Munich Re, US Tornado VR

At Munich Re, we are always exploring innovative ways to help make communities safer. A major part of
that is education. In this spirit, we’ve created a virtual reality (VR) environment that gives participants a front row (and safe) seat to the power and destruction of a realistic tornado.

When a tornado hits, there is no way to completely avoid the danger they pose. Resilient homes and communities however can help mitigate the physical damage to property and save lives. And, when combined with adequate insurance, they can return to normalcy much more efficiently after a disaster like a tornado hits. To learn more about Munich Re, US’s work in Resilience click here.

I tried to lower the volume and i turned it up and i got so scared

[nickhalloway]

Whoa, that kinda freaked me out a bit. It works well with a PSVR HMD and volume turned up.

That's great, Sometimes we need to get our minds off negativity and just motivate ourselves, If you dwell on your failures you will end up not achieving your dreams, take a chance and try something new.
