1. Fly with your own jetpack in the most recent episode of 'The Possible'. Watch now on the Within app ⇨ http://on.mash.to/2oWK6un

2. I quit MMORPGs because I told myself I'd have plenty of time to invest myself in those worlds when I'm 90.

3. The first step to that one black mirror episode

4. This reminds me of the Black Mirror Episode San Junipero, only a beta version of it.

5. Bet the poor won't be given that treatment

6. Sao? Anyone?

7. bruh what if when you die you wake up in a hospital and realize it was all a virtual reality experience?

8. How much does it add onto the hospital bill though? 10K?

9. I used to play video games when I got tooth extraction and helped me get through the pain after the pain meds wore off.

10. I would use this . 🙂

11. Thank you for sharing this aspect of vr

12. I've had a few people I know ask why I can play video games for hours when I get irritable after one or two doing other things with friends ever since I started really suffering chronic pain. It's because video games are so much more distracting. I can do things there I can't do anymore because of injuries. I tried VR in a store on the tail end of needing a cane and forgot to use my cane after using VR for only about five minutes. I'm hoping my friends will help me get a VR game system soonish. I think it has the potential to do wonders even in fighting depression and anxiety.

13. More proof that the future is NOW.

14. those graphics are better than real life

15. Is that Tom Cruise?

16. wow I feel sorry for people there live their life in hospital

17. In the future we will all be in hospital beds, with IVs and feeding tubes hooked up as we live our life through simulations

18. This is like the sao Ep where there was this girl that had cancer or something and played the alfheim online game

19. This reminds me of the true reason why in SAO the NerveGear was invented
