A fan ofThe Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrimhas shared a video of an incredible trick shot they used to kill a bandit. Even thoughSkyrimcame out over a decadeago, gamers are still playing it to this day, and it likely reaches a whole new audience every time Bethesda re-releases the game.
Over the years, manySkyrimfans have shared videos of them killing various enemies and NPCs in impressive and unusual ways.

The video, shared by a Reddit user named Rollback_George, begins with the bandit being thrown off the edge of a platform using theUnrelenting Force dragon shout. The bandit will likely not survive the fall, but Rollback_George has a completely different fate in mind, as they somehow grab the enemy and seemingly throw him high in the air. Then, the player takes aim at the falling bandit, landing a perfect strike with an arrow and killing him instantly. As the user was in sneak mode the whole time, it counts as a stealth kill with the damage being multiplied by three times.
This looks like an incredibly elaborate and complicated way of killing a bandit, but fans in the comments section appear massively impressed by the creativity on display. Rollback_George confirms that took advantage of a glitch to use theVampiric Grip perk inThe Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrimon the bandit before shooting the arrow.
Upon being asked about the number of tries it took to pull off this trick shot, Rollback_George mentioned that getting the trajectory right andnot letting theSkyrimbandit dieby the fall took the longest amount of time. They also claim to have another clip showing the move with a 360-degree turn, but stated that it’s not as funny as the one featured in the video.
A few users also wonder what was going on inside the bandit’s head as the player performed this move inThe Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim. Overall, gamers appear incredibly impressed by the trick shot, with some expressing their surprise at it being counted as a sneak attack despite the elaborate setup.
