I saw a weird explosion. What happened?

 So I was playing the game, and I saw this explosion in southwest Fort Carson. At first I thought it was just the Beagle that spawns and explodes. But that's not where the Beagle spawns, and you can tell that the explosion directly came from one spot. In fact, the Beagle isn't even that close to that area. When I inspected, I only found an un-exploded Sanchez. What glitch is this? It wouldn't make sense for it to be a plane crash.

I just tested this 3 times and each time it worked, but I had a different vehicle.

 

I approached from the drive-in theatre and then through the trailer park, but no vehicle spawned and no explosion. I turned onto the main road and headed north and a Wayfarer by the Donut Shop exploded!

 

Nothing happened again after that, so I reloaded my save game and repeated the route and heard an explosion each time. I'll try to upload a video once I actually SEE the explosion again.

 

You may have just discovered a new myth/glitch there, bud!

Cool! There must be something with Fort Carson and random exploding vehicles.

From what I could tell, It appears that approaching from that route causes the Beagle to spawn and explode. and if you drive quickly enough, the next random parked vehicle to spawn will explode. Strangely, the Wayfarer did not actually explode, it was just a visual effect.

Yeah, but the Beagle is pretty far away, and other cars shouldn't come near the Sanchez that spawns there. I have no idea what is causing this. I'll investigate into this too.

So, I went and did a further look. I took roughly the same path multiple times with a Hotknife, Sanchez, and Infernus, but nothing happened. 

 

Sorry to keep bumping, but I was able to get this phenomenon to happen again. This proves that this is consistent, and happens in the same place every time. Why does it happen though?

 

Please do not triple post. Use the "Edit" button in the top right to add to your previous post if it is only a few days old.

Hahaha, that's a really cool find! Absolutely useless (sadly!), but I can't believe I've never seen it!

I don't think I have ever came across this really and I've been playing this motherf*cker on the PS2 for damn near 20 years, lmaoo. The sh*t peeps still finding on a near 20 year old game is f*cking insane.

I would wager that a vehicle is supposed to spawn there but maybe it spawns under the ground and the top of it gets glitched into that low wall which causes it to explode. This peaked my curiosity and I tried 3 times but no explosions for me.

Good theory, but it still raises the question on why it only sometimes happens. The two times I got to happen I was using a trusty Infernus, so that might help you find it.

You say you found a Sanchez in good condition which makes me believe that either nothing spawns there or 2 vehicles spawn. I haven't found any vehicles there during my attempts (exploded or not) but I will try experimenting more later.

I once saw a car there as well, I think it was a Landstalker, or something like that.

 

I noticed that a molotov cocktail spawns like right next to the spot. This is probably a stupid question, but could this somehow cause the glitch? I mean, it's more likely just a vehicle spawn glitch, but it's something to note. I'm really invested into investigating this at this point.
