Just had my first major accident with VR. I have had a few moments where I have banged my controller off the walls or the light. And even a couple of occasions where I have went to lean on the table playing Eleven Table tennis and caught myself just in time.
But, yesterday, I tried Rise of the Jumbotron in Rec room. It's brilliant BTW. Anyway, I have never been so immersed in a game before. Everyone else was dead and I was trapped at side of one of the rooms. They had me pinned down and I didn't know what to do. When I looked to my left there was a sloping wall with a pillar in front of it. I thought to myself, I can lean on that and fire around the pillar, they won't get me!
haha, great idea, apart from the fact that there was no wall there in real life. So I fell like Del boy in that famous scene in Only fools and horses where he went to lean against the bar but the barmaid had opened the door. I crashed the side of my head against the corner of my subwoofer and had to go for stitches.
While I was falling, my brain was trying to figure out why I hadn't felt the wall yet. It was a really strange moment and I was confused as hell, not by the bang on the head but by the differing signals my body and eyes were sending to my brain.
10/10 will fall again!
