Waves Auto

Im on the mission Catch the wave on grand theft auto 4 and the guy im with phil keeps dying when he runs?

...out does anyone know any strategies? and how far am i through the game?

That is strange, out of all the times I have completed that mission, Phil hasn't died once. He's like, indestructable!

Try reading that, it may make it simpler.
I think you are almost 90% Maybe you have between 10 and 15 missions left.
