Yes.

You tried to "simulate" it. Meaning you expected it, you saw it coming. You did this below Vmc, close to the ground, on takeoff? You haven't actually experienced it when it's really happening.

You might be smart enough to listen to more knowledgeable and experienced posters here who strongly suggest you don't put yourself in a position to be experiencing an engine failure below a speed at which it's controllable, and who tell you, BEFORE you have to experience it for yourself, that the airplane can roll over on your faster than you imagine it can. Much faster.

Then again, like your alter ego's here that were banned, you still won't listen, still want to reinvent the wheel, still think you can do it better. You may end up killing yourself to learn otherwise, but like the drowing man who can't be passed a glass of water, at least you'll have your way.
