Jake Kelley is Living in a Simulation

In which he is jumping high off the top of waves and threading delightful wedges.

Heard about the theory that we’re almost certainly living in a programmed simulation? Elon Musk subscribes, and many other top scientists concede it’s at least possible.

It stems from the almost vertical trajectory in the advancement of computing power, and the belief that at some point we’ll be able to simulate an entire universe that is indistinguishable from reality. If that is the case the amount of simulated universes will far outnumber the real one, ergo we’re more likely to be living in a simulation than living in the single ‘real’ universe.

Anyway, we’re not sure if the title of Jake Kelley’s latest edit is related or not, however we’re pretty sure he’s pretty happy with his current situation – threading perfect wedges and letting go of some super tweaked straight airs – whether it’s real or not.
