Grand Theft Auto 5 fans will be aware of who Ned Luke is. For those of you who don't, he plays Michael in the game's campaign, and frequently streams himself playing GTA Online for his fans, sharing little tidbits about development, mocap acting, and other interesting insights that only the actor behind a beloved GTA character could tell you.

Unfortunately, due to how famous he is among the GTA community, and how frequently he streams, GTA Online fans usually know when he's streaming and go out of their way to make his streams as chaotic as physically possible. Reddit user EvaInTheUSA recently captured and shared a couple of minutes of one of Luke's recent streams, and the chaos that follows him is enough to make any GTA Online fan log out and never come back.

The clip sees Luke taking a boat to a Salvage Yard, with several other players in hot pursuit. Luke eventually reaches the charred remains of a different boat, implying that this isn't the first time he's attempted this mission, after which he's slammed into by a detached semi-truck. Out for revenge, Luke gets out of his car, equips an RPG, and this is where the true chaos begins.

Ned Luke’s (Michael) streams are fucking something else man.

The rest of the clip is essentially made up of nothing but explosions, police sirens blaring in the background, and all kinds of ridiculous vehicles driving past him and flying overhead. Luke eventually gets wasted amid the chaos, and a nice player gives him a lift back to the scene of the crime where his boat is still intact.

Things somehow get even wilder though, as more and more players descend upon Luke's location to add to the madness. Cars explode, people die en masse, and Luke's boat is eventually flipped upside down and destroyed, all the while he's sitting there with a completely normal expression on his face, as if things like this happen on a regular basis.

And according to a fan of Luke's streams in the Reddit posts thread, they pretty much do. In fact, Luke supposedly enjoys how chaotic things can get in GTA Online whenever he plays, so we can only assume that this man has the inner peace of a monk in order to not be affected at all by the constant noise that follows him around. It's nice that it's all light-hearted though, as you definitely don't want to anger the guy who plays Michael, we've seen what that man can do.
