Jetpack Pilot Leaps Incredible Gaps Between Platforms, Like Mario

Over the weekend, a video of Richard Browning performing some daring stunts at the International Manufacturing Technology Show in Chicago went viral.

Browning mixed it up this time, instead of just zipping back and forth over a desolate mountainside.

An impressive demonstration of the jetpack's agility and a glimpse of what's possible can be seen in the video, which shows him leap from one concrete platform to the next some 30 feet away.

There Goes Gravity

The suit's seven small jet engines allow its wearer to modify their direction and altitude on the fly, Iron Man-style.

There are many real-world applications for the Gravity's invention. In an interview at the event, Browning highlighted the utility to paramedics and search and rescue teams, who could use it to cover more difficult terrain.

In tough to navigate conditions like mountains or urban block congested conditions, we can get there quickly.

The suit was used to board a military vessel on the open sea.

Browning likened the feeling of taking off to a dream of flying.

He said that it is as easy to move as riding a bike or skiing. It's pretty good.

The residents were alarmed when a man in a jetsuit cruises through the bridge.
