The GTA Online subreddit is always full of players posting tips, tricks, and memes. More often than not, there are some pretty funny fails on the page. One such video was posted by Reddit user u/zeezaheer.

When the Redditor customized his Nightshark with the chrome paint job option, a very interesting thing happened. The light from the sun reflected on his vehicle and hit the screen.

He uploaded the post with the caption: "Get chrome they said; it'll be fun they said", being sarcastic about the paint job being a good idea. The reflection of the sunlight left a blinding glare on the screen, which hurt the eyes, and the GTA Online Reddit community took over in the comments.
