50 ways to die in Grand Theft Auto IV

Watch Niko get burnt, battered, shot, crushed and more in our exclusive video

Words: James Jarvis, GamesRadar UK

During the making of our huge catalogue of GTA IV video guides, to add to the frustration of having to produce perfect insane jumps against a deadline and shoot every damn pigeon on the map in half a day, we also had to contend with the inconvenience of Niko's mortality.

The general rule is: the harder you try to do a task under pressure, the more likely Niko will find himeslf at the end of a spectacularly unlucky and painful demise. So we've dredged up our favourite snuff clips from the hours of raw footage and edited them together for sicko comedy value in the video below - subtitle: The Orgy Of DEATHZ!!!

I was standing on the only large skyscraper in the first island playing multiplayer with my friend, he hit me with a helicopter (rotors), the hit knocked me flying off the skyscraper, which normally kills you, I hit a wall, bounced off and landed perfectly on a fire escape and lived. WE are still trying to duplicate it whilst using a camera.

I once jumped out of a chopper at peak height and managed to smack right into a wooden telephone pool and or lamppost and Niko's spine completely snapped, I'm talking back of the head to buttcheek action. I was also once driving full speed on a Sanchez and hit the hood of a car, I flipped over it, flew over two other cars and smacked right into the grill of a Semi and planted my face into the hood.

does anyone know about the swingset of death? its a glitch that if performed properly will send your lifeless husk of a body halfway across the entire map. Seriously!

omg, is niko a zombie or something! I mean, 100 of those and he still ends up at a hospital and never dies! Freaky.....

Or maybe he is dead! Like that Remember Me book, he doesn't realize he's dead..... O_o

sorry, just had to mention that. I like seeing him get murdered

I must have suffered the most Epic death of all when, whilst casually strolling through a park, Mr. Bellic decided to simply emit an almighty 'Deathshriek'(tm) and proceed to drop dead, for apparently no reason whatsoever.
No Blood, nothing. Just an untimely, unexpected and wholly undeserved demise.
Legendary, and massively amusing to boot.

the name is a little missleading. i was expecting 50 different types of death but most were repeated but just in a different situation
AnonymouZ  - 3 months 24 days ago 
stroypa you whiny bitch, you were still entertained, weren't you?

Besides, if you fall of a helicopter and land on a TRAIN, it definitely sounds different than falling on pavement. Thus, another kind of death.

The editing tho... holy shit you guys. That must've taken some time to do that. xD 3 Thumbs up for that!
