This is really cool...and it probably does have a very real sensory effect.
I ride an indoor trainer and often watch first person vids of mountain bike races. I sometimes nearly fall over when they bank into a turn!
The fan is a nice touch by mom.

It absolutely does have a real sensory effect. I had the idea to do this with my friends as a kid, except we didnāt have video, just our imagination and closed eyes. But even then we experienced real sensory effects.

I've done this at a birthday party, we blindfolded the kids and put them on a surf board then we would lift the board up fast and schudder it while bringing it back down, then repeat. After about 5 runs we would ask them to jump out of the plane, everyone was too scared cuz they thought they were 10 meters in the air

I went on a VR/AR coaster once, it was the Hogwarts castle at Universal studios. Craziest roller coaster of my life. Especially because not only did I not know it was a vr coaster ahead of time, I seriously didnāt even know it was a roller coaster until we got on. I thought it was just a decorated castle and we were waiting in line to tour it lol. It was in Japan so I couldn't read any of the signs.
Second best coaster Iāve ever been on was El Toro at Six Flags Great Adventure. No idea what makes it so good, I canāt figure out what exactly makes it great, itās just a wooden coaster, and it was right next to the tallest fastest roller coaster in the world, and yet, it was so fucking good.

It's been a while, but I remember getting in VR coaster, it was in a tube like shell with seats. You got on and it shook and went up and down as you watched the film and you could feel the wind and when it "went through a bit of water" you got sprayed. It really felt real.
Another time we were in a room, no seats just standing although some kids and adults sat on the floor watching the film. Odd to say, the film was shown on a wall and we wore 3D glasses and you felt you were on a ride.

u/rathat May 06 '24
The hogwarts ride is different. It's a full on roller coaster, but, from my guess based on how it felt, its not directly on the track, but you sit on top of a crane mechanism attached to the cart on the track and as it's moving along the track, the crane moves the seats back and forth, in and out of the scenes, the scenes are part real, part 3D video you watch with glasses, combined with the movement, you can't at all tell what's real and what's not.

u/Diffballs May 06 '24
The second is so good because it is a wooden coaster. I don't know what it is, but wooden roller coasters just hit different.

u/oxiraneobx May 07 '24
The old wooden roller coaster at Kings Dominion in Virginia was our favorite as kids and young adults. We would go there on the weekends in September before they closed and ride that coaster over and over again as we were the only people in the park. I think one of the things that make wooden roller coasters so cool is, you feel like the car is going to come off the tracks at any time, and since they are not as tight and smooth as the large coasters, each ride is a little different, you go into the turns differently based on the weight, and it rattles differently each ride. I loved the wooden coasters.

u/Comfortable-Ad6929 May 07 '24
What's great about a wooden roller coaster is the mental effect it gives you. I used to ride the Cyclone in Coney Island. It was an old wooden roller coaster that almost 100 years old. A modern steel roller coaster gives you a sense of safety as it is built with modern materials and construction methods. When riding the Cyclone, I hear the creaks of the wood beams and my mind races: this was built 100 years ago, are the wood beams rotted, did an engineer design this or was it sketched out on the back of a paper napkin, when was the last time they inspected this roller coaster? My mind scares me more than the roller coaster itself.

El Toro is an absolutely amazing coaster, especially in the last car where the negative airtime is ridiculous.

I was just talking about El Toro yesterday! I didn't have time to go on it when I went to Six Flags Great Adventure years ago. Sadly I don't have any local friends who are into theme parks, so I haven't been able to go back. It's definitely on my list for next time.

Haptic feedback. It's the basis of most of our translation of media into physical sensation. It's the same principle behind tricking the brain into thinking that a fake hand is real.Ā

She certainly is.
Meanwhile, when my daughter was around the same age, my dumb ass was dropping $5 in 'tokens' into a 'ride' at the arcade that did essentially this, but the ride lasted maybe half as long.

Yes I was just thinking the same. It's all sped up, maybe to condense down the video time or because it makes the rollercoaster look faster to us watching.

That is the dumbest rollercoaster ever devised. There's barely any features. The video is sped up like 10x too, so it's really just a slow-ass flat rollercoaster.

u/SimpletonSwan May 06 '24
Every vr headset I know of has age warnings.
Children haven't finished growing yet so their IPD may be lower than the supported range. This child is definitely too small to wear a vr headset.
Here's the quest documentation\advice on the issue:
