Default Need training video

I'm a ground-bound lurker who's been learning a lot from you guys and I
would appreciate your help.
Many years ago I set out to learn to fly gliders, but only got 1-2 hours
time before medical problems sidelined me. I would like some suggestions
for good videos or a simulator to get the feel of real flight even if I
can't be up there. My present experience is limited now to flying r/c
gliders. Fun, but not quite the same thrill. Thanks for any suggestions.
