TRANSCRIPT
Iron Man using his armor to fly around might seem closer to reality in the near future.
This is the JetSuit, designed by inventor Richard Browning.
SOT: “It’s going to look like a mash up of Red Bull Air Race meets, a Marvel superhero film.”
It allows pilots to defy gravity and tops out at speeds of up to 85 miles per hour.
The suit is made up of two jet engines that are attached to each arm, and a 5th engine strapped to the back.
It can carry about 5 gallons of jet fuel and propel a 200 pound person for up to 7 minutes.
Browning has announced an international race series where celebrities and sports personalities race through gates using the JetSuit.
SOT: “The format of the race series is going to consist of guys and girls, many of whom you might notice are familiar faces, joining together in iconic locations over water, pushing the boundaries of human and machine technology. So in terms of race series, we’re very excited about this.”
The series will take place over water in locations across the world.
SOT: “It’s just gonna be a really fascinating melting pot of human and machine against each other seeing how fast or how fast and how far you can push those boundaries but in a safe environment over water.”
And… want one of your own? The JetSuit is available to buy for a cool $440,000.
