Yes, you read it right! An iron man suit actually exists that can fly. Remember getting goosebumps while sitting on your couch and watching Tony Stark doing exceptional things and wondering on becoming Iron Man? Alas! we couldn’t reach there but someone with an extraordinary mind has proved that it was not fictional.
The man behind turning fiction into reality
Adam Savage, the former ‘Mythbusters’ has brought the idea of Iron Man in the real-life. He has created the first IM suit which can even fly. Many attempts of creating the Iron Man suit previously have been in vain. But Adam believed in ‘Try, Try and Ever Succeed’ and reached the level of success.

- To build the IM suit, savage 3D printed an entire suit Mark II armour with titanium.
- After assembling, he takes several shots at it to inspect how well does it hold.
- He took a hand from Gravity Industries’ Richard Browning to make the suit fly. Richard is known for designing and flying his own jetpack.
