GTA 5 Parachute Cheat Code: How to Skydive on Any Platform

Need a parachute right now, mid-jump off Mount Chiliad or falling out of a stolen Buzzard? GTA 5 has a dedicated cheat that drops one on your back instantly, no trip to a store required. It works the same way on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One and PC.

Essentials:

• Phone number: 1-999-759-3483 (1-999-SKY-DIVE)
• PC console command: SKYDIVE
• PS4/PS5 controller combo: Left, Right, L1, L2, R1, R2, R2, Left, Left, Right, L1
• Xbox controller combo: Left, Right, LB, LT, RB, RT, RT, Left, Left, Right, LB
• Story mode only - it does not work in GTA Online
• Disables story mode achievements and trophies for the rest of the session

The phone number method (works on every platform)

The most reliable way to trigger the parachute cheat is through Michael, Franklin or Trevor's in-game phone, and it is identical across PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One and PC:

1. Open the phone (default is the touchpad on PlayStation, the View button on Xbox, or Up on the D-pad).
2. Tap the phone icon to bring up the dial pad.
3. Dial 1-999-759-3483 and hit call.
4. A sound effect confirms the code landed and a parachute appears on your character's back immediately.

This is the version to use if you play with a keyboard and mouse and don't want to fumble a fast button sequence, or if you just prefer not to memorize a combo.

PC: the SKYDIVE console command

On PC you can skip the phone entirely. During normal gameplay (not paused, not in a menu), type:

SKYDIVE

Typing it registers each keystroke as you go, so if you mistype a letter, just start the whole word over. The cheat activates the instant the last letter registers - you'll hear the same confirmation chime as the phone method.

PS4 and PS5 controller code

If you'd rather not open the phone, tap this out on the D-pad and shoulder buttons while your character is free to move (not paused, not in a cutscene or menu):

Left, Right, L1, L2, R1, R2, R2, Left, Left, Right, L1

Enter it briskly - the game reads it as a timed sequence, and pausing too long between inputs can make it fail to register. If nothing happens, wait a second and try again from the start.

Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S controller code

The Xbox version uses the same directional pattern, just mapped to Xbox's shoulder button names:

Left, Right, LB, LT, RB, RT, RT, Left, Left, Right, LB

Same rule applies: enter it quickly and in order, while actively controlling your character out in the open world.

What actually happens when you activate it

A parachute appears strapped to your character's back, ready to deploy the next time you jump or fall from height. It doesn't launch you into the air on its own - you still need to jump off something (a building, a plane, a cliff) and then hit the parachute button to open the canopy. It's essentially a free, instant parachute pickup, useful for:

• Bailing safely out of a stolen jet or helicopter mid-flight
• Getting off Mount Chiliad or the observatory without a hard landing
• Setting up trick jumps and stunts without needing to find a parachute spawn point first
• Combining with the moon gravity or super jump cheats for exaggerated stunt jumps

Rules and limitations to know before you use it

• Story mode only. Cheats are hard-disabled in GTA Online; there is no way to trigger any cheat code, including this one, in multiplayer.
• Achievements and trophies pause. Activating any cheat, including the parachute one, disables trophy and achievement progress for the rest of that play session. Reloading a save made before you entered the cheat restores eligibility.
• It doesn't corrupt saves. You can save your game with the cheat active - it just won't count toward trophies until you're on a clean session again.
• You can toggle some cheats off by re-entering them, but the parachute cheat is a one-time pickup rather than a persistent state, so there's nothing to turn off - it simply gives you the item once.

Frequently asked questions

Does the parachute cheat work in GTA Online? No. All cheat codes, phone numbers and controller combos are exclusive to story mode.

Will using it lock me out of trophies permanently? No, only for the current session. Load an earlier save that predates the cheat and your eligibility for trophies and achievements returns.

Can I use the phone number and the controller code interchangeably? Yes, they trigger the exact same effect. Use whichever is faster for your setup - phone for keyboard/mouse players, controller combo for a fast in-the-moment save.
