wish they could attach a jet pack to that

I Am The Ice Cream Man



Rapeing little kids in the back of my van



When they here my bell pick up your pants and run like hell

but it is stupid and wouldn't work. I liked seeing the guy holding up the 2inch thick cable. I also thought it was funny that they made it so bulky. It is completely disfunctional because you would always be bumping into stuff and it would be intensly easy to disable one of these things by cutting one of the total affinity of wires.

I do not see how this could help anyone since all it does is increase you strength for the select few positions that you can lift in with the suit on.



A real Iron Man suit would be just like the one in the movie; a flexible suit. All that the suit should be is an extra layer of muscle with some armour. A huge backpack with huge arm and leg extensions wouldn't work worth a crap.



I drew up a prototype once to demonstrate a proper design because I was annoyed at this one.



It would be very cool if they could get a jet pack that actually fit and all, and worked well.

and YOU're lauging at THEM?



The days when fanboy ideas such as jetpacks mounted on highly manoeuvrable aerodynamic exo-skeletons using adamantum cables is far, far away. Be content with what we get.

to all the people who say the design is terrible, it wouldn't work, its impractical, and too easy to disable: you have to crawl before you can walk.



This exoskeleton has many uses and many of them are highlighted in the video. Such as carrying the heavy ammo crates. Inside a hanger the manbot can carry 2 ammo boxes per trip. In the other video that goes more indepth it shows how the manbot replaced 3 men at this. Of course, you could just create an automated process and use regular machines but with this you get the strength/endurance of hydraulic machinery and also the mobility and ingenuity of a weak human.



King, did you ever think maybe the military is not wanting to build an ironman replica? Possibly because we don't have anywhere close the tech. needed for it.

We have had this particular suit for over a year. It is not a breakthrough, especially not the technology. We have had all these things availiable to us for at least 15 years and many private ventures and large companies have used it to create suits and robots (Honda Asimo). If every inventer had to crawl before they could walk, then no one would ever run. Henry Ford didn't re invent the car or the internal combustion engine but he did put them together in an efficient manner so that they worked WELL and were affordable.



Now it is obvious that a Jetpack is a very distant reality if at all but as I said it would be cool. They have already invented the jetpack but to get one to work with this would be great.



If anyone actually watched the movie then they would relize that the suit they came up with was actually very good and completely realistic with current technology except for the Uber power cell and the propulsion system. But like the first suit that he makes in the movie is totally feasible.



Read what I wrote and discover that I never said anything about flying in a heavy suit. "A real Iron Man suit would be just like the one in the movie; a flexible suit. All that the suit should be is an extra layer of muscle with some armour."



I don't get why everyone thinks that the military is the only use for something like this. Some people, like the guy in Ironman, have personal junk they want to take care of. And besides, wouldn't it be cool to run around in a intersting looking metal suit that (could) potentially fly? (a real one that could fly would definitely be cool)



"but with this you get the strength/endurance of hydraulic machinery and also the mobility and ingenuity of a weak human." The only people who would need this are people who are wimps or to lazy to work out. Those ammo cans are not THAT heavy. Most anyone could carry two of those loaded.





zoogr2, I am not sad, I do not have that sad of a life, but I am somewhat disturbed at times. Don't hate the player, hate the game. The oh so true words that, if everyone followed, would make the world so much better. Besides, many many many more people hate question talkers then myself.
