History YMMV / AchievementHunterGrandTheftAutoSeries

* HilariousInHindsight: One part of the "Heist" mini-series was called "The Prison Job," which required the gang to break Geoff out of prison. When the actual GTAV heists were released, one of them was called "The Prison Break," which required 4 players to break Rashkovsky out of prison. The gang even lampshade this.

*** Ryan still gets credit here however as it's shown that he [[spoiler: [[SpannerInTheWorks actually KNEW that Michael had rigged the car bomb]] and planned to fake his death and track down and kill Michael and Gavin. Considering that the car bomb WAS Michael's backup plan and [[Didn'tSeeThatComing he had no plans for what to if it failed]], it's likely that Ryan would have OutGambitted Michael once again. The only reason this fails is because Ryan get's killed during the firefight. Something that neither Ryan or Michael had any control over]].[[note]]Michael may have WANTED Ryan to die in that firefight, but it was ultimately up to luck whether or not he actually got his wish.[[/note]]

* MorePopularSpinOff: The "Heist" videos were meant to be a one-off mini-series to AH's ''Let's Play GTA V'' that worked around the lack of real heists in ''GTA Online'', but the amount of fan art, fan-created trailers, and the number of tropes on its main page suggest otherwise.

* RewatchBonus: Go back and watch [[http://king-rye-bread.tumblr.com/post/86278412082/rewatching-michaels-heist-and-i-have-to-say-the Ryan]] at the beginning of "Michael's Heist". [[spoiler:Although it didn't stop him from being killed during the actual Heist, he figures out that Michael plans on double-crossing him and Ray.]]

* HilariousInHindsight: One part of the ''Heist'' mini-series was called ''The Prison Job,'' which required the gang to break Geoff out of prison. When the actual GTAV heists were released, one of them was called ''The Prison Break,'' which required 4 players to break Rashkovsky out of prison. The gang even lampshade this.

** Let's Play GTA V, Chopper vs Chopper. The game goes completely and totally off the rails during the last 10 minutes of the video. [[StuffBlowingUp So many bullets flying and cars and helicopters exploding that you wouldn't believe it.]] Once the packages are actually collected, [[CrazyAwesome it starts to look like an action movie with the players skillfully dodging helicopter fire on motorcycles.]]

* CrossedTheLineTwice: A standard for Achievement Hunter, but "The Prison Job" pseudo-heist has a running gag about Geoff's dealing with PrisonRape. While it could have easily crossed into DudeNotFunny, especially to fans who don't find BlackComedyRape amusing at all, it somehow ends up completely hilarious thanks to Geoff's performance combined with the ridiculous prison names he and his cellmate have ('Sex-Butt' and 'Big-Dong' respectfully).

* DudeNotFunny: Some might find Kerry's hazing in the ''Let's Play Grand Theft Auto V'' episode "Enter the Dragonface" as being tantamount to bullying, especially since apparently [[spoiler:he has been kicked out of Fake AH Crew weeks later, so it appears that it was all for naught]]. Worse, [[spoiler:[[HateDumb at least twenty people liked the Rockstar Games Social Club status update that announced Kerry's removal from the crew]]]]. At least, however, he still makes recurring appearances in the series.
* EarWorm: Near the end of "Achievement Knievel" when they pull off the "money shot", everyone shouts with whoas and woo-hoos, and Ryan yells his now-(in)famous "I'm still in the air!" line upon being launched high into the sky by Jack's jet. That line and everyone's shouting was replayed ''five more times in a row''.

* HolyShitQuotient: A few episodes from ''Let's Play GTA IV'' have a ''very high'' HSQ. These episodes being the "Cops n' Crooks", "Witness Protection", "Lone Wolf Biker", "Wanted", "Wanted X" and "Best Stunt Ever".

** Ryan tries to be one in the Heist videos by [[spoiler:secretly planning to kill everyone and take the money in the first "Heist" and wanting to shoot Ray so he can be the last person alive with the money in his "Heist".]] Keyword being [[EpicFail "tries".]]

* MorePopularSpinOff: The "Heist" videos were meant to be a mini-series to AH's ''Let's Play GTA V'' that worked around the lack of real heists in ''GTA Online'', but the amount of fan art, fan-created trailers, and the number of tropes on its main page suggest otherwise.

* MemeticMutation[=/=]NeverLiveItDown: Ryan's "I'm still in the air!" line from "Achievement Knievel", though he didn't say that phrase ''that'' often.[[note]]He only said the line once during the "Achievement Knievel" video, which spawned the meme. The footage of the final stunt in the video, however, included the perspectives of all involved (repeating the audio for each Hunter's perpective shown), and Ryan's line was at the end of every perspective.[[/note]]

** [[spoiler Michael himself]] in "Michael's Heist", who planned to [[spoiler:get everyone except Gavin killed by planning out every way everyone could die.
