This GTA 5 video shows you the magic of semi truck tricks
Just when you thought every possible weird thing to do for fun in GTA 5 had been covered, along come trailer tricks: disconnecting a truck trailer at high speed then using C4 to send it sailing back onto your trailer hitch (preferably over a bridge or other low-hanging obstacle). The latest extreme electronic sport is both introduced and perfected in this new video from prolific GTA YouTuber BlackSmoke Billy, with help from a few key mods.
The video starts off with a beautifully executed 10-4-good-buddy flip in slow motion, heads downtown for an astounding 360 Smokey, and finishes off with a nail-biting Bandit wall ride. You really have to admire the level of athleticism on display here, even if trailer tricking probably won't get its much-deserved Olympic recognition until Tokyo 2020 at the earliest.

I got a BA in journalism from Central Michigan University - though the best education I received there was from CM Life, its student-run newspaper. Long before that, I started pursuing my degree in video games by bugging my older brother to let me play Zelda on the Super Nintendo. I've previously been a news intern for GameSpot, a news writer for CVG, and now I'm a staff writer here at GamesRadar.
