Gravity : ‘Daedalus’ Jet Suit

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image media="55079" media_width_percent="100"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row unlock_row="" row_height_percent="0" overlay_alpha="50" gutter_size="3" shift_y="0"][vc_column width="1/6"][/vc_column][vc_column width="2/3"][vc_column_text el_class="inspiration-post"]In Greek mythology Daedalus achieved human flight with wax and feather wings but in the 21st century he'd have strapped 6 jet propulsion engines on to himself and created a body suit like this.

This Iron Man-like suit requires 2/3 of the pilot's weight to be borne by the arms so it's not the easiest to fly, most practical, or safest; but it's got to be one of the coolest flying suits I've seen.
