Targeted Risk

“Targeted Risk” is the third mission in the Dom Beasley Extreme Sports series in Grand Theft Auto V. In this mission, Franklin teams up with Dom again to parachute from a plane and land on a moving flatbed truck, upping the ante for precision and danger. This mission pushes Franklin to perform one of the most difficult stunts yet.

After the success of the last mission, Dom contacts Franklin for yet another extreme sports challenge. This time, the goal is to parachute from an aircraft and land on a moving truck below. Timing and control are critical as Franklin must hit the moving target while avoiding obstacles and maintaining control of the parachute.

Objectives

• Meet Dom at the designated location near Vinewood Hills.
• Get into the plane and take off with Dom.
• Jump from the plane and parachute toward the moving flatbed truck.
• Land safely on the truck to complete the mission.

Setting

The mission takes place over the roads of Vinewood Hills and Blaine County. Players start by boarding a plane with Dom, then perform a high-altitude jump from the aircraft. The challenge comes from landing on a moving truck that’s speeding down the road. The environment is filled with scenic views but requires precise maneuvering to avoid failure.

Objective 1: Meet Dom

• Go to the Location: The mission begins when Franklin meets Dom at an airstrip near Vinewood Hills. Dom is preparing for another parachute stunt, this time from a moving plane.
• Dialogue: Dom explains the new challenge: jumping from the plane and landing on a moving flatbed truck as it speeds along the roads below.

Objective 2: Get into the Plane

• Board the Plane: After the conversation, Franklin and Dom board the plane, which takes off into the sky, giving players a scenic view of Los Santos as they ascend to jumping altitude.
• Prepare for the Jump: Once the plane reaches a suitable altitude, Franklin prepares to jump, with Dom reminding him to focus on the moving truck below.

Objective 3: Parachute to the Truck

• Jump from the Plane: Franklin jumps from the plane and deploys his parachute. The goal is to control Franklin’s descent while keeping the moving flatbed truck in view.
• Control the Parachute: Timing and accuracy are critical here. Players need to adjust Franklin’s descent to match the speed and movement of the truck, avoiding any obstacles along the way.

Objective 4: Land on the Flatbed Truck

• Hit the Target: Successfully landing on the moving truck completes the challenge. Missing the target will result in mission failure, and Franklin will need to try again.
• Celebrate with Dom: After the landing, Franklin and Dom share another moment of adrenaline-fueled celebration as Dom boasts about their success and hints at the next challenge.

Mission Conclusion

• Cutscene: A cutscene will play after landing on the truck, where Dom excitedly praises Franklin for pulling off another dangerous stunt. Dom continues to push for bigger and riskier challenges, leaving Franklin wondering what will come next.
• Rewards: Completing the mission unlocks further extreme sports challenges with Dom and grants a small cash reward.

• This mission tests players’ ability to control Franklin’s parachute more precisely than previous Missions, as the moving truck adds an additional challenge.
• Dom continues to push Franklin to the limits with each mission, with the stakes and risks increasing each time.
• The name “Targeted Risk” is a play on the financial term, humorously nodding to the danger of hitting a moving target in the mission.
