Glitches
The game was delayed a week to allow Rockstar Games additional
time to test the game for bugs. What a waste of time that was. Granted, there
doesn't appear to be many serious bugs in the game, but a lot of the smaller,
simpler stuff hasn't even been noticed. Here is our collection of Glitches from
the gameplay of GTA San Andreas along with a description of how to recreate them
in game. Clicking on a thumbnail will pop up with a larger screenshot. All
Images � Psy and GTA-SanAndreas.com 2004 and must not be reproduced anywhere

● The Walk Through Bridge
Location: Los Flores, Los Santos
Difficulty: Easy
Description:
In Los Flores there is a small, slanted bridge going over a motorway.
The side supports of this bridge are not solid and can easily be driven
through with a bike. |
● Feet In the Ground
Location: Ocean Docks, Los Santos (Really anywhere)
Difficulty: Medium
Description:
Inside a warehouse at ocean docks there are a pile of crates. Attempting
to jump behind them will result in your feet becoming stuck in the
ground. |

● Pizza Glitch
Location: Montgomery, Red County (Pizza Stack)
Difficulty: Easy
Description:
At the Montgomery Well Stacked Pizza instead of walking through the
door, jump into it. The door will push open and you can enter a small
black space inside which lets you see through a few walls. |
● Bike Car Morph
Location: Random
Difficulty: Very Difficult
Description:
Occasionally when smashing a bike into an oncoming car it will get
morphed with the car and result in a few seconds of sparks before
igniting and exploding. |

 |
● Morphed Trucks
Location: Random
Difficulty: Very Difficult
Description:
Similar to the above glitch, this is pretty much random. As you are
driving around you may see cars smashing into the back of each other.
Occasionally they will not stop when they make contact and go a few feet
further as seen in the image alongside. |
● Walk Through Hedge
Location: Las Venturas Strip (Out front of the Four Dragons
Casino)
Difficulty: Easy
Description:
There is a large hedge which runs down the road in front of the Four
Dragons Casino. This bush isn't solid and can be walked or driven
through. Not much of a glitch as it's probably common knowledge, however
it's still something strange. |

● Para-Bike Glitch
Location: Top Of Mount Chiliad
Difficulty: Easy
Description:
Grab the parachute from next to the Camper van at the top of the
mountain, then select it as your weapon and get on the bike to start the
Chiliad Challenge. When the race starts, speed to the left of the
mountain top where you'll see an American flag. Hit the ramp here and
jump off the side of the mountain, then a second of so into your fall,
bail from the bike and pull your parachute's cord. You will slowly fall
down to earth until the game respawns you on top of the mountain with
your parachute still equipped, but also on a bike. From now on you will
never fall off your bike when crashing, until you try to exit the
vehicle twice. |
●Sky Diving Underwater
Location: In Water
Difficulty: Very Difficult
Description:
When bailing from a plane you'll have the option to use a parachute, or
just freefall to earth. If you decide to land above water, there's no
worries about needing a chute as the water will not do any damage to you
if it's deep enough, however sky diving into the water will occasionally
result in you becoming stuck in sky dive mode and not being able to
move. This can be considered a bad bug in the game as I tried this for
my final Oyster after finding 49 out of 50 just to become stuck and have
to load the game back to when I had 29 Oysters. |

● The Super Stoppie
Location: Anywhere With A Bike
Difficulty: Medium
Description:
When performing a stoppie on bicycles it's a lot easier to lean forwards
than on motorbikes, especially with maxed out Cycling stats. Because of
this, the bicycles can tilt forwards at almost 90� and result in their
front wheel getting stuck in the ground. This can then be held for
almost as long as you like resulting in a huge stoppie bonus. My best
was a
230 Second Stoppie, but it's easily possible to last longer. |
● Valet Morphing
Location: Downtown San Fierro
Difficulty: Medium
Description:
Not much of a glitch, however you will sometimes be spawned partly
inside another Valet guy when doing the Valet Parking missions. |
 |
 |
● The Walk Through Hill
Location: San Fierro, Just North Of Mt. Chiliad
Difficulty: Easy (When you can find it)
Description:
Just North of Mount Chiliad, and South of the big radio transmitter at
the top of the hill, there is a small beach. From here head slightly to
the left and you will come to a hill which can be walked through. This
allows you to look under the map, as well as through the ground and into
buildings in the distance. Additional help in locating this hill can be
found
here. |
● Come-A-Lot Room Glitch
Location: East Come-A-Lot, Las Venturas
Difficulty: Easy
Description:
You'll need a jetpack, or a well placed helicopter to do this. To the
East of Come-A-Lot you will see a section of buildings on your radar
which are in small squares of six or so buildings. The first section of
six buildings you come to will have one building with some balconies
going all of the way around. Land on one of these top balconies and you
can then walk through the wall and get into the building. |

● Surviving An Insanely Long Fall
Location: Up In The Sky
Difficulty: Easy
Description:
You need to have completed level 12 in the Ambulance missions in order
to do this. This will ensure your maximum health has increased to the
largest it can. You will also need full health. When bailing from a
plane you'll be given the opportunity to use a parachute. For this
'glitch' I'd suggest you do. However as soon as you open the parachute,
hit triangle to bail from the chute. No matter how high up you were, you
will not die from the fall if you had full health, however you will
survive with only about 2% health left. This is useful for dropping into
Area 69, although don't expect to survive long without health. To see
