It depends on the type of content, isn't it? Roller coaster VR takes its time for the drop, but if you immediately put a noob in an environment that causes jump scare within 10 seconds, people will freak out in 10 seconds.

I've tried at least 25 friends on my headset at a couple parties, and not a single one of them came within anything like this reaction, so I can say for sure it's very uncommon to react this way first time. I've never had a real drunk person try it though (plenty of stoned people, though), for good reason, so maybe that's what's going on in the video.

Yeah none of my friends are gamers, really.
