British entrepreneur Richard Browning has created a real-life Iron Man suit, by attaching miniature jet engines to his limbs. He has just founded Gravity, a tech start-up who have built and filed patents for the human propulsion technology that could re-imagine manned flight. Browning, a former Royal Marine reservist, has released a YouTube video showing him testing the 'Daedalus', the company’s mark 1 jet-engine suit, in fields, factories and empty car parks.

The footage shows Browning travelling just a few meters wearing the Daedalus, while Gravity has ambitious plans to successfully complete the world’s first human propulsion flight in the next 12 months.

“Our vision is to build an entirely new generation of human flight systems for commercial, military and entertainment applications,” the Gravity team explains.

“Our mission is to build an inspirational technology company by re-imagining the future of human flight and pioneering aeronautical innovation.”

Browning says his suit has already been compared to Tony Stark's fictional superhero Iron Man.

“We’ve already had a few comparisons to Tony Stark, but this is real-world aeronautical innovation,” he said.

“We are serious about building a world-changing technology business. We stand at the very beginning of what human propulsion systems will do.”

He told Red Bull, who he has partnered with: “It's like riding a bike in three dimensions.

“The suit can fly in most locations,” he adds. “Despite being capable of flying at several hundred miles per hour, and at thousands of feet, normal operation sees the wearer flying at no more than a couple of meters.”
