Description
When performing a Thunder Flop, Murray will orient his body parallel with the ground and splay out his arms and legs, then fall towards the ground at high speed, until slamming down and causing a shockwave, after which he stands back up quickly. Buying the Raging Inferno Flop from ThiefNet causes a flaming shockwave to emanate from the point where Murray lands.
