Ever want to fly like Iron Man? Richard Browning built a working jet pack.
The first video demos the final jet pack and the second video is him giving a TED talk about the process to get to that point.
This looks like so much fun.
Adam Savage Meets Richard Browning's Flight Suit!
How I Built A Jet Suit - Richard Browning
Would you take it for a test flight?
he talks about how Tiring it is to fly. basically you are holding your weight with your arms all the time. you need to be physically prepared to fly with it or your arms will go up and you will fall with acceleration (help with thrust )
Yoooo this was so dope
Everything on t.v is real:) The key is to convince the world it's sci-fi...that's how you make money, great share!!!
This guy looks like from syfy movie. Really cool :)
This is awesome
When flying a FPV quadcopter is no longer good enough :D
Lol
Dang. That stuff gets me giddy like a teenager reading comic books again. Thanks for posting it.
Toys for grown ups.
Oh my! HAHAHAA testing those would have been scary...well for me anyways, definitely right up my husband's alley though! Or any man for that matter, you guys are so crazy!!! But that's how crazy shit get's done!!
Crazy, right? I would try it for sure.
Yeah, would take bar hopping to the Next Level! :) :) :)
cool, when do we get beams from the palms
I'm still waiting for sharks with laser beams on their heads.
He's screwed when he goes to scratch his nose.
This is cold...
They've got to make more suites so people can race now!!
I would like two Iron Man suits, please.
Right? We could race. How fun would that be? Fly into a pub and have a pint. Then off to the next one.
I wonder how much this would cost for people to use once they build a good enough suit.
This deserves some attention. Upvoted and resteemed :)
wow!
