Can you kill michael de santa in gta v?

In Grand Theft Auto V, the narrative follows three protagonists, one of whom is Michael De Santa. He is a retired bank robber who, along with Franklin and Trevor, plans and executes various heists. The game’s single‑player experience is structured so that each of the three characters is playable and essential to the story’s progression. Consequently, the game does not allow the player to kill Michael; doing so would break the narrative structure. While players can incapacitate or shoot at various NPCs and enemies, Michael’s character is protected by the game’s design, ensuring that he survives until the end of the storyline.
