Southern Grandparents React To Virtual Reality - Bonus Cut! | Southern Living

Virtual reality is the newest technological advancement in video gaming, so we decided to test it out on our favorite people: Southern grandparents. Some visited a scenic cliff, some shot arrows at castle intruders, and some killed zombies.

That old man tried to pistol-whip a zombie! Respect.

[@uvbe]

Yeah it's sad that this is an old game and that isn't possible. If they did this now it would have worked!

[@averyangrycrow4936]

I got my grandad to play a game in virtual really (he’s been living with me for a couple years since Nan passed) and he really enjoyed it, it was so wholesome to watch him play gorn

[@pous3r]

I have traditional Catholic Irish grandparents and I feel pigs would fly before they would play Gorn. Though it's funny to imagine.

[@averyangrycrow4936]

@@pous3r my grandad is the exact same and really enjoyed it, even got him to play superhot which was hilarious

@0:58 when you been married so long you refer to your spouse as a creature of some sorts

[@Fermion.]

0:30 "This doesn't have a tendency to make people dizzy, by any chance? Like Vertigo?" Even though this was back in 2017, before hi-tech VR became mainstream, and with him likely being out of touch with cutting-edge technology, he still hit the nail on the head. Boomer wisdom.

[@SapuTaro-nr5bl]

Ahead of their time

[@lislejohnson6813]

you can tell they had lots of fun trying out something so high tec great to see

[@ConvallariaM4jalis]

They're so precious.

[@dreameroftheblue]

"it's the skah!!" showing people vr for the first time with my quest is absolutely one of the best parts about it, can confirm

[@MediocritysMuse]

"That was fantastic. I'd like to have one." Seduction complete.

imagine how we are going to react in future ahead of our time

[@StevenMcSteve]

elders react to full dive mmorpgs, oh shit now if we die in the game we die in real life edition, featuring Dante from the devil may cry series

[@Fermion.]

Or imagine after WWIII and the apocolypse which sends us back to the stone age, we try to explain the internet and VR to our grandkids, who have no concept of anything but rocks and sticks for entertainment.

[@locktum1]

@@Fermion. pretty impossible for us to return to the stone age, we would still have the knowledge on how to build the infrastructure for the internet and for an economy again.

[@Fermion.]

@@locktum1 You're vastly underestimating how quickly knowledge can be lost. It only takes a couple generations after a cataclysm to set society back centuries. Our modern society is very fragile, and demands constant attention from thousands of PhD level professionals of various disciplines to keep it going. The Internet alone requires not only massive networking data centers, but also an small electrical plant to power it, and a large HVAC team to control the temperatures. And also a team of aerospace engineers to manage the satellites.

nothing more wholesome then this! great vid! its always great watching someone experience something entirely new.

I love this, my family lives far away and it's nice to get a touch of home when I'm away from Tennessee. 😍

[@nodozz2]

It really is a incredible experience my first vr experience was in may when I bought a quest, I love it...

[@tonysen5583]

Awww they all had fun and that's all that matters

[@viego29]

So my school had this thing where they use VR but it doesn’t run any games, it just puts u to this thing where there’s a lot of different jobs and you get to decide which you want to experience, I tried it and be is amazing, even tho our schools VR aren’t that great it’s still amazing they manage to get a couple of them and made this.

[@debatingaftershock6816]

Ok... this culture (kids and elders) is such a treasure

You might notice they aren't that shocked or terrified. Remember they have experienced all the horror that life can throw at you. They raised children. I speak from experience.
