The entire structure will automatically rotate according to the light in order to avoid glare on the screen. What else is there to say... Give a gamer such a chair, put it near the fridge and he will never leave it :). Of course, it costs a lot of money. The company wants $40,000 for it.

The Verruckt is 51.38 metres high. That's higher than the Statue of Liberty or Niagara Falls, by the way. To reach the top of the hill you have to climb no less than 264 stairs. To pass the 'test', foursome of heroes are recruited and together they hurtle through the water at speeds of up to 110km/h.
