The Joe Rogan Experience

in like this virtual reality, three-dimensional panorama, but you see it from the point of view of everybody else, right?

The Joe Rogan Experience

So if you were mean to someone, if you stabbed someone, or in Daniel's case, he was in special forces in Vietnam and he actually killed people.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2151 - Rizwan Virk

He said he had to experience what it was like

The Joe Rogan Experience

to get the bullet, and then more than that, experience what happened after that guy died, his wife, the guy who died, his wife and children, what kind of suffering they experienced.

The Joe Rogan Experience

So it's like you're reviewing, like after a football game, right, or after a match.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2151 - Rizwan Virk

You might sit there and review on the screen what happened.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2151 - Rizwan Virk

Except this screen is like fully immersive, the best VR you could ever have.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2151 - Rizwan Virk

It's like you're reliving the moment.

The Joe Rogan Experience

So a couple years ago, I was involved with a startup in Silicon Valley, and we took a game like League of Legends.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2151 - Rizwan Virk

You've probably heard of League of Legends, like the most popular, at least it was, esports game, right?

The Joe Rogan Experience

And you've got all these guys on a field, but pretty much you play on a 2D screen.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2151 - Rizwan Virk

So we made it so you could replay the game, but you would put on a virtual reality headset and it would seem like you were on, you know, on the field in League of Legends and you could replay from any point of view.

The Joe Rogan Experience

Same with Counter-Strike Global Offensive was the one that, you know, I was thinking of because in that game, it's a first person shooter.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2151 - Rizwan Virk

So you're like shooting people.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2151 - Rizwan Virk

And so literally you could go back and replay that game from the point of view of the person you shot, right?

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2151 - Rizwan Virk

And so when I was experiencing this, it was reminding me of all these things these near-death experiencers have been telling us about this life review.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2151 - Rizwan Virk

And as an engineer and computer scientist, my question is always, well, how does that work?

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2151 - Rizwan Virk

I mean, if you could replay every single moment in your life, even the moments when you weren't there, including, like, what happened to this guy's wife and what happened to their children, somebody has to record all that stuff.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2151 - Rizwan Virk

Because how are you going to replay it if it's not being recorded?
