Damage, no, but I don't think it will work. Driving the display for 2 3D headsets would be pretty taxing but it wouldn't actually damage anything. I'm guessing most software will only recognize and output to one headset anyway. Even if you could get it to work with some sort of hardware splitter, one person would need to "drive". The "passenger" would likely get motion sick.
A bus station is where a bus stops. A train station is where a train stops. On my desk, I have a work station…
