If the player presses up against the swings in a vehicle then it will often be flung, with little or no warning, an incredible distance through the air; it is not uncommon for flying vehicles to reach or even clear [[Outlook Park]] to the west. The end result of vehicular flight is almost always catastrophic bodywork damage, although frequently the engine is left running. This enables the player to cruise away in their ruined vehicle. A vehicle that is flung using the swings will often turn out severely deformed in such a manner that could not be easily achieved through street crashes, or crashing into solid objects. | If the player presses up against the swings in a vehicle then it will often be flung, with little or no warning, an incredible distance through the air; it is not uncommon for flying vehicles to reach or even clear [[Outlook Park]] to the west.

The player risks being thrown out through the windshield upon launch, often depending on the initial orientation of the car; facing the vehicle to the swing will increase the likelihood of it happening. Having been thrown out and falling from a considerable height, the player may fall to his death if he is thrown to the west instead of the east, where the player may land safely in water. However, it is nearly impossible for players to get launched through the windshield in multiplayer. It is also recommended to have the side where the vehicle's engine is located to not touch the swingset or else the engine will eventually catch on fire. | The player risks being thrown out through the windshield at the majority of the time upon launch, often depending on the initial orientation of the car; facing the vehicle to the swing will increase the likelihood of it happening.

The best swingset to use is | The best swingset to use is the northern one as using the southern one will almost always guarantee crashing into large apartment buildings. It is much preferable to use the middle pole rather than the sides ones. | ||
As well as flinging vehicles, the swings have been known to hurl players and unsuspecting pedestrians on foot who hang from or brush up against them. Although amusing, this is all but guaranteed to result in death. | As well as flinging vehicles, the swings have been known to hurl players and unsuspecting pedestrians on foot who hang from or brush up against them.
