Watching OK Go’s latest music video, Upside Down & Inside Out, probably had you screaming, “I want to do that!” The band sure makes it look easy, but the choreographed stunts the members perform are highly complex, and probably a bit dangerous.
However, it is possible for anyone with the guts and grits – and the funds – to experience zero gravity.
One major American company, Zero-G, specializes in the type “weightless flights” that you see in the music video, where you can float around the inside of a plane, like astronauts and the OK Go guys.
It’s surprisingly simple: A plane flies in a parabolic arc, climbing at an angle of nearly 45 degrees, to around 25,000 feet. As the aircraft reaches the top of its arc, the occupants enter a period of free-fall, which they experience as zero gravity for less than 30 seconds before the plane must tip down and begin its descent. The plane will make this maneuver several times. It’s one way space agencies, like NASA, train astronauts.
Of course, it’s not for everyone; they don’t call the plane a “vomit comet” for no reason. OK Go reportedly spent a year preparing for the video. But for adrenaline junkies who love the free-fall sensation of high-altitude roller coasters, here’s how to get the maximum thrill weightlessness.

Your WhatsApp voice notes could help screen for early signs of depression
The study, led by researchers in Brazil including Victor H. O. Otani from the Santa Casa de São Paulo School of Medical Sciences, found that their AI could identify depression in female participants with 91.9% accuracy. All the AI needed was a simple recording of the person describing how their week went.
Talk to AI every day? New research says it might signal depression
This finding comes from a national survey of nearly 21,000 U.S. adults conducted in 2025, where participants detailed how often they interacted with generative AI tools and completed standard mental health questionnaires. Within that group, about 10% said they used AI daily, and 5% said they engaged with chatbots multiple times throughout the day. Those daily users showed higher rates of reported depressive symptoms and other negative emotional effects, such as anxiety and irritability.

The comments follow a series of years-long development milestones. Optimus, which was originally unveiled as the Tesla Bot in 2021, has undergone multiple prototype iterations and has already been pressed into service handling simple tasks in Tesla factories. According to Musk, those internal deployments will expand in complexity later this year, helping prepare the robotics platform for broader use.
