  • We've all dreamed of flying -- but for Richard Browning, flight is an obsession. He's built an Iron Man-like suit that leans on an elegant collaboration of mind, body and technology, bringing science fiction dreams a little closer to reality. Learn more about the trial and error process behind his invention and take flight with Browning in an unforgettable demo.

    Most striking is that he likens human flight to riding a bike, and after a bit, it becomes natural 👍 Well said!

    RIP to Micheal Browning. He was a true pioneer!!
    And a huge amount of respect and admiration towards Richard browning for continuing the family legacy I’m sure your father is so happy and proud to see you pushing the boundaries of science & Engineering. We now know his jet pack is even further down the line 4 years later🙏🏾.

    Everyone should be engineering and doing stuff like this. Its too the point where the average person doesn't know what a flask is, a metric ruler, nor do they probably even know what they are truly capable of. This guy just motivated me to go back in the lab.

      +Kb A I totally agree. TED have just started branching out in they're interests; they still cover much of what they used to. Do you complain each time a new tampon hits the market, if you're a man? Do you complain when they change ingredients in cat food, if you don't have a cat?
      Look for the stuff that does cover your interests and don't worry about the stuff which suits other people.

Just in 140 years they got everything just out of nowhere? Nope. Stolen from all inventions from Alexandria. It is facts 100%.
