It is remarkable as VR has the power to trick our reptilian brain. First times you use it you will experiment vertigo, real physical fear including goosebumps and cold sweats, anguish, etc. (i particularly remember the dark mine in Arizona Sunshine, i really dont want to return there, ever)

Then the neocortex takes command and you will gradually be able to control any situation. Some people however never achieve it 100% . My mother for instance is unable to complete Richie's Plank Experience not matter how many times she tries, she simply cant walk along the plank. My brother cant stand subnautica for more than 5 minutes and a friend of mine cant tolerate frontal crashes in racing sims... Some people however should simply be kept away of any HMD:

Clearly the holodeck safeties were off. :scan:

I've never tried these things, but it looks like they're best used in a padded room.
 
Definitely not things as I've never really collected or owned much of anything, so nothing that I seek out to have or get passionate about like a car or coin collection or board games etc. so I voted experiences and I would like to say music and travelling, but I really don't experience much of either, but I do really enjoy the experience of going out and drinking and meeting random people and just having a good time!
