You can now rawdog the longest flight in the world without ever needing to leave your home

Creators invite 'passengers' to 'buckle up. Lock in. Endure the flight [and] put your mind to the test with Rawdog Flight Simulator'

If you're absolutely desperate to rawdog your next flight but haven't got a trip on the horizon, then don't worry.

You can now rawdog from the comfort of your own living room.

Yep, the viral travel trend has evolved into something you can actually do from home and although it's probably not quite as hardcore, it's a pretty decent second option.

If you're yet to hear about rawdogging, then let us first start by explaining that it's not what you think it is.

We also suggest *not* looking it up on Urban Dictionary, as you might find something quite different.

These days, rawdogging refers to a new travel trend which sees people taking long-haul flights armed with absolutely nothing to occupy them.

Most of us like to get stuck into a book, several movies - or at least music - while flying.

But if you're going to rawdog a flight, you're not allowed any of this, not even water.

Some people also suggest wearing jeans, as joggers, leggings or shorts (basically, anything too comfy) is way too much of a luxury.

More recently, rawdogging has transcended out of the sky and into our everyday lives here on the ground.

For example, one athlete even rawdogged an event at the 2024 Paris Olympics, which was pretty impressive.

Now, someone has created a 'Rawdog Simulator' so you can essentially pretend you're on a real flight for several hours, while staring at the seat (or screen) in front of you.

Just like with real rawdogging, the idea is you can't have anything to occupy you.

Creators invite 'passengers' to 'buckle up. Lock in. Endure the flight [and] put your mind to the test with Rawdog Flight Simulator'.

And according to the website, the simulator actually uses a face tracking tool to make sure there's no cheating.

That's pretty intense, tbf.

People were pretty surprised by the game, with many taking to Reddit and social media to discuss.

One person wrote: "Why does this even exist?"

While another joked: "I stare at a wall for 8 hours to prove what a big man I am."

And a third added: "I spit out my coffee when I scrolled past this."

Others said they were a little put off by the camera element, however.

They wrote: "Interesting, but can’t get onboard with the camera requirement."

And another said: "Yup backed out at that point."
