This isn\u2019t the first time a player has had a hilarious fail due to the wonders of virtual reality; plenty of users have gotten a bit too immersed in the experience, falling flat on their faces or getting scared out of their skin in overtly realistic horror games, a la Resident Evil 7.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Girl has epic fail playing VR game by running straight into a wall Fortune \/ ricardogonhin, YouTubeYouTuber \u2018ricardogonhin\u2019 uploaded a video on January 3, which showed their friend suffering from a hilarious slip-up in the midst of a VR game.
