Ratman is an unproven rat-like creature said to exist in Grand Theft Auto IV. This is a very debated myth since most people cannot find him and many believe he's just another non-existent myth, like Bigfoot. The likely explanation is that he is a homeless person mistaken for a "ratman".
Description
He is said to live underground in the subway, near the abandoned subway station in Chinatown. He apparently runs faster than the NRG 900 and it is said that if you shoot him he will come back and kill you. When you're dead, he supposedly nibbles on your face until you return to the nearest hospital. A bile or fungus-like substance can be found along the floors of the subway and supposedly dead bodies can be found down there from time to time; however players have most likely killed someone down there and then took a photo or started recording, implying the the person was dead before they got there.
Evidence against the existence of "Ratman"
