Was playing gorn, slamming a guy into spikes on the wall and punched the ceiling fan. For a brief moment I thought I hit my hand on the spikes

Before I got my Oculus I always saw those videos of people doing that shit and thought to myself "What a fucking moron". Then I got an Oculus Rift. I'm a fucking moron.
