Hilarious Reddit video shows an Acid Lab blowing up a Hydra in GTA Online
On December 31, 2022, Redditor u/iwearshoes21 shared a video titled "The acid lab is a great vehicle to take out hydras" in the GTA Online subreddit. In the clip, they can be seen fleeing from the police in the MTL Brickade 6x6 with a three-star wanted level.
The player passed through the Bert's Tool Supply Co. store on the corner of Crusade Road in Strawberry, continued straight down the road, and jumped into the Los Santos Storm Drain in Las Mesa.
Meanwhile, another player named Quezt7 was already present down in the storm drain and was attempting to take off with their Mammoth Hydra. The Brickade 6x6 was tossed into the air, rolled sideways, and landed directly on the Hydra's right wing. While the Acid Lab survived the fall, the jet fighter instantly exploded, killing the pilot.

While the situation was funny enough, costing player Quezt7 their life and the aircraft, other GTA Online players made several comments quoting hilarious pop culture references.
