With explicit crowds, bordering on a riot, the virtual reality porn festival, in Japan, was forced to close down prematurely.
Called the Adult VR Fest 01 (marking the first of its kind), the event saw over 500 people show up to the venue in the Akihabara district.
“While waiting for my friends, I couldn’t help but think that if they couldn’t control the mass of people, a riot or something similar could happen,” wrote Eizo0000. “The 20 lucky guys closest to the building were let in by staff," he added.
“The event didn’t start until 2:00 p.m., so I went there in high spirits an hour before then, but the city was already overflowing with people."
Here is some crazy footage from inside
The crowds of men poured in, all with the hopes of strapping on a headset and getting a taste of the digital sex.
Currently, to indulge, one puts on a headset and grabs a blow-up doll to simulate sex with. The future potential of this is no laughing matter, as we may be able to simulate sex with our partners, similar to simulating a conversation with a telephone.
For now, the raging youth that is interested will be kept at bay by police until the technology can be released to the public (or until they get a bigger venue).
What does this say about humanity?
