Jumping out of a virtual plane while floating three feet from the ground and being held by someone standing up, however? That I can get behind.

Which is how I ended up at iFly’s new VR experience near Universal Studios in LA this week, dressed in a jump suit, strapped into a Samsung Gear, and floating over Hawaii while bemused tourists wandering the retail center outside the theme park gawped and ‘grammed.
