First off, make sure you’ve got the Sticky Bombs equipped in your inventory. Once this is done, simply place the explosive with R2 in your desired location. At this point you’ll probably want to run to a safe distance so this doesn’t end horribly for you. When you’re happy that you’re not going to die in the fiery explosion, and your target is in the proximity of the explosive, simply press Left on the directional pad of your controller. You should then see your character pressing the detonator in his hand and a huge explosion come from the vicinity of the Sticky Bomb. Anything around it will more than likely now be in pieces.

That’s all there is to detonating Sticky Bombs in Grand Theft Auto V. Got any tips on where to place Sticky Bombs for some chaos in Los Santos? Share them in the comments below.
