Red Dead Redemption 2: The Meat Shield Glitch

Arthur was never supposed to survive New Austin, but RDR2 gives us enough room to break the rules. In this fun tribute to John Carpenter's The Thing, we look at the carcass “meat shield” glitch; a strange exploit that can protect Arthur from the invisible New Austin sniper. By interrupting a pickup animation, animal carcasses can be attached to Arthur. This is one of the strangest and most useful glitches in Red Dead Redemption 2 #reddeadredemption2 #rdr2 #RedDeadResolver #thething Chapter: 0:00 - Cinematic Intro 2:12 - Introduction 3:41 - The New Austin Sniper 5:34 - The Camera is The Sniper 7:06 - What is the Glitch Doing? 8:54 - Timing & Setup 12:55 - What Happens When You Do It Too Early? 13:20 - What Happens When You Do It Too Late? 14:03 - Some Questions You May Have 16:47 - Animal Combinations 18:24 - What Animals Can You Use? 19:28 - What Breaks The Glitch? 24:14 - What Can You Do With The Glitch? 25:20 - Conclusion 26:31 - Cinematic Outro Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/kevin-macleod/hush License code: NUWROXTCKDAZLFMH
