Video: These guys created a pretty cool underwater documentary… in GTA V

Some people have far too much time on their hands…

Some people have far too much time on their hands…

We have all watched a David Attenborough wildlife documentary at one stage or another and found ourselves totally entranced by things we never had any interest in. You know, weird fish and stuff…

We never found ourselves consciously thinking that we would like to see a deep sea documentary about the oceanic life around the mythical cities of Los Santos and Blaine County in GTA V, but somebody out there has taken the time to explain it to us anyway.

The guys over at 8-Bit B*stard have created this pretty cool video game documentary in GTA V and even narrated, very professionally, over the footage. It is definitely worth a few minutes of your time…

We warn you to take some of the findings in the video with a pinch of salt as it is from a video game after all and the makers did include this little warning; “Some people have been saying our wildlife documentary isn’t totally accurate – of course it isn’t. We’re not professional wildlife researchers, we’re idiots who play computer games. Enjoy!”

We are not sure why the gamers went to such effort to create the entirely pointless documentary but we are glad they did because it turned out to be pretty darn cool.
