An advertisement for Bull Shark Testosterone in GTA V.

More bite than bush elephant testosterone.
— Description on www.bullsharktestosterone.com

Bull Shark Testosterone is a steroid mentioned several times throughout the HD Universe, and has become a usable item in Grand Theft Auto Online.

Description[]

The steroid is made from the testicles of Chilean bull sharks. Brucie Kibbutz is a known user of Bull Shark Testosterone, and has even made a company selling it as of 2013.

Bull Shark Testosterone has many effects on users. They include excessive 'roid rage, enhanced strength, and higher reflexes. Brucie has been turned into a maniac just from using too much Bull Shark Testosterone. However, the GTA Online Protagonist seems to experience no long term effects from taking it, for gameplay reasons.

In Grand Theft Auto V, its website is www.bullsharktestosterone.com.

Grand Theft Auto Online[]

When consumed, Bull Shark Testosterone doubles the damage inflicted by the player, including that dealt by both weapons and the player's fists, while halving damage taken by the player. The effects of Bull Shark Testosterone last 60 seconds before wearing off. A timer is displayed to show the time remaining. When under the influence of Bull Shark Testosterone, the player's screen is tinted yellow.

The player is able to call Brucie when Rank 17 is reached, to have him deliver a package of the drug. It costs $500. In Deathmatches, Bull Shark Testosterone packages are spread throughout the map.

As a VIP/CEO or Vice President, the player can spawn Bull Shark Testosterone closer to the player at double the cost, namely $1,000. Otherwise, the BST can spawn a distance from the player (a quarter of a mile or more), limiting its usefulness in freemode confrontations.

Trivia[]

  • An internet news article from Talkin' Balls after the mission Derailed, mentions the Bull Shark Testosterone. The article reports that Brucie Kibbutz wants to expand the market of testosterone, and is starting to commercialize the testosterone to people over 45 years.
  • VIP/CEO or Vice President BST will not despawn unless they didn't collect it for extended periods. BST requested directly from Brucie, however, will despawn if they get near and then travel far enough.
  • A possible glitch was present where Bull Shark Testosterone spawned in by VIPs/CEOs or Vice Presidents will not spawn correctly based on the connection of the session with nearby players (spawns either without a blip, far away from them, it cannot be picked up, etc.).
    • Drop limits can also glitch by duplicating BST for Associates or disappearing if no one collected it.
    • This glitch is caused by the Sightseer VIP Work, where other CEOs or Vice Presidents can no longer collect BST even if the mission is finished. This has been fixed in update 1.42.
  • Occasionally, BST drops will spawn on building-entrance coronas. They can still be collected, but the player immediately enters the building; the countdown continues despite this, limiting its effective use.
