Virtual reality.

Not to brag or anything, but my imagination is fucking massive. My regular dreams sometimes shock me with their scale and complexity(not always though). I have no idea what kind of worlds my mind will create once I'm perfectly lucid. The way I figure it, you imagine the most incredible experiences, of any kind, you've ever had in your life. Then you realize all of that is in the brain. Then you pull away the limitations of your sense, and multiply those incredible experiences by about 1000. RE: Virtual reality.

I find sex boring and no different to rubbing my elbow energetically and if I do it long enough then it starts to feel more like rubbing my eyeball. Except hugs are nice. I'd much prefer to be doing exciting things in a virtual reality like really extreme sports and learning martial arts. Paragliding high over an active volcano for example, or skydiving from the edge of the Earth's atmosphere through a cumulus nimbus cloud. RE: Virtual reality.

It starts at an altitude of 9000 meters on a barren snowy mountaintop and runs downwards for several days through cliffs, lush forests, deserts, waterfalls and other exciting landscapes, until it reaches a system of deep caves. There are opportunities to pause for refreshments at particularly beautiful spots on the way. So I'd set up a perfect simulation of that. Yes yes yes yes yes, that's a fuckin genius idea. If you have ever seen the film Hook with peter pan in, that's sort of what world sounds like. It would be great to have a waterslide going past pirate galleons, snowy mountains, tropical rivers, mermaids and all of that. Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them. Impersonation is treason.

Yeh as well as fighting animals I'd love to experience what it would have been like to box with Muhammad Ali or Mike Tyson, or MMA with those guys, without actually risking breaking bones.

I'd be in a Silent Hill game and scare the crap out of myself.
I actually spend more than a healthy amount of time thinking of all the things I could/would do in similar scenarios, so the list would bore everyone to tears. The biggest problem would be convincing me to come out again. Feel free to send me a private message.

If you don't want to list the things you could do in this scenario it's up to you, I doubt it would bore me to tears. I wouldn't personally pick a silent hill type of thing to scare me, for me it would be more like paranormal activities or insidious. Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN!

A VR theme park is going to open soon in Utah, called the void.
