Now this is very cool.

Thanks to the introduction of YouTube’s 360-degree video format you can now use virtual reality headsets to watch certain videos.

Take this teaser video of the Cliffs of Moher as recorded by Eric Fassbender, for example.

If you have a VR headset then you can stick it on and look at the cliffs as if you were actually there from the comfort of your own sofa.

If you don’t have a VR headset then you can always just play around with the navigation buttons on the video itself.

The video above is only a ‘teaser’ trailer of more to come and according to Eric Fassbender, the ‘full length, colour graded version with high quality sounds coming soon’.

We can’t wait.
