GTA 5 is a game that players will cherish for the rest of their lives. Sometimes players are looking for a different type of experience. Gamers play games to live in fantasy worlds and experience things they don't get to experience otherwise.

Even GTA 5 has its limits with the kinds of experiences players can get from it, and that's where GTA 5 mods come into play.

GTA mods make the game whatever the players want it to be. It can sometimes add a few features and even change the whole game. The Tsunami mod in GTA 5 changes a lot about the game.

Back in 2004, a huge tsunami emerged from the Indian Ocean. It was one of the first time many people had heard of such a thing. Around 6 years later the incident led to a myth which stated that Vice City, which is based on Miami, got hit by a tsunami in the game.

The story of a Mega Tsunami began in Vice City where one player posted videos of the event on youtube. The origin of the Mega Tsunami myth dates back to the video series by MrRiley365, and it was very believable that such an event could occur.
