First Person Mario: Endgame

lucky760 says...

That was really awesome, but I had a very strange experience watching it. My body actually felt like it was moving with Mario as he was jumping around. My feet and head keep feeling the sensation of quick ascent even though they remained totally still. It made me a tad dizzy if you want to know the truth.

Weird. I've never had such an experience with any kind of first-person video before. Am I just getting old or should I worry about some kind of problem with my brain?

I've met a few heavyweight jazz musicians-Dizzy Gillespie, Marcus Roberts, Sonny Rollins, McCoy Tyner, Herbie Mann, uhhh...Met B.B. KIng after a show (all these are in passing after shows) Partied with Ike Willis a couple times in different states (guitar player for Zappa for years)
Played 3 holes of golf onna photo shoot with Nolan Ryan when he pitched for the Astros.
Met a few rock stars, Met and spoke with Roger Daltrey when I was 11 years old atta Mall record shop in Dallas(1976 NA Tour, last with Kieth Moon) , my mom was standing in line to get her albums autographed, and then when it was her turn, she grabbed Daltrey by his head and hi-jacked him with a wet one, got a picture of that one...Daltrey looked overwhelmed and looked over at me and asked, "That your mum?!"

Most impressive star-saturation came Labor Day weekend, 1975 in Atoka Oklahoma atta 3-day outdoor concert event...camp out-I was 10, found a backstage pass onna chain, and wandered around backstage and on buses with a fuckload of country stars.
Waylon Jennings, Jerry Jeff Walker, can't remember em all, I was a little kid but i remember a lotta musicians tripping on me running around backstage-Some thought I was just a roadie's kid.
Met Jerry Lee Lewis backstage there....

Instructor saves first time solo skydivers life in midair

Shepppard says...

I would assume he couldn't because either
A) He couldn't correct himself, he always seemed to be spinning and therefore would always have his chute towards the ground. (This seems most likely because every time he moved his arm to reach for the pull, he twisted)

or B) he was too dizzy from doing all his damn spinning to be able to find the pull himself.

I'm at least passingly familiar with the idea, but the part I find most interesting is that he does appear to be immune to the dizziness such spinning would normally cause. Even without using the techniques most dancers use to avoid dizziness.

I've never seen any meaningful investigations into why this is so, nor do I really expect to. Few people are willing to allow research into their religious practices and mindsets.

Well, I expected it to be complete rubbish, and ofc following China was always going to be a tough ask. Still, I was pleasantly surprised. I really liked the Industrial revolution bit, the music was great. Great Ormond/NHS dragged on a bit and fuck me I wish they'd put Paul Mccartney out to pasture already. Another tired rendition of Hey Jude? I'd rather they'd given the mic back to Dizzy Rascal tbh.

So yah, some good, some bad.

Oh, and NBC didn't air the class Abide With Me bit because they didn't realise it was about the bombings? herp-derp.
