*Whapushh!* Top of the morning to you laddies!
My name is Jacksepticeye!
And welcome to Google Earth VR!!
Now this might not look like anything special to you on the screen,
because you're just looking at a 2D flat image, but right now, that's a fucking road down there.
And these are all like canyons and mountains and everything,
and I am an absolute GIANT in the middle of this...
.. *shouting* People would be absolutely minuscule before me!
So uh, this is a thing where you can actually explore ALL of Earth.
It's Google Earth in VR. It's exactly what it sounds like.
So I'm, gonna go around and explore some places, but first, it says "Click To Start Tour"...
And this is literally the first time I've started it up
So hopefully it goes good. TAKE ME AWAY! Whisk me away!
Oh, God. Can I see some cars? I can- I can hear the cars. Okay, I don't know how this works.
I- I don't know what the buttons are, can I zoom or anything?
No, I can pause. Okay, I think this is just to give me through different areas...
OH and the time of day is actually changing!
That's cool!
Oh god !
HOLY... Fuck!
Okay, hold on a second, I do not want to skip past this just yet.
Jesus Christ! Okay, I didn't have much expectations for this -
Cause I was like - it's Google Earth, it's gonna look kinda shitty.
The reason Google Earth works, is because it's like satellite imagery of everything, BUT actually being here...
It's fucking nuts!
I mean, I've never been in Tokyo so I don't know my way around -
But good lord, this is a big city!
And I'm a giant in it-
OH! You know what I am?
I'm fucking Godzilla!
I'm Godzilla, destroying downtown Tokyo!
Baa-ha!
But that's crazy, I- ahh I mean, I think you can zoom and stuff later -
But this is just a startup tour to show you different areas.
To make you see what it's like, but after a while you can actually like -
Grab stuff and zoom in and-
Go way down on to street levels.
So, I'll do that after a while, but for now let's just take in -
The sights...
Wha-haha-oh!
Holy crap! So I was down there... Actually I'm in the exact same place.
...That's so cool!
Where am I now? Florence, Italy!
Good lord! It really gives you an appreciation...
For how these places look.
OH GOD! This is really high up!
*laughing* Oh..no!
Okay! I want down please!
I want down! Next!
Egh-oh.. Oh, that's better, thank you.
Yosemite!
Aww, I really wish I knew the places. I wanna go to some places that I might actually, recognize -
After this.
Cause this is cool and all, but I imagine if you know the places, it's SO much cooler.
Oh, oh, OH! OH NO!
Ohhh GOD!
Okay, I'm fucking freaking out right now!
[Nervous breathing]
Oh, I - I'm gonna have a fucking panic attack!
That was - that was too much.
Ohhh my lord.
Oh, no, it's too much! It's fucking freaky!
I feel like I'm just gonna fall into endless abyss.
Haha, ohh no, I can't explain that feeling.
That's - that's really bizarre.
I can't do that.
It's like -
If any of you are afraid of heights and you're up on top of a building and you see the bottom and you're like -
'Oh my god! That's really fucking high up!'
This is THAT -
But way worse! You can't see the bottom!
What are you fucking vibrating for?
What are you telling me?
Oh my God NO...
Ohhh... oh god no - I can't do that!
Yes, yes, actually bring me down on to the Earth please.
I'm - I'm fucking freaking out, man!
I'm not even joking!
Where am I?
Where's Ireland? It's somewhere around here.
It's hard to fucking see through the clouds!
Okay, this isn't so bad.
I still feel like I'm super high up though I hate it!
[nervous laughter]
Let's go down to Athlone!
There's Sean's bar! [laughing]
Aaaaaathlone!
Know it like the back o' me arse!
Hey! There's where I went to college!
Holy God! Good Jaysus!
We're back in Ireland, boys!
Actually I never left Ireland, but okay...
Oh my God! Everything's actually 3D!
Holy fuck I can actually see
the little... lights on the running track!
[laughing] Oh my God!
The little cars are 3D!
This is fucking NUTS!
This is where I went to college!
For any of you... wondering.
Ah, God!
It's kind of annoying that it does that - I apologize -
like when I zoom around
you can see the outside of the screen.
And all that shit- but it needs to load stuff.
Woah!
This right here? This is a music shop.
This is where I bought my drum kit
when I used to play drums.
Oh my God, it's so fucking awesome.
This is a fast food place! I love the food in there!
[laughing]
Okay, we'll go WAY back out again.
Hey look!
I'm standing on the UK!
Haha! Take that UK!
Umm right...
Where should we go?
I don't really know.
"To go back to space, tilt Earth up."
I don't wanna though, it fucking freaks me out!
This is as far out as I wanna go.
I wanna explore some other places!
Where's that Eiffel Tower bastard?
I don't actually know where the Eiffel Tower is 'cause I don't know Paris.
I-I feel like France is a place I should've been, cause some of my school went to France... before.
But I wanna get like...
Can I...? Am I on the ground, the way I'm supposed to be? Yeah, okay.
Woah!
This feels weird too because I'm such a fucking GIANT in this location.
Like- BOOM...BOOM!
This is what it must be like!
For Godzilla to walk around these places...and everyone fuckin' screaming in terror!
Not that scary, dudes! 'Kay, let's go...like down here.
Woah!
Can I get...?
Can I get even smaller?
Oh! I can actually pick places.
Oh my god I can change the time of day!
That's fucking weird!
Wee!
Oh and it shows you the axis of where the sun goes!
That's fuckin' neato!
Oh God I can actually get right up on top of it!
Holy fuck!
That's a big tower! Have any of you actually been on the Eiffel Tower?
I haven't.
I mean- for obvious reasons because it's frickin' tall and I'm terrified of heights-
...But I really wanna go on it!
I want to go all the way to the top!
Oh God...OH God...
OHH God...woah...
[nervous laughter] Woah...!
Ah I'm at the top of it right now!
I can-[laughing]-I can stand on the top!
That is quite a view.
That's amazing!
Oh God that's-
It's making me fucking freak out! I CAN'T do...
The super...massive...like, BIGGER than life things.
Let's go somewhere else! Where else do we want to go?
Imma just go over to Lady Liberty over here.
...And say howdy-doody. Hi!
God, what's wrong with your face?
What happened?
You not feeling the liberty?
Oh that's cool...See that's the thing!
I-I don't know this place. I mean, I've seen it in games and everything...
Of course. And movies. And all that jazz. But like-
I imagine if you've been...to uh...
The Statue of Liberty and you- you've been, like, around it and everything- or if you live in New York...
That you know this stuff a bit cooler...than I would-
Oh God. Jesus.
And every time I see New York, in like...
...A video game-y fashion like this, all I can think about is Spiderman 2 on the Playstation 2.
'Cause I remember that was, like, a good recreation of the city of New York.
And you were able to, like, fly down and around all these areas here.
I don't know the names of them.
Good LORD, those are some fucking big buildings.
Woah...
That's the new World Trade building right?
Oh my God, that's cool. And this one is under construction.
Hello!
Can I go down lower?
Oh, yeah I can.
Like, I'm not even ground level right now...
...and that's a BIG fucking building.
Holy shit...
New York's cool.
I like New York but I can't handle it.
I can't, like...
To me, it's too...it's TOO dense.
For my liking.
Dude look it's Central Park!
Central Park, I've been in.
'Cause we went to New York for a YouTube thingy, remember?
And I got to walk around Central Park. I think we went to this area.
'Cause, well...
It wasn't that one. We went to an area with, like, a lot of open grass and stuff.
Yeah. That's water. [laughs]
Yeah, we were over here.
Me, Mark, and Felix and then...
I think we went exploring that way.
Oh, it's so cool.
I really like Central Park as well, 'cause I like that...
...Like, EVERYTHING around you is just a concrete jungle.
Like, everything is so urbanized all around this...but you have this nice piece of nature...
...right in the middle of, like...
...one of the biggest cities in the entire world.
And I think that's cool. And it's not just, like, a park.
It's a fucking huge park!
That's neato!
Now I feel like 1999 Godzilla.
The Roland Emmerich Godzilla.
[screeches] Smash!
Take that society!
Uh, the Hollywood sign has looked better. Come on. Pop in.
Aw, it's Hollywood and not Hollyweed.
That's lame. [laughing]
So, we're in...we're in LA!
We're in California. Right beside the Hollywood sign. Let's stand up here.
Stand up on top of this place.
It's weird, I've been to LA...
Three times now?
And I've never actually seen the Hollywood sign in person.
Can't even fuckin' remember what part of LA I was in.
I don't know LA well!
Is that downtown?
WHOOOSH!
Again, this is really hard to put into words.
It's really hard to describe what this actually looks... and feels like.
Like everything is super blocky looking, like nothing actually looks like a real building.
It doesn't feel like you're in the real world walking around.
Because you can see... how crummy everything looks. Like they don't look like trees.
And that kind of stuff. WOAH!
And the last place we'll visit, is Everest.
Dude, you don't look so big from here.
I don't know why everybody's always freaking out about it. I mean... you're tall, but you're not that tall. I'm taller!
[laughing]
God there's nothing here!
Stand on the top. Let's change the time of day.
Woah... Okay. Now I'm - Now I'm slightly freaking out a small bit.
[laughing]
Ohh, this is weird. 'Cause I did that other Everest VR thing, remember?
There wasn't a whole lot to it, but...
Jesus. THAT's pretty tall as well.
Are you sure you're the tallest?
Are we sure this is actually Everest?
I don't know, man, we might be getting fooled.
[British accent] 'Allo Ben! How you doin'?
You wanna do something that makes you feel
infinitely small?
Ohhh God...
That's so fucking weird.
It's like -
You zoom way in.
You see everything...
That's actually impressive how fast that stuff all loads in and how quickly you can go in and out of stuff.
It's fucking cool!
And it's like - you're not even at the human level.
Yet.
Like, I can't really go to the human level.
'Cause you'd be way down there.
Like this thing is fucking massive!
And then... You just pull - you pull WAY out.
You - You pull way out. WAY OUT.
And you just keep going.
It's like - Oh, okay... Oh, oh yeah. Ohh.
Oh God, yeah.
And then you do the stupid thing, which is this...
And you go even further out.
And then you realize that ALL of this FUCKING SPACE...
All everywhere...
Everybody that you have ever
known and loved...
Lives on this tiny little blue ball.
Like everybody who has ever existed in history
lives here.
That's the fucking weirdest thing!
And all of this shit out here...
I - I'm reluctant to like to look around.
All of this space...
Is all just infinite.
It's - It just fucking goes on and on and on.
And there's...
Like... Most of it is nothing.
It makes you feel like the tiniest,
most insignificant piece of life, ever.
It's the fucking craziest thing!
And all those, like, specs that you're seeing
are all stars and stardust...
And they all have their own, like, myriad of planets and everything all around them.
It's fucking bonkers!
We're tiny! We're nothing!
We just think we're something, 'cause we're like...
a big deal down here.
But, oh, up there? We're fucking nothing.
Well, that was Google Earth VR!
Hopefully that was at least somewhat fun to watch, in some regard... I - I don't know.
It's - It's super fun to do in VR and to just go around and look at all the places in the world, but, I don't know how fun it is to actually watch.
And there's like... MILLIONS of other places I could've gone in the game, but are in the...
"Game" - but I feel like I - I just wanted to show what the idea of it was.
Um... Let me - Let me know what you think!
'Cause I - I might go back, and, if you have funny places that I can go search...
Or if there's funny places in Google Earth that people have found that I can try and go find.
Then that might be a bit of fun. Uhm.
But for now, I just wanted to show what it was actually like, the zooming in and going, like, right down on top of stuff.
And again, it's really hard to... explain how it feels.
To be there and to see like all these houses that are like THIS right in front of you. And you feel like a giant, stomping around all these areas.
Really really bizarre.
It makes you feel so super small in the, in the grand scale of things.
But the, the sense of scale in this is immense and I would love...
Like, imagine!
A VR game with some of that, like, that type of in and out, uhm, and just a whole planet's worth of stuff.
Imagine that, but... more defined.
Image if someone spent the time to actually go in and model, like, everything like that.
It - It'd probably be impossible to do.
But, like, you're able to go down unto the street level and actually, like, walk around and see other NPC's and...
Everything... Just walking around the cities and see all the buildings and walking around as a normal person. Like anywhere on that.
Like - the, the potential for that would be INSANE.
Like, an open world. An actual open world RPG, it - the game-play would probably suffer greatly for it, but I - I don't know.
The idea of that is really exciting and really cool and hopefully in the future VR can get to a point that we can do stuff like that.
We... Well, we can't even do it in just a 3D game normally, let alone in VR, but... IMAGINE!
I was actually legitimately freaking out at some points in that.
Because... It gets... There's a weird middle ground where it goes from like...
"Oh, I'm standing on the ground now, I'm fine, everything just looks super small."
And that's not scary.
Like, standing up super tall and looking down to all the buildings does not make you afraid of heights, in a way...
But zooming way out and seeing the entire planet, with NOTHING underneath you?
That's scary.
Because you know that the ground is the planet.
And, like, your - your brain suddenly is like:
"Oh wait, I understand the scale of this."
And then you're like, oh God, no. I just want - I just want to close my eyes and curl up into a ball and do nothing.
Like, I would not do well in space.
I don't know how people do that, how they go up in space and the EVA and they go outside in their space suits outside the space station.
And they look down at the Earth.
That would freak me out!
Not only would it like make me scared of heights, I legit think I'd have a panic attack in that sort of situation.
Because that's - that's beyond my mind's comprehension of what height and perception and depth and everything is.
Being on top of a building, that's one thing.
Being on top of ALL the buildings, and ALL humanity and everything, and seeing your entire planet in one view would freak me the fuck out.
I think I'd have some sort of crisis. My brain would not be able to handle it so...
Mad props to the people who can do that. Like, I don't know, that's just so bizarre. To me.
And when you zoom way out and then you see all of space and you see your entire planet right there in front of you...
Like you could grab it with one hand?
It starts to get really crazy, uhm, and that's - that's the type of stuff that I don't think I could put into words when it comes to VR.
You - It's something that you have to like experience for yourself, and see for yourself.
Before you can really grasp what the hell is going on.
That goes for a lot of VR stuff, but when it comes to scale like that,  I - I don't know, you kinda have to see it to believe it. Um...
BUT ANYWAY! I'm gonna leave this video here. Hopefully you guys enjoyed that. If you did-
PUNCH that like button IN THE FACE!
LIKE A BOSS! And...
High fives all 'round.
WAPOOSH!
WAPOOSH!
But thank you guys, and I will see all you dudes...
IN THE NEXT VIDEO!
[Music]
My legs feel all weird and jelly-like now.
Like I've been standing on top of a building for too long.
