The fact the janitor says "I live here" as a excuse to join one of the most biggest heist in San Andreas history
Bro wanted in. 🤣
In the end, he did join the heist 😂😂
Bro escalated in the mafia real quick by just confidence 😅
@@geoff7727hahaha, that's some "big cojones" like Robina says in vc
@@fernandom.varela1109show me you got some big cojones , not little bitty Chiquita ones go take out the boat
I think it's kinda charming how CJ approaches the whole heist. Really goes to show the naive kid from the hood, that grew up on heist movies and is now way out of his depth. Kinda a neat way to flesh out CJs character.
Maybe Sweet got a point for once, when he said CJ never got it
Yeah, CJ was smart but he had some flaws.
@@jrt2792 Still much better than Sweet.
@@princesslyna3207 sweet is a busta
way out of his league, not depth.
Exactly. CJ watched the heist movies and looking at them being planned in a “secret room”, decides to use the same approach.
CJ could've put on a disguise or sunglasses since Ken Rosenberg was too anxious to go meet Johnny. Like seriously, this was a missed opportunity for CJ's customization.
CJ should've wore mask and hoodie for meeting Johnny Sindacco but the game seem more focus on his skill than his intelligence, so they made him always being an one man army in almost every missions. By the way I mean CJ is smart, methodical, a good strategist, a quick learner and one of the most rational GTA protagonists but he has a flaws and can be pretty naive due to his young age.
I don't know why they would include the Joke Glasses in game but NOT let CJ disguise himself for missions.
Granted, it does help him disguise himself from the police.
@@Zygothknightlord Age has nothing to do with him being naive. I am younger than him and I can read people's mind really well. Three times I was able to tell that girl I met is a bad person. One time I was wrong about one person but usually I have right when I think that someone is bad so the age has nothing to do with it.
@@skizzo1881 This sounds cool, I can also read people's mind.
@@Zygothknightlord Good for you.
It still baffles me on how CJ scared the living daylights out of Johnny Sindacco, only to give the man a fatal heart attack to get an ego boost. Then again, he buried a foreman alive with cement for Kendl having some horrible things said to her.
Sindacco family didn't know about CJ and CJ killed all the mobsters in the factory so that is why they don't come after CJ
CJ sleeps easier in 1998 when Toni killed Paulie Sindacco and three years later Salvatore Leone dies along with Catalina so no more trouble for him
Hope you're feeling better today mate
@@louisnapolitano I don't think C.J cared about the Sindacco or Leone family, considering he has his own gang, is a famous rapper's manager (so he has protection and money), and is a walking tank.
That cement mission made no sense why would you mass murder ppl cuz one insulted your sister
@@Bobby-rq5pe IDK, CJ also mentions something about taking over that business but he never does.
Wow Professional. You really made the Things CJ has done a trilogy: Bad, Good, and Stupid.
Now intelligent is all that's left
@@tonyshum5569 Or gangsta things left 😂
CJ is the reason why the military doesn't appear during wanted levels in GTA 4 and 5.
Yes he is breaking to all military bases in this game.
Vic broke the military base to steal the helicopter towards the end the VCS
@@yudhabagaskara98that game is set 8 years before the San Andreas storyline.
CJ really ruined them.
@Eh.........wrong, both San Andreas and Vice City Stories are in the 3D universe.
I always find it funny that both CJ and Eddie just look at Hernandez like "bruh"
What mission ?
@@CJ-pv4oo High Noon, after Pulaski shoots Hernandez.
@@RedNightFox”where’s Hernandez with that fking meat he’s been gone to long Tenpenny”
@@roxasbakerthat is funny thanks
>Steals super tech from Military
>>Battles federal agents
>>>Canes to some normal cops because the plot
>Not afraid of treason
>>Not afraid of multiple murder charges
>>>Afraid of one murder charge
"Now I know you blind, man. But you gotta see this."
"I appreciate your input, but please, fuck off."
"Damn that nigga fucked up."
lmao CJ is the best
For those who like beta stuff, Vadim M made a great video on the last Tenpenny missions recent. They basically have been heavily altered late in development, which explains their plot holes/inconsistencies. Also great video again Professional!
Among these stupid things, Helping OG LOC will be *"STUPIDEST''* and *"DUMBEST''* thing ever because CJ almost cost Mad Dogg career and his life, I'm glad that CJ realise his mistake and help him got what he supposed not to lose at the first place
That one is listed in the "5 evil thing CJ has done" video
I'm sure that half of Venturas helped CJ with the Caligula heist lol
I think the reason Carl went with Ken Rosenberg is because he’s a push over at times, which is where Mike Toreno’s final mission comes in, he wants to see if CJ will keep doing missions for him, but when CJ stands up for himself Mike decides to drop his collateral, now seeing that CJ has gotten past his flaw of not sticking to his guns at times. This could also be the case on why he still works for C.R.A.S.H. Or maybe I’m just reading way too into it. XD
Stealing a Leviathan helicopter from a military base, killing so many soldiers just to steal a security van was the dumbest mission of all times
In CJ defense, he tried to get out of seeing Johnny but Ken Begged him so hard lol
For number 2, I think the talk radio station mentions this after you complete Fish in a Barrel:
"Los Santos police officers Frank Tenpenny and Eddie Pulaski are being sought by government officials in order to stand trial for the murder of Ralph Pendelburry. The pair, whom prosecutors claim have masterminded a huge criminal organization, have disappeared."
“Damn, that ni**a fucked up” has me in stitches every time 😂
I got another one that people miss but it's challenging sweet after he gets out due to his poor leadership. Seriously it is literally implied that this was sweets fault from the beginning because he can't let go of the past. CJ despite sweet being his brother should have challenged him for leadership especially since at that point CJ has multiple connections and allies ready and willing that could make retaking the grove immensely easier. Sweet completely blows this off to hold brian over carl and refuses to accept some of the stuff CJ did as if they were not useful. Any good o.g. would see the potential and usefulness of having connection to both the triads and barrios los aztecas not to mention being in charge of mad dogs rap career is a consistent source of clean income. As soon as sweet calls me a buster I would have taken charge either by words of force because sweet is just too damn blind and stubborn.
Im sure Sweet slowly move on after the game ended
@@AnthroGearhead *CJ becomes a quadrillionaire* Sweet: You a perpetrator, Carl, running from what's real! *Grove now consists of two streets and a convenience store*
@@AndreNDP lmao
You know, if the story is realistic, its likely that Carl and Kendl are able to get their dumb founded brother and other members to leave the ghetto and make money elsewhere such as Mad Dogg's career, the car shop and dealership at San Fiero, or perhaps othet business that Carl have gotten
Tho i cant imagine the former grove boys looking after the airfield at the desert, imagine the damage cost later :v
Ohh yeah, and Denise
Sweet was so dumb with all respect.
Sweet and CJ relationship is the moment when I feel sorry for CJ. These two are opposite of me and my sister. When we love each other like sisters should. Sweet still hates CJ when he is the one who kinda forced him to leave.
He only scared Johnny HALF to death, CJ had to come back to finish the job. LOL
Good job on bringing older GTA lore videos relevant. Keep up these Great Lore videos 😃
This was so Worth the wait keep up the Amazing work Patrick
GTA V had some ridiculous places where heists were planned. The Merryweather Heist from Floyd and Debra's condo, which the only ones who knew about it besides the protagonists were Wade, Floyd, and Ron, the Paleto Score in Trevor's meth lab, and the Union Depository Heist in the Vanilla Unicorn "shoe store"
Well you have to remember it's Trevor he doesn't care about subtlety
Actually some of them weren't ridiculous the merryweather job in floyds and Debra's condo Trevor trashed the place then planned it good depending on the approach, the UD heist was in "Trevors" club as he killed the owner in the back room a spacious room very secluded from the outside.
the Jewel Store Heist in a sweatshop
And then we get to GTA online and you have to buy a whole arcade with a bat cave style secret facility in the basement to plan in. Or a fucking submarine.
Well our protagonists thinks too fast.
I think the reason they needed 4 bikes was to have back ups incase they got damaged before the heist such as spare parts or to replace on the spot. I am not saying they would be driving them around like normal bikes but in the event the garage they're stored in has an accident like someone backing into them or one has issues like a bad starter or some other issue they can hop on another one on the spot.
Pretty smart ngl
makes sense to me
Originally I thought the game maybe was supposed to be scripted to have 2 bikes in the back and 2 in the front but this is more compelling
I think CJ still did not trust Toreno, CJ had to see it through to see if Toreno will free sweet. He was holding on to that hope.
Too be honest I can't blame him. My girly intuition wouldn't trust him either.
Exactly. Toreno was involved in the Loco Syndicate.. and CJ would've killed him if Sweet wasn't released after all the crazy things CJ had done for him.
Tenpenny could've also just had CJ straight up murdered and destroyed his businesses in San Fierro had he not complied so he still had good reason to play along with their game
From a Doylist perspective, I think #5 is due to the developers wanting to have the two sets of casino missions (the yellow dragon missions for the main storyline and the dollar missions for the optional heist) clearly separate from each other, so that players didn't accidentally start the wrong mission. The heist missions had to take place in a separate room from the main storyline mission, and everything else came when the developers expanded that idea.
That's my impression. I've always found weird how the main storyline missions in the Doherty garage start in a spot near the accesible garages, and the optional Wang Cars start in a spot near the locked garages, at the exact opposite side. In the final game it's unnecessary because those sets of missions aren't available at the same time, but in the beta, the Wang Cars missions most likely were available right after Deconstruction.
Glad you pointed out at no.2 that CJ most likely didn't trust Toreno. You're right meeting Tenpenny was very stupid. However its been recently revealed another mission was planned where you would hide Hernandez's body presumably before CJ would get the dossier but it was scrapped. This mission would include a helicopter and a digging mini game.
The entire High Noon mission seemed like it was put together in a hurry. The cutscene ends and is acted out very oddly. How did Pulaski know Hernandez woke up could react like he did? And afterwards both CJ and Pulaski just awkwardly stand next to each other before Pulaski decides to run away while holding a gun and CJ unarmed. And to top it off Pulaski's AI pathing is prone to glitching pretty bad right at the beginning of the mission. I assume some things were suppose to happen much differently during the LV arc of the story but Rockstar started rushing.
I think the mission would've been much better if cj goes to tenpenny's hideout and he tells him that hernandez is acting very suspicious and cj has to meet him in a secluded spot but it turns into a ambush and there's cops everywhere and cj has to escape while chasing him but in the end it turns out Pulaski was behind the ambush and his plan was to kill both cj and hernandez I know it might break the lore of the game but I wish we could've got the grave digging mini game mission
I think it's less Pulaski knew Hernandez was gonna wake up and rather heard him get up and try charging towards him.
@@IkeFanBoy64 If you rewatch the scene Hernandez is fairly quiet. And CJ is even trying to stall Pulaski by taking longer to get out the hole he dug. Meanwhile Pulaski is literally yelling “Shut up scum! And it’s Officer Pulaski to you,fuckingdie” I don’t see anything implying Hernandez was loud enough to be heard and then shot dead in a split second. I still think it’s just a odd quickly put together cut scene.
@@trongray664 I dunno. Pulaski probably has good hearing.
@@IkeFanBoy64 😂😂 I guess so. That and a quick ass reaction time.
Woozie's office makes sense for heist planning. Because an office room can act as a war room for private meetings. CJ, on the other hand, should have thought better. Granted, because CJ's criminal experience is more on a street level, even though he has association with organized criminal organizations.
I think CJ still did the later CRASH missions since they’d know where Big Smoke is, they would still have friends in the departments that could give his friends trouble and maybe CJ was planning to deal with them but Tenpenny beat him to the punch.
The heist planning probably has the more the funny scenes in this game lol
I think the reason most of the stupid things in the game happen during the casino Heist is because like you said CJ's trying to make it like a movie Heist cuz he's never planned one before so he doesn't know what he's doing and he makes all these stupid mistakes even though he kind of gets lucky in it all ends up working in his favor anyway
I think the real reason CJ planned from the Maintenance room is for cometic relief.
You could also do a lore video on why Hernandez never speaks in the story (although he can, knowing from that phone call from the beginning). I've always wondered that
Everyone makes mistakes, even the most badass people and characters.
That's truth.
And your parents .
@@drippyog3935 What?
In regards to number 2, apparently that mission was originally intended to be completely different. Pulaski was probably intended to be killed off later, as the mission that was cut was about helping Tenpenny hide Hernandez’s body.
James Woods as Toreno is just a natural casting. Mr. Woods always makes villains monstrous.
Apparently there was a deleted CRASH mission where CJ was supposed to bury Hernandez in Tenpenny’s own personal car and you had to go to the airfield avoiding FBI and Sheriff Roadblocks and then a Swat chopper chases you and then you had to keep driving until the Helicopter lost fuel
And finally you had to do a minigame like the Lowrider and Dancing to bury Hernandez. The name of the mission is Chopper Overhead
stupidest thing was listening to sweet and going back to the hood
I feel like the heist mission should of been held at the abandoned airstrip instead of the casino xD. Also would love to see other GTA characters stupidest things they’ve done.
Every GTA protagonist does something stupid, whether it be an arrogant move, or a move done from inexperience. Niko killed Vlad, honestly believing that he and Roman wouldn’t suffer for it, Tommy purposely ignored Sonny’s request for the lost money and drugs, and in the end his fractured relationship with Sonny endangered everyone Tommy cared for, but even if Tommy didn’t have the money, giving sonny counterfeit cash was a very bad idea, Vic made one last cocaine deal which cost him his life, Johnny betrayed Ray Boccino, I’m sure there’s other examples.
That one about Niko killed Vlad. Wasn't totally that bad. Nobody didn't liked him because when Mikhail tells Niko if it's okay to kill his employees where Niko said "if he's an a*shold. Yes." fearless. which Mikhail agreed when he shot Andrei. he only had Vlad to cheat on his wife by f*cking his sister.
@@brandonperez8977 Not sure. It did put the Bellic cousins in great risk, and Niko was foolish to believe Mikhail wouldn’t take action. Plus Roman was shot as well. Niko also knew that Vlad was a high ranking member in the Russian Mafia. The situation caused Roman great stress and as such it wasn’t worth it. By taking revenge for Vlad’s humiliation of Roman and potentially removing Roman’s debt, he caused Roman more problems, and then trusting Dimitri led to Roman losing his cab business and apartment, which he worked hard to get. I’m not devaluing your opinion my friend, I’m just looking at it from a different perspective. Dimitri himself said in the alternate dialogue in “Do you have Protection” that, regardless of Vlad’s assholeness, his death angered Mikhail, likely because Niko defied his authority and perhaps due to respect he might have had for Vlad before he became hateful of the world around him.
@@justsomeguy747 well, most of this was Roman fault for gabbling with a bunch of criminals. he could have chosen a lottery ticket like some people do. The only reason why Mikhail was angry is because of Dimitri. TheProfessional made a lore video about Dimitri why is a pr*ck and that caused Mikhail to become an angry psycho
@@brandonperez8977 Maybe you’re right, maybe that was part of Dimitri’s manipulation. To lure Niko into a sense of security that he has his back and saved his life and then stab him in the back. I saw that video, it’s very interesting. Still though, Niko pulled the trigger on Vlad, in my opinion that made it worse. If Niko didn’t made the decision to shoot Vlad, the cousins wouldn’t have found themselves in Faustin’s basement. Niko himself admits that it is his fault. Roman chose to associate with criminals, but Niko also made bad choices, without caring for the consequences.
@@justsomeguy747 yeah, Niko doesn't care about himself since he had awful life when he was still young and just wanted to live a happy life. But he ended up being a veteran which he saw everyone he loved died and got involved in crime which he couldn't find a normal job after the war
Another thing about the casino heist planning that threw me off was the fact that CJ left the door open the whole time.
Seeing a mob boss you already scared isn't worst as invading a military depot alone, killing a lot of soldiers and droppring 2 hunter helicopters to rob another one for a mission who could be done with less effort. At this rate, if we were to think at his perspective, he could care less about it and, you said it yourself, it ended helping CJ to deal with the Sindaccos.
CJ's reaction to Johnny dying will never not make me laugh.
I'm a simple man: I see a top 5 video from TheProfessional, I hit the like button. 👍
The dumbest thing is that cj was talking to the dude about the casino heist imagine if some officer came or a casino guard they be pretty much fucked
Hey Professional, can you do a lore video on why Stretch from GTA 5 Joined the Ballas in jail and why he betrayed Lamar?
I find it funny how Johnny's guys didn't even try to help him, they just watched him have a massive heart attack and die like "just anuddah day at the office."
Cuz there's no such thing as strong loyalty in any mob family :p
@@AnthroGearheador maybe gang members are usually incompetent fools?
Something did went wrong on the heist, Zero bragged about it to Burkly.
One of the most stupidest things CJ has done is doing missions for Jeffrey Cross (OG Loc).
For me the stupidest thing CJ has ever done is to not follow the damn train
The maintenance room I think is just Rockstar joking around, since it's so obvious. So therefore the other guys find out about it, to make it funny iguess 🤷♂️
Carl spent too much time with Toreno/Truth
The thing about those bikes, i think they needed extra 2 just in case of a mechanical problem so its wise to have back ups, i dunno thats just me
I get your frustrations bro, but this is how the game created Carl Johnson, a literal puppet and weasel
I still laugh when I hear Carl saying "Woozie, I know you're a blind man, but you have to see this" lol
Your lore videos are my favorite videos to watch on this channel.
What’s even dumber than CJ going back to see Johnny is the fact Johnny was doing the dirty work himself. Why didn’t he have a random Sindacco goon to smash the machines
I think the whole maintenance room thing was really just some comic relief. It was kinda funny actually .. especially the dude saying he lives there 😂
8:23 I like to assume that because the janitor said nothing, he was actually capable of flying.
Yay!! I love these gta as lore videos! You are amazing the professional!!

Make a Top of worst things that Trevor did:
10. Almost selling a nuke to the chinese
9. Leaving Michael to the Triads
8. Turning Johnny and the Lost MC into meth addicts
7. Getting rid off the Lost, Aztecas, the O'Neill brothers and the Triads from the meth business in the countryside
6. Intimidating Floyd to borrow his apartment and then destroying it bit by bit
5. Leaving Floyd to be hit by Merryweather
4. Destroying the rest of the Lost Camp, during their heartbreaking loss of Johnny K
3. Making Debra to kick out Floyd from her apartment, making her also to kill Floyd
2. Manipulating Wade, hiding him the truth of what happened in Debra's apartment
1. Killing Johnny Klebitz and rest of the main characters from the Lost
Johnny was a bad man just like the losts so this is evil? I don't really think so.
@@princesslyna3207 the lost weren't evil, AOD were, besides the lost doesn't cannibalize people
@@Blackmorerainbowcatch With all respect but you're wrong. Losts are the same evil like Angels. You see them as these better ones because you play as them but in reality they treat women in the same way like Angels and they have no respect to human life. They like to hurt people and they think that they are better than everyone. Trevor only turned them into even worst people but they were already evil.
@@princesslyna3207 Well The AOD were racists, unlike the Lost who have also black bikers, like Jim and Clay.
@@ruben_zermeno Ah ok but still both are pretty evil.
I love your GTA lore videos keep up the great work!
Number 5 had me cracking up so much😂🤣🤣🥰. It cracks me up because I never looked at it that way, it makes so much sense to why it was stupid lmao. Woozie has a big ass Casino and out of all places, CJ picks the maintenance room, not even the basement. CJ never planned a heist before, so he copied off of movies that went horribly wrong is hilarious.
Then what made things worse was the "Key To The Heart" mission and he said: "Now I know you blind man, but you gotta see this," then continue to show pictures to Woozie, when he clearly can't see and it's just the two of them💀. It's funny being the brother who's a better leader than Sweet in the hood, but you would think that he would plan a heist more brightly 😂
CJ planning the casino heist in the maintenance room might be stupid but it's so great for comedic writing lol
Blackmailing CJ with Pendelbery's murder never made sense, he actually was at the airport arriving in SA at this moment (or even still in LC), the evidence for that should be at the airport security tapes, even Carl's ticket could've played that role
Tenpenny had to make an excuse since he was the one who killed him in the introduction by forcing Hernandez to finish him off
Exactly.
Its open and shut case, really. All the evidence would easily exonerate a black street rat accused of being a cop killer--
wait.
Haven't black dudes been convicted for less? And isn't America satirized in GTA?
As for the Tenpenny thing. I think based on Tenpennys character if cj crossed him he'd hurt one of his family members or friends. Toreno might be watching sweet but he probably wouldn't protect the rest. Better to deal with Tenpenny than have him in the wind.
This is the kind of videos we are here for!!!
As I said on the "top things that make no sense" video. Getting the Sky crane helicopter would make sense, because infrared laser security was a thing even back then.
Now, an argument can be made that security like that would be present at the helicopter location too, but you'll still give the investigators a harder time. The fewer ties to your crew, the better.
For me it’s working for Tenpenny even after gaining Toreno as an ally
I agree, in my opinion Rockstar should have focused more on the street element. It’s goofy that a gang member whose whole inspiration is putting his gang back on the map would be doing any of these weird missions. The could have introduced the other cities in the game by expanding the gang into other cities starting gang wars and control over the drug trade. That’s just my opinion though.
Can you do a lore video on Ryder? Because he's the most underappreciated character in the game.
There's really not much since his voice actor MC eiht quit and rockstar killed him off
Under appreciated? He’s like one of the most popular characters of this game behind CJ and Big Smoke
CJ is probably the most dense gta character. And we love him for it
Most famous line in gaming history....

Love the lore videos man. Keep up the great work.
Yeah! More GTA San Andreas lore videos! Good work btw.😃
CJ: Aww s*** here we go again.
this topic is great and glad you talked more about this game
Rosenberg could've asked CJ why he doesn't want to come with him to meet up with Johnny.
Hey man. Thank you for making me go through my closet to find my copy of san andreas. Im playing it on pcsx2 right now. Been having a blast.
I love the little detail of Woozie having his head down to pay attention to Carl while he describes the plan, didn't catch that before.
With number 2, could he have met up with them to take an opportunity to take out Tenpenny himself? Or maybe he figured Hernandez would help him since he knows Tenpenny's corrupt and trying to expose him.
Rockstar: yes but we want Carl Johnson to keep being a moron here so screw your opinions ♡
My respect for Rockstar is very low becuz of this
@@AnthroGearhead really? Just because of this? Not the bs they did with rdo and the gta trillogy? Lol
@@Jiibayaabooz 😁 these too
I seen a comment like this earlier. I just don't think killing Tenpenny after already killing the multiple witnesses and DEA agents that were gonna actually testify against him would go well. At least at that time. Hernandez would probably trick CJ and try to turn him in since he was the only cop there that was all about justice. So I don't think working with Hernandez would work. The timing to kill tenpenny in the desert just wasn't right imo as crazy as that sounds.
I agree more with Professional. Cut ties with Tenpenny over the phone and leave the dossier somewhere or just keep it as leverage and see how Tenpenny responds. At the end of the game it seemed more reasonable to kill Tenpenny knowing the whole city was against him and seeing the system failed to convict him.
One of the worst things Rockstar has done.
1 Making CJ look stupid.
2 Boring female characters.
3 Devin Weston.
4 GTA Trilogy remaster.
5 Turning Johnny into Billy Gray.
6 Creating too much stuff for GTA online.
7 I don't have more examples for now but probably I forgot about something.
Funny how all the dumb things CJ did were in latter half of the game, Specifically in Las Ventures. 😂😂
You know professional, I will go ahead and nicely argue with you on number 4
I think number 4 actually makes sense because when if one or two of the cop bikes happen break down? Having a spare or two is good so the heist still goes as planned
CJ is also lucky that Tenpenny and Pulaski let their sadism get the best of them. They waited way too long to finish off Carl in the desert. If this was a no nonsense nemesis, CJ would have been immediately finished off. Tenpenny's sadistic tendencies actually backfire on him at times. This is also the same reason of how Niko was able to beat Dimitri at the end and Tommy was able to beat Sonny in the final mission.
I think for #2 that CJ might have went there to have an opportunity to kill Tenpenny but he left beforehand, so he killed Pulaski instead. There's also the theory that tenpenny knew that cj would be capable of killing pulaski as well so all witnesses to his crimes are gone (and CJ wasn't gonna snitch)
Good point. I don't think many people realize that CJ isn't gonna report Tenpenny and Pulaski because he doesn't like the feds and mentioned he would rather die than snitch. Plus it could backfire. If CJ tells the authorities about Tenpenny and Pulaski he would basically be turning himself in as he already commits multiple murders for them. Also its implied there were many more corrupt cops on Tenpenny's side that would probably just fuck over CJ instead.
The main one is trusting big smoke and Ryder after clearly they showed signs of being suspicious individuals
Ryder never showed any signs (probably because his betrayal was a last-minute addition).
Anyway, the reason is likely that CJ felt guilty for abandoning his homies for 5 years, and tried to make amends for it, becoming a yes-man for everyone related to the Families (and that included Smoke and OG Loc).
What happened to CJ after GTA San Andreas my theory is that CJ is still living in Los Santos out of loyalty to his brother Sweet and the rest of the Grove Street Families. At the very end of the game, Carl is a young and wealthy man. His assets and business interests include the Grove Street Families gang and Madd Dogg's contract in Los Santos, a car garage and several other properties in San Fierro, and shares in the Four Dragons Casino in Las Venturas so I see CJ buying out Sweet and Kendl and is living in the Johnson House got married and have children of his own. Mostly likely Mike Toreno would of talk CJ into returning the government's $60 million jetpack.
Ahh yes the jetpack, 60 million dollar of what exactly ? That looks more like 50,000$ item, man the corruption is amazing
@@AnthroGearhead looks like but the resources were most likely a LOT more expensive
@@IMNTV the furst jetpack was invented in the 1960s and didnt cost more than 300,000$ to design and built one, this particular mission just retarded
R/D costs is a wonderful thing
i doubt toreno wouldve cared about the jetpack
“Hey are u pointing again!” “Aw my bad”
Godly dialogue
The last one broke my heart like everytime i see this scene i feel so emotionally sad
I want to see a video of some of the stupidest things Lamar Davis has done. It will be a good one.
do way more GTA SA LORE and character breakkdowns love your vids!
CJ has done a lot of stupid things, considering so many things were cut from the game so this game makes no sense whatsoever.
Love these lore videos!
Stupidest thing was to let Sweet continue to berate him. At some point CJ should've let him know how much he had to go through just to get him out of jail. How Cesar was the one who looked out for him. Not Ryder and Smoke. And lastly, telling Sweet that if he wanted to be some poor dude from the hood, don't drag his family, who was moving onto better things, down with him.
I love your vids, greetings from Argentina 🇦🇷
1. Not following the damn train
I hated that mission where you steal the police bikes.
I love these lore videos so much. Idk if it's possible but would love to see similar style vids for gta IV. Like, evil/good things Niko has done. Although Niko's character has been so carefully designed, it may be hard to find much. But would love to see if possible. If not Niko, maybe Johnny or louiz. :))
he made video about Dimitri and Michelle, you should check them out
Tenpenny when Twentypenny walks in
