When Boris Johnson played Oculus Rift
"So, what's the point of this?"
Fresh from taking out a 10-year-old boy in a rugby game, bumbling London boss Boris Johnson has tried a virtual reality headset for what looks like the first time. His verdict?
"So, what's the point of this?"
While on a jolly to Israel, Johnson strapped an Oculus Rift to his face and played a dog simulator.
In the video below, courtesy of the BBC, Johnson narrates his experience.
"I think I'm a cat," he says. "No, I'm a dog."
Boris barks. At one point he bumps into a camera.
A dog simulator isn't, perhaps, the best virtual reality has to offer. But one wonders what might have happened had Boris played Valve's Portal demo.
