!

13:15 bro got destroyed by that car💀

I love the extra effort to put the chapters for time stamps really useful and it’s a shame I see bigger RU-vidrs that don’t do it in there videos much love and great vid😊

Love your videos man, these games have a special place in my heart and your commentary is great. Perfect combo cant wait to see whats next

The Gator Keys in Vice City were meant to be a parody of the Florida Keys, which are a chain of islands that stretch out into the Gulf of Mexico from the state's southern coast, before being scrapped during development. IIRC they aren't swamp lands like the Everglades, so it's unlikely that Alligators or Crocodiles were ever going to be located there; it was just a name chosen due to Alligators being heavily associated with Florida.

You're right bro crocodiles will be in GTA 6

I still dont understand why someone stared at a wonky ass street texture in 2002 and thought "hmm yes, there are demons in this game."

50:00 jesus christ i wasn't looking at the screen and the jeff the killer face almost killed me

"Usually nothing can stop a train in this game" Somebody hasn't been stacking enough caaaars on the traaaack~

GTA Online has an Alien Costume - It’s the reward for finding all 10 Movie Props. I constantly run around in my alien costume and the reactions are pretty funny most the time. But my favorite Online Costume is the BigFoot costume. Because usually any lobby with multiple BigFoot Costumed Players group up and make for some interesting events that unfold lol.

Ah yes, another longform sourcebrew video to nod off to. Don't mean that in a nasty way, love to drift off to this stuff.

a weird bug happened once where all ped models were only strippers. it wasn't a cheat code and i've never seen it happen again. keep in mind strippers that strippers _only_ spawn in clubs, nowhere else.Also the police garage in San Fierro will spawn _many_ kinds of vehicles, i've seen it spawn a Hydra, which clipped into the walls and exploded. GTA SA was full of weird shit.

Man I love rewatching the entire series. Great video man

Eddie Low also had a page on one of the dating sites online in GTA IV, it’s been a while since I read it, but I’m pretty sure he insinuates how he committed a few more murders.

just what i wanted playing in the background, great video mans

Every video this guy posts somehow is my type of content to watch

Great video! I like how long it is so I don't have to fiddle around trying to find another good video every 10 minutes, also probably the first iceberg that actually gave me some spooks.

59:25 LMAO big ups sourcebrew, I love that clip of DSP and it never fails to make me laugh!

I used to watch these growing up and some of them freaked me out to where I had trouble sleeping at night. Now I've since moved on from watch them, but seeing a video like this I'd like to watch and go back to the vids or see if any new ones came out

Love it. Great stuff man

Awesome collection of myths and legends in the GTA series. I sometimes put this video on my second monitor while editing to have some entertainment while going through the tedious process.

Anything: *exists* sourcebrew: *some even claiming to be attacked by it*

Imma get comfy and enjoy this video thank you

Legit I believe I encountered Ratman in GTA IV. I was in the underground train station at a place with a bunch of intersections and tracks for different trains. There I heard noises of what sounded like a homeless guy. Now this part might be my memory being terrible, but I want to say I walked around for a while trying to track the noise down. Eventually I found this NPC and he started to run towards me, I ran away, and when I looked back he was gone. Then when I went back to the original location there were no more noises.

This was a good iceberg vid. Thank you for taking the time to make this.

I really wish many of these are real, since I love the feeling of mystery associated with cryptids and conspiracies. If they can’t be real irl, surely they could in a satirical game. Data mining is a double-edged sword; it can set facts right, but it can also kill the theorising and mysteries

I don’t know about you but I get chills when someone talks about scary stuff from gta iv abandoned buildings

You have such a calming voice. I play this video every time before sleep. My comfort video…

I don't know if anyone else commented this but at 1:15:35 those are IAA Agents and it's confirmed with the GTA Online DLC update from Summer 2022 with Agent ULP and it's a secret Facility underneath for research. (Also in the Doomsday Heist Setups)

Gta IV Karate Master isn’t just one occurrence. You can find multiple npcs doing these movements/stretches in liberty city park. Like yoga instructors

The ghost cars in SA are a reference to the movie Christine. The movie is about a 1958 Plymouth fury (the car the Glendale is based off of) that is basically possessed

I remember playing GTA SA on the PS2. Me and my friend always thought leather face would show up at midnight. Sure enough one day a random pedestrian showed up with a pistol shooting instead of a chainsaw wielding maniac. I don't know if it was a bug but it happened I screamed my butt off tho.

The Eddie Low Mystery from gta4 is bigger than people think.. This Mystery streches from gta4, through gta v to rdr2 because eddie low, the infinite killer from gtav and the serial killer from rdr2 are somehow releated.. nobody knows for sure if eddie low was born into a family of serial killers or if he was in a cult or something like this because they operate through generations.. this mystery is actually one of the biggest mysteries/easter eggs in the gta series because it goes really deep.. you can find clues, hints, smaller easter eggs, bodies and further discoveries all over liberty city, gta v's sanandreas and rdr2's game world i love all these Myths and secrets in gta.. Man i spend hours in the woods of Sanandreas searching Bigfoot and in the desert searching UFOs😂 I really miss those days man

Rockstar needs to make a story dlc like Undead Nightmare for GTA. Just a dlc that has a bunch of myths and creatures.

I've fallen asleep to this video twice 😅

Just love these iceberg videos

since everything immediately gets data mined for assets now that makes it pretty easy to debunk most myths kinda takes the fun out of it but at least there is a definitive answer and then you got the people who have no fekin clue how computer programs work and think despite someething not existing in the game files iT cOuLd StIlL bE tHeRe We DoNt KnOw

Those GTA SA videos in 08-09 used to scare me 😂

Fun fact about the Gordo ghost. With PS4 and Xbox one and beyond. If you go into first person and aim you'll get an equivalent of a jumpscare

So fun fact about Konstantinos! He's actually based and portrayed by a real occultist and neopagan writer named Konstantinos. He's been putting out occult books for almost 20 years. I grew up a dumb goth kid in the 90s/early 2000s, and his occult books were like, the coolest thing to pre-teen/teen me. He also used to pop up on Coast to Coast AM a decent amount when it was hosted by George Noory. He's honestly just a huge dork who really believes in the paranormal, or at least does a convincing job of selling that as a bit. His books are *not* good in the slightest but they're fun to poke fun at.

The Dark Corners clip for the kraken in GTA V brought me back a ways, holy shit. I remember their old vids about the kraken, and some weird reptilian monster in one of the tunnels, as well as something near the burned out shack tied to the Infinity Killer.

omfg i spit up my drink hearing fucking dsp after "Toxic Creature"

Bro this video is awesome 😎👍

Nostalgic Vibes for sure... 🙆🏻‍♂️☯️✌️

I think the fun part about GTA SA myths is because especially with the a weird npc killed people can have so many different answers like how with the riot cheat active even once in a game can screw with NPCs even if it's disabled later on

Great video some of these where new to me what is always welcome

This brings me back! I remember looking for some of these. Me and my friend spent hours looking for Rat Man in GTA IV. Good times....😁

Why why am I poison? Why am I toxic?! Classic DSP

28:59 NAHH WHO MADE CJ WHITE BRUH 💀💀💀

This video should have millions of views you put a lot of work into this

Great information, great editing, greet video ❤

10:40 the photograph was probably following cj with malicious intent but since his "weopon" was a camera he couldn't harm cj resulting in him taking pictures of cj, aldo there was a mission where cj had to take pictures of destroyed evidence

I had crazy glitch happen to me. It basically raining whales outta of the sky and planes were just randomly crashing. It was funniest shit ever

In Grand Theft Auto 6 Rockstar should add all of these myths to finally make them real.

The toxic creature from gta 4 is most likely a reference to the superhero series and character the toxic avenger

I remember back in 2004 one of my friends read in a forum that BigFoot was in San Andreas and we used to get together at a friend’s house every weekend to play games and that adventure took a couple months of our lives just trying to find it.

Eddie actually has a blog in GTA 4.

Instant like and i didn´t even saw this video. But for sure, this will be joy to watch.... :3

Man, I still remember first reading about flying to Carcer City in GTA III on the gamewinners forum in 2002.

Bro i still cant believe that i can just chill on sunday 5 to 12 on just a ps2 ,proper dualshock 2 ,a small crt tv and just gta sanandreas

Man you should make a video on the newest GTA discoveries. I would be interested in watching that. Like newest discoveries of things we didnt know were in the game until recently, or years after release.

Kids back then would talk for hours and hours about GTA myths, secrets they saw, glitches, how fast they finished the game, etc. Kids nowadays talk about how much money they’ve spent in GTA online. Truly a transvestite compared to the good days of GTA. I can’t even grasp how heavily monetized GTA VI will be, and how these pseudo-gamers will excuse it.

I love how most of these are just people, mostly kids, not understanding how videogame physics and graphics work.
