## Summary

King starts the video off with an explanation, saying that one of his most requested items to smash, in the comment sections of his videos and from some of his friends, is the Oculus Quest 2. All that King could say was: "WHY?!". He then later made a joke about it being an expensive pair of goggles. Then he brings out the actual Oculus Quest 2.

King then made a disclaimer, saying he has no issues with Oculus, in fact, he owns a Quest 1 and another Quest 2, and he has a dedicated room to play them in. He then says that having to make a Facebook account is a "first world problem", although this statement is coming from the guy who broadcasts his life online. He then proceeds to unbox the Oculus Quest 2 in the dedicated room, one which has a lot of echoing. The box has quite a bit of weight into it, which King was able to sit and jump on, and kickflip it. After stomping on the box a few more times, he takes the shrink wrap off the box and proceeds to get the Oculus Quest 2 out of the box. He then decides to take some stickers off some of the items that were in the box. King then explains that he would smash his personal Quest 2 so that he could get a fresh one, but he was too lazy to transfer everything.

King then proceeds to boot up the Quest 2 and set it up. He sets up his camera where he zooms his camera lens into the lenses of the Quest 2, in an attempt to film it. He tries another way, to connect it with the Oculus app, but it turns out he needed Facebook Messenger, which is not what King wanted. Anyway, after setting up the app, King now has a new and innovative way to game, to be taken out of reality.

The virtual environment actually looked like his house. He then proceeds to knock his "obsolete consoles" over. The controller's haptics felt very lifelike. He was able to destroy some items without any consequences. He starts off with smashing a laptop, and a TV, using one of the controllers, although the controller starts to fall apart. However, as apparent later in the video, the controllers' build quality was half decent, so they were still working at this point.

With the assumption that the possibilities of VR were endless, King tries to walk through a wall. He then proceeds to hit the Oculus Quest 2 at the wall a couple of times. He then tries to jump through a painting like Mario 64, although the painting ended up breaking apart. He then is curious about what it would feel like to be in the POV of one of the electronics he buys, and does this by hitting the Oculus Quest 2 with the Hammer, while leaving the Quest 2 on his face. The Quest 2 then stopped working.

The video then cuts to a scene at Facebook's headquarters, where one of the spies monitors what King is doing with his Oculus Quest 2, and sees him hitting it with a hammer, all while leaving it on his face. The spy doesn't feel so good spying on the mentally challenged, and wants to go back to watching old people instead.

Later, as it turned out, the Oculus Quest 2 was still working, and King then proceeded to dip the headset into a sink full of water. He now understands how fishes feel. King then goes into the shower, with the water pouring onto the VR headset. As a result, King was dripping wet.

The video then goes to another scene, where King goes outside in the VR world. King hears a vehicle, and proceeds to take the VR headset off his head and dropped it to the ground. The car ended up running the headset over, and as a result, the VR headset ended up destroyed. The Facebook spy sees this, and falls over from his chair. King then comes to the realization that living in the real world wasn't so bad after all.

King then starts smashing the Oculus Quest 2 for real now. He starts by slamming the controllers onto the ground, stepping on it, and smashing it with the bat. He then moves over to the headset itself, where he starts by smashing it with the bat. Unfortunately, there was a "little something" that King forgot to take out before smashing the headset, which was the battery. Thankfully it didn't explode. After taking the battery out, King then resumes smashing the headset with the bat, and then sets it on fire.

The lesson learned in this video is to always live in the real world, because you'll never know when it'll come to an end, just like the world in the headset.

The lens of the VR headset then goes to the Facebook spy, who ends the video, where King exclaims "Who said that?".

Also, the reason why there was no viewfinder when running the headset over with the car was because it died after going in the shower, and then the video cuts to a scene of Luigi getting run over with the car instead.
