DIY Limb Lengthening in GTA V:
1. Gathering Tools and Supplies
- Tools:
- Power Tools: A circular saw or chainsaw, which the character might use for cutting the bone. This is highly exaggerated and impractical in real life but fits the game’s over-the-top style.
- Duct Tape and Zip Ties: Used for making makeshift braces and supports.
- Wrenches and Pliers: For tightening or adjusting the contraption.
- Metal Rods and Bicycle Parts: Salvaged from a junkyard or the garage, repurposed for the lengthening device.
- Car Jack or Hydraulic Lift: Used to “stretch” the limb by creating tension, adding to the absurdity of the setup.
- Medical Supplies: A first aid kit, which would be humorously inadequate for the situation.
- Considerations:
- Sterilization: In true GTA fashion, the character might skip this step, using dirty tools and makeshift antiseptics like whiskey or cheap cleaning supplies.
- Blueprints: Scrawled on a greasy pizza box or the back of an old magazine, with nonsensical sketches and measurements.
2. The Procedure
- Preparation:
- Anesthesia: The character might attempt to self-administer anesthesia using a mix of whiskey or other in-game substances, leading to humorous effects like impaired coordination and slurred speech.
- Bone Cutting: Using the circular saw or chainsaw, the character attempts to cut through the bone. This would be portrayed with exaggerated, cartoonish effects—sparks flying, loud noises, and dramatic expressions of pain.
- Lengthening Mechanism:
- Contraption Assembly: The character attaches metal rods and bicycle parts to their leg, securing them with duct tape and zip ties. They use a car jack or hydraulic lift to slowly “stretch” the limb, leading to comical and improbable results.
- Adjustments: They make frequent, clumsy adjustments, often causing the contraption to fall apart or malfunction, resulting in slapstick humor and chaos.
3. Post-Procedure and Recovery
- Recovery Phase:
- Bracing: The character uses additional duct tape and makeshift splints made from wooden planks or broomsticks to stabilize the lengthened limb. The splints are hilariously inadequate, leading to unstable walking.
- Physical Therapy: They attempt exercises using household items like a vacuum cleaner for resistance training or a rubber band for stretching. These exercises are comically ineffective and may lead to unintended consequences.
