To do this, shoot five vultures circling in the air above you, then stand back and watch as the ice-cream truck suddenly appears and careens into your target.  Here’s a clip:

The inspiration for this article is a WhatCulture Gaming video, where their team summarised their favourite video game secrets and easter eggs.  You can see the clip here:
