Even eight years after their original release, GTA 5 and GTA Online do many things damn right – above all shooting and driving. It doesn’t only get tricky when swimming or beating, but also when climbing.
Because who doesn’t know: Even the smallest incline quickly turns into a true Mount Everest or Chiliad when your own figure loses its grip and tumbling down the difficult climbed route in ragdoll mode.

Of course, one or the other veteran might already have thought of this trick himself. The established GTA YouTuber also covered DarkViperAU also uses this method, which is known for its glitch and exploit videos, among other things.
Only works in third person: The trick illustrated by gunnergio14, however, works with one restriction: with the gun drawn at the ready, hills or mountains can only be climbed in third-person mode – in the first-person perspective you will be pissed off again, like International_Air556 descri bes.
The community helps itself: In the comments below the Reddit post, there is not only applause, but also a few additional tips that may be of use to you. So among other things:
-
according to bread_eater_0 you can climb almost any surface on which “real” grass can be seen and not just a texture
-
the trick only works to a limited extent on Cayo Perico, as there are some invisible walls between the beaches and the rest of the island – says Jjzeng
-
if you get stuck on a mountain, drink beer until your character passes out; after that you will respawn at the nearest hospital – share Battle_Muscle.
-
alternatively you can also use the »easy way out« in the interaction menu – write Kraphtous.
-
Mountains are also easier to climb when you drive up on a motorcycle in reverse gear – loudly Dramatic_Patient_764.
Other useful tips: It is always worthwhile to keep your eyes open in the online forums of the GTA community. For example, players recently showed how crossing El Rubio’s property during the Cayo Perico Heist is child’s play or how you can get to a hidden room at the island’s airport.
