Six Flags has unveiled North America's first virtual reality roller coaster.

It's not a simulated rollercoaster experience, it's a rollercoaster you ride, while you wear a VR headset.

Six Flags Over Georgia teamed up with Samsung and Oculus VR for the new thrill ride.

The coaster zooms your body through the usual drops and twists while your headset provides a digital world with lasers and explosions and aliens.

The alien threat is, of course, not real, but the fear and nausea might be.
