I'd rather be able to shift between first and third person views.

I tell you what, I'd probably stop dancing after that.

I woudln't mind the change of view though only for a day at least. Driving would be a whole new meaning to me.
But I'd be more likely to drive into objects for power ups or general destruction.

OT: Id have to agree with the general concept, which has already been stated, of utilizing such a vantage point for ill, i.e. checking out hot girls from a variety of angles you could never get your eyes to. I'm a bad person, aren't I?
God help us all if you get the blue tortoise shell..

You're not a bad person for writing what we're all thinking.

I'd be even more self conscious of my posture.

But I'd also be too focused on my unbelievably sexy face.

Turn around a lot trying to spot the little critter responsible for my perspective. Kind of like seeing yourself on a CCTV monitor and trying to figure out when the camera is. THEN I'd start to wonder if there was this infinite conga line of detached sentience. Where there is me, then my perspective, then its perspective, then that one's perspective and so on. Unless the initial perspective has no spatial awareness and simulates first person spatial awareness.

I'd probably get to the self-consciousness bit too. OR WOULD I?! If my perspective was detached then would it be more like controlling a robot, where I have no stake in the vessel? Would my perspective be a separate vessel? I can't comprehend life with a third person perspective that isn't from another being's first person perspective. Is it only our first person perspective that makes us identify with ourselves? Would my perspective be aware it was detached? If I say 'I' would it be with the identity of 'estranged narrator', or as in the identity of protagonist and narrator? This same quandary occurs when updating Facebook statuses.

You're blowing my mind OP.

Everything would seem much smaller than it actually is. and I for one would be hard-pressed to adjust to such circumstances.

Interesting... I'd probably become rich pretending to be a psychic.

It would be interesting, but I'd probably get creeped out after the first 15 minutes or so because my voice sounds really goofy and deep when I'm on camera or something where I can hear my own voice. However, to myself it sounds completely ordinary.

Dam It'd be more relaxing walking home from Uni.No not random strangers, I'm talking about during spring time when the local birds are really aggressive. One time I walked 100 metres past a tree where a bird was, I looked at it, turned around, kept going, and 10 seconds later it almost hit my ear, so now when I walk past the swooping birds it gets me so paranoid because they can so easily peck you in the eyes.
