Rockstar never revealed how Brian Johnson died — and fans have been debating it for 20 years.

Despite being a central motivation for CJ's entire story arc, Brian Johnson's death is never explained in GTA: San Andreas. The game heavily implies CJ was negligent and could have prevented it, causing him to flee to Liberty City for five years, but Rockstar deliberately left the exact circumstances a permanent mystery.
