Every Reference To Real-Life Videos In The 'Grand Theft Auto VI' Trailer
Besides introducing the main characters and showing us the new, modern Vice City, the recently released Grand Theft Auto VI trailer also includes a montage of bizarre occurrences happening across the city and the larger state of Leonida where it's located, including a woman twerking on top of a driving car, a naked man running from a police officer at a gas station, a news report showing a tattooed criminal looking much like Joker and more.
These seemingly random events are not that random after all, as each one was inspired by a viral video filmed in Florida, a comparison montage compiled by IGN reveals.
