I searched an empty trashcan and it crashed.
Its like its trying to tell you how dumb you are for doing something that stupid.
The amount of bugs is ridiculous.
I bet you're playing on PS3
Fun in PS3 version: I was playing it at my friend's place, he was having trouble getting through the Boomer section so I did it for him. I messed up on the first try in the most hilarious way - I rocket jumped off one of the explosions.
Got launched into the sky so fast that I hit the top of the world and died of impact damage.
Oh and talked to one of the boomer dudes and his head was on backwards. PS3 version is buggy as stuff, but the PC version, I'm yet to encounter any bugs at all, and I've crashed once in over 60 hours of gameplay. Unlike Oblivion where I crashed 60 times in one hour of gameplay. NV is really stable for a Bethesda game. :V
