I am trying to compile a list of them to experiment with offline.

I know of a few areas like the one where you are on the roof of the building and walk toward the radiator fan on the wall and it just pushes you off the building into a wasted screen. What are some other areas that are similar to this that cause insta death or glitchy behavior in the game?

I don't think this works online but I never tried. It does work during the story mode though.

You go to the spot on the map. There is a small space you can drive into past the "no loitering" signs where it puts you up against a highway bridge. You climb up on your car to access the ledge and walk in the direction of the trash can until you can access a point where you can jump and climb up. It puts you "inside" the map and hidden inside the bridge. You just jump into the gray zone to leave it.

The only ones I was aware of online have been fixed. I know there was one with the recent raid update but they already patched it. It was an easy way to complete it. I did not get a chance to try it cause it was patched so fast.

I have experienced a number of them but I don't track them to give you a direct location. Next time I do happen upon one, I will post it on here but it has been awhile since I have come across one. Likely do to patches.

I am going to have to check this out. I will try it online after I can get it working in the story.

I know there is a similar one like this somewhere on the map. I am just having a hard time remembering where it is. I saw it in a video a few years back.

I always thought the edge of the ocean was glitchy when I first tried to sail away from the city. Then after some updates a huge shark just killed me. Turns out those are GTA's way to keep us inside the border. smh.

In the middle of the city, there will randomly be cars that just shoot up 10 feet in the air or they appear to be falling from the sky. I don't know if they ever fixed this but I stopped paying attention to it as much.

NPCs can’t seem to enter a specific hallway near Franklin’s house on Grove Street. They just stop and refuse to go any further, which can create some odd traffic patterns and situations.

If you use the dressing room in Binco Clothing store, you’ll become invincible. It’s a fun glitch for testing out invincibility in a safe environment. Just be cautious not to break any missions with this.

The Sentinel is technically a two-seater, but it actually has four seats. Despite the extra space, NPCs will only use the front seats. It’s a small detail that can lead to some strange scenarios in the game.

During the ‘Eye in the Sky’ mission, if you hang up on Molly’s call, Trevor will continue his dialogue as if the call is still active. It’s an interesting quirk that keeps the conversation going.

Here’s a trick for glitching into trailers: use a bulldozer to lift and drop a trailer while a friend spams jump. You’ll end up in some pretty amusing and unexpected locations, making for some fun exploration.

If you fail to grab the golf club during a mission, you’ll end up with permanent police attention until you pick it up. It’s a unique way the game keeps you on your toes.

try the birdige glitch people. man it's been a long time since i played and haven't memorized all the names before. but if you want to just go ahead and shoot all cars that pass by you can do this and get in side a bridge, glitch your way into it.

In the ‘The Big Score’ mission, the mission won’t progress if the cage doors are intact, even if they’re knocked over. Allies can also die if they’re moved into the cages, adding a layer of complexity to the mission.

Fires tend to last longer if you have a firetruck deployed at the location. It’s a small gameplay detail that affects how you manage fire outbreaks in the game.

Have you ever tried to interact with Lester while you have a wanted level? If you’re in a situation where you can't start a cutscene because of the cops, Lester will stand there awkwardly. You can actually push him around if this happens! It's a fun little glitch that makes the scene quite amusing.

Check out the back windows of Franklin’s safe house. They render everything outside in low quality, which can be quite jarring when you’re in the Rockstar Editor. It’s a subtle detail but can affect how your shots look if you’re not careful.

If you get tased while walking off the front of a train, you’ll experience a strange glitch where you get suspended in mid-air for a moment. It’s a weird visual effect that can make for some funny moments in your gameplay.

In GTA V, if your car is leaking fuel, you’ll actually see the fuel gauge decrease over time. If the leak is severe, it can eventually render the car non-functional. It’s a subtle mechanic that adds to the realism of the game.
