  1. Many elderly VR reaction videos on YouTube. Watching kids experience it for the first time, hearing their reactions, is also interesting and funny.

  2. But really tho, the REAL gamechanger from this VR stuff is gonna be Telepresence.
    These people in retirement homes will be out there in the world living their real lives, seeing the real sights in real-time, interacting with friends anywhere in the world, all through robotic bodies streaming back to the retirement home.

    There'll be no reason to passively consume pre-recorded VR movies like in this video, when you can be there watching the stream in real-time, completely interactive, controlling real robotic arms, moving around on real robotic legs or wheels, it'll be the real world.

  3. This is all of us when we get old. Running around in VR shooting aliens.
    Git Gud Grandmas, ain't no noobs here, our retirement home will maintain at least a 1.5 KDR.

    Future's gonna be wild yo.
    (Just make sure i'm hooked upto a defibrillator pls, or jumpscares will literally kill us lol)
