Thats horrendous. I    cant look down.  <\/p>\n<p>    Back in the studio, Kate Garraway joked: Its torture Richard    week on Good Morning Britain, welcome.  <\/p>\n<p>    But things got worse when Richard had to try out a virtual    reality slide that made you think you were plunging 800 feet    down and across the London skyline.  <\/p>\n<p>    When the reporter strapped himself into the slide and saw    himself whizzing through the air at speeds up to 100mph,    Richard screamed and held onto the sides of his slide,    leaving Kate and guest host Jeremy Kyle in stitches.  <\/p>\n<p>    Better you than us, Rich.  <\/p>\n<p>      Game Of Thrones' Jon Snow's      cape is just an Ikea rug    <\/p>\n<p>      EastEnders star Davood Ghadami      signs up to Strictly Come Dancing 2017    <\/p>\n<p>      Nicola to witness killer      Phelan's dark side in Corrie    <\/p>\n<p>    If youre brave and\/or stupid, you can book your own Shard    VR experiences here.  <\/p>\n<p>    Although we doubt you could beat Richards screams.  <\/p>\n<p>    MORE: Sharnado 5 stars    Good Morning Britains Kate Garraway, Charlotte Hawkins and    Laura Tobin  <\/p>\n<p>    MORE: EastEnders star    Davood Ghadami is second celebrity to sign up to Strictly Come    Dancing 2017  <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><!-- Auto Generated --><\/p>\n<p>View post: <\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/metro.co.uk\/2017\/08\/08\/richard-arnold-tried-out-a-terrifying-virtual-reality-slide-on-gmb-and-he-was-hysterical-6836318\/\" title=\"Richard Arnold tried out a terrifying virtual reality slide on GMB and he was hysterical - Metro\">Richard Arnold tried out a terrifying virtual reality slide on GMB and he was hysterical - Metro<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Richard tried out the Shard VR experiences (Picture: ITV) Poor Richard Arnold is having an absolute mare this week.
