Alex is a genuine master in commentary. Gripping but never shouty, always talking yet never filling the air, usually SFW but without ever giving the feeling of watering down his words, putting genuine effort into a challenge but never taking things too seriously, always composed without being apathetic, and I could go on. One of those cases where if you think you can do what he does no sweat you're either great or wrong.
*Notes from a Taskmaster:* - Amy _did_ make Alex drunk but the game failed to do so. She also made Ewan drunk. Maybe it cancelled out the first. Who knows - I don't know how I missed him stealing the second car, but I guess I did while sorting out other tasks on another screen. Oops - I had no idea he was going to be at the airport (which is where I had placed the sled at the very start), he just happened to be in the right place at the end
the fact that this happened on Alex's channel, who is probably the most family friendly youtuber i know, makes it so funny. It caught me so super off-guard because this is NOT the type of thing we're used to hear in STH, or any of his videos for that matter. Perhaps the videos where he discusses the hunt, and only because of the crew.
1:16:32 I love the truck that's overloaded with logs, which can't make clearance under the overpass -- and I love even more that the truck spawns _after_ another overpass that it wouldn't have made clearance on in the first place.
Quite frankly one of the best StHs I have seen. And I watched them all. The possibilities 5M offers add a lot of variety and fun to the already fun gamemode.
Indeed. And with the recent GTA racing that they've been doing using 5M to use custom maps, I wonder how complete the surrounding city areas are; I have been noticing lots of builds and side streets, though it's hard to tell if there is anything really beyond what can be seen visually from the circuits. If any of those maps are complete, then it might be an interesting idea to try them for StH.
This was super intense. The discussion for this one is going to be wild; "He's at the airport! He's at the airport!" "Wait what... there's a sled flying at me!" "WHATTTT"
I recognize that exact logging trailer (as in the logs are oriented the exact same way) as a mod for that truck in snowrunner. Its not even overloaded, just the truck was never designed to drive on paved roads in the first place.
You can also see it happen for about 2 frames at 46:28, the truck goes under a road sign and you can see the front of it go up in the air and hear the collision noise XD
lol I'm tempted to expand this now... "Oh The First Task of FailRace that Longbow gave to me... get a Sticky Bomb to Blow up a Pri(us)" Any ideas for the other days?
I think a good idea for STH is like a cat and mouse style one. Two groups and two runner. The hunters have to protect their runner and kill the other. There are some minor details that depend on the style people want. For fiveM you can have it so the hunters see each other like with the pris and can try and sabotage with the risk of being caught
I'd rather just see two groups hunting each other. 48 minutes, and the group with the most survivors wins. Also, use the whole map for that. Each team and each player has to decide whether it's better to stay in the city where they can blend in, or go into the country (because it might be unexpected, and therefore safer) or to find people hiding there. Vehicles should be randomized, meaning some players might be in fast cars or armoured trucks, or tanks or golf carts, helicopters or boats. Even submarines. Hiding at the bottom of the ocean means you'll probably survive, but it also means you won't have the opportunity to kill anybody else. And all weapons are allowed for everybody.
Nice Regina 6x6, "Your car makes me wet." LMAO FLOOR That couldn't be more accurate for a Regina. Then Poor Longbow lol. Geez, so sudden getting shot lol. Nice Santa's sleigh. Top speed, only 716mph LOL That was a perfect STH!
6:50-That's the first time I've heard an NPC say THAT! This was an exceptionally well done and very fun to watch. I also enjoyed the extra long hunt and vote for more to last more than an hour. This was the perfect length IMO. Also, I vote for a new rule; every episode Alex MUST, at some point during the episode but at least before ending the episode, destroy the blimp.
Ngl i like it more when there are no time limit, makes it feel like there is at least a goal, while the 24hrs version kinda doesn’t.. yes he blow up some cars, but in the end it doesn’t matter if he blows up all of them or none of them
they actually did take the Model A offroad back in the day, wildly enough. There's video of them taking long convoys of As and Ts and the like through nearly virgin terrain.
It's funny how people claim they're truck of logging trucks because of the movie, yet still drive on motorway and find themselves driving behind a truck.
A suggestion good sir! If they are using the back of a vehicle to stop being shot, go for the tires. Losing both back tires would make it undriveable and take them out of the fight for a short time.
They were using it mostly as a way to know where Alex was in the shootout though. Sure it would've been undrivable in a chase, but you can be driving on rims and still move around to follow someone that's on foot.
It was more the fact we don't know if we will end up getting him or if he escapes. Getting tires is better when he's been spotted in traffic and shoots us to get us out the chase and try to confuse us where he's gone. Like others said, it's more to see where he is and I don't believe Vyper realised it was bulletproof at first haha
@@Shad0s OTOH, having lost the tires, that vehicle would be useless once Alex grabs a car. Provides a really good incentive to go fix while the others shoot at him.
how quickly Alex forgets about the insanity that is the Karin Off-Road :( _e: forgot the s in insanity, and only now have I realized how much weight the s carries in that word in this context_
There is ever the possibility that maybe we filmed the Random race and StH in a different order to their release dates. But you didn't hear that from me, blame Rhett
Merry Christmas Alex and the whole Failrace Team! I've been watching you and your friends videos for years and will continue to watch them! God bless and happy holidays!!
GOSH!!! Ive seen all of STH.. Love everyone of them.. cant wait for the 1st of each month :D haha.. best day ever! I hope these continue for the rest of my life! haha
Hey Alex, one thing i suggest being conscience about is the headlights/headlamps and toggling them down to low beam, for example at timestamp 55:55, your lights were on high beam compared to the other cars around you. That will also get you caught out.
If there was ever a hunt for which I'd love to hear the hunters reaction to, while watching this video (including Alex's commentary), it would be this one. Pretty sure everyone was either involved in a chase, shot some bullets at Alex, and was on screen to kick themselves for missing Alex's presence, at least once. It'd be hilarious to count the number of "THAT WAS HIM?!?" that would result, along with all the colourfull language. Maybe during the christmas/New-Years livestream or something. Sure, some hunters probably watch these videos whenever they come out, but I doubt all of them do. A few first reactions would probably be pretty funny.
_"Tonight, the holidays are coming... directly after Alex in eighteen wheelers! This is FailRace, where it's Survive The Hunt time on GTA V, so expect the usual chaos to include:_ * 32:10 _"The Grinch has a date with fate._ * 55:44 _"There's heavy off-road traffic downtown._ * 14:44 _"And Alex receives an early Christmas present."_
The most chaotic survive the hunt with themed tasks and epic chases from start to finish, with Alex breaking the supercar rule without him knowing silly him
The big fast & furious truck (the wastelander) is actually pretty fast, definitely one of the stronger picks for this for sure! Edit: The offroad paragon (bentley conti gt) is the 2nd fastest off road, the 1st being the off road PR4
I don't know if it's something you can change, but it seems with FiveM that the characters you spawn as have minimum stats. So stamina and lung capacity are really terrible. There are a few more niche aspects to higher stats, but those are the main ones thatt seem most annoying
Amazing Christmas video, this video spread so much Christmas cheer to anyone who might need a little extra festivities. Truly, I appreciate EVERYONE at FailRace who made this video doable, and possible on FiveM!!! 🥳🥳🥳
Another great STH, i love the variety of the modded GTA traffic. Also, on vanilla GTA, the Schafter V12 is way faster than the Comet Safari btw. And o a sidenote, the Youga Classic 4x4 van is not actually 4wd

Right, at some point, he was in a high speed chase, and would say the most interesting details about the driving, like Alex, how do you do it?!
He's a complete natural, makes it sound so effortless but anybody who's ever done anything like it knows it's so hard

6:51, I know you said to marvel at the engineering of the 6x6 but damn, she got really excited about it.

@@jamesstevenson9056 basically means 6-wheel drive
@@anaveragejoe4869 I know. Still kinda confusing though.
It means all 6 wheels have power driven directly to them, 6x6. You could have 3 axles with 6 wheels but only one axle has power, 6x2 and etc.

I think this is the one and only time ever you will see Alex voluntarily and happily grab a Regina to drive.
1:00:13 you have to admit, the cooling ticks from the engine are a really nice touch
I know right? You don't see that in too many games, but it's such a nice little detail that makes the world just that bit more immersive.
