Fortnite Player Discovers Hilarious Glitch That Causes Vehicles to Go Flying

gamerant.com:

One Fortnite player discovers an interesting and hilarious glitch that is capable of launching vehicles throughout the map and, depending on how fast the collision happens, sometimes outside of it completely. While it continues to be massively popular with players, Fortnite has evolved considerably from where it began as a Battle Royale experience in 2017. Not only has there been countless collaborations over the years, the game has added new maps, locations, weapons, and game modes over the years, which has gone a long way in keeping the community intact and the game feeling fresh.

However, with a constant stream of updates and seasonal content, bugs and glitches do manage to find their way in on occasion. Over the years, there have been some more notorious ones that have impacted the community, including ones that gave players infinite health or another recent one during the Fortnite OG event that killed players instantly for touching a specific area at Fatal Fields. The latest one the community has discovered is pretty specific, so it's unlikely to impact games normally, though it's also very hilarious at the same time.

The latest discovered Fortnite glitch involves vehicles in the game, posted in a short video on the subreddit by a user named HoarthYT. As the video shows, Hoarth drives vehicles into slurp barrels dotted around the Battle Royale map, which effectively sends the car flying through the air. Based on the angle and speed of the vehicle, it sometimes gets launched to different areas of the map, while other times, the vehicle spins wildly as it is sent flying beyond the regional borders into the void. Naturally, the comments were both in awe and in stiches over it, with many indicating they'd be giving this a try in their next match.

As it turns out, recreating the glitch is fairly easy to pull off as HoarthYT details the exact steps at the end of the short video. To fully pull this off in a Fortnite match, players will need to do the following:
