Grand Theft Auto 5 Player Manages to Land a Jet on the Side of a Building

A Grand Theft Auto 5 player has posted a video online showing a chain of events that result in an odd parking spot for their airplane. The player is trying to hit another GTA 5 player and their black sports car with a jet plane.

Unlike in early GTA titles, GTA Online players can not only choose to drive a car or a truck but for example, ride in a speedboat or fly a jet plane. This brings all sorts of new and interesting physics challenges, which are perfectly showcased in a recent video posted by Reddit user hoodpoet06, who took GTA's third-fastest plane, a B-11 Strikeforce, for a spin. The player was flying above Los Santos and turned their plane directly at a car traveling towards the Las Lagunas Boulevard intersection.

However, the intended collision with the car was interrupted by a tree that hit the plane's left wing, not unlike in another GTA glitch with an NPC, and turned the plane off-axis toward a nearby building while slowing it down. To avoid hitting the building, the player tries to turn the military jet around, glancing at the Rockford Plaza shopping center. The blow turns the plane against the building, and it spins as it is falling out only to be caught by the light fixtures for the wall poster. And just like that, the player managed to land a jet plane on the side of a shopping center, although hardly by design.

Vehicle and environmental damage is an important feature of the franchise, albeit not meant to be a simulation. However, in this case, the physics modeling of the
