With an expressionless face and a twitch of his head, VR Guy peered awkwardly into our souls when he bravely decided to break out his Samsung Gear VR on the subway. But the question remains: What exactly does VR Guy see that we cannot?

Someone asked if the image might be what reality VR Guy was missing by being so immersed in his VR. That could be one way to interpret it; I leave this up to you.
