BACKGROUND
With a rich family history in Aviation, former Oil Trader & Royal Marines Reservist, Richard Browning, founded pioneering Aeronautical Innovation company, Gravity Industries in March 2017 to launch human flight into an entirely new era.

The Gravity #JetSuit uses over 1000bhp of Jet Engine power combined with natural human balance to deliver the most intense and enthralling spectacle, often likened to the real life Ironman.

Gravity has to date been experienced by over a billion people globally and covered by virtually every media platform. The Gravity Team, based in the UK, have delivered over 100 flight & Speaking events across 30 countries including 5 TED talks.

“The team and I are delivering on the vision to build Gravity into a world class aeronautical engineering business, challenge perceived boundaries in human aviation, and inspire a generation to dare ask 'what if…”

Gotta love the "Overjoyed Proud Dad" expression on the instructor's face after each successful free flight :D

I watched the film of The Royal Marines demonstrating this. The level of competency was exceptional as they were flying around small boats out in the bay. Amazing stuff.

The fact that these lads seemed to perfect these new, alien and difficult skills sets in difficult conditions in such a short space of time speaks volumes to the UKSF Selction process and the type of individuals it seeks and produces. Physical and mental roustness aside, SF guys need to have the ability to absorb complex information quickly and then apply it. The thinking solider indeed! It seems that a whole new chapter with infiltration capability has began with the development and proliferation of this new technology. 👍🇬🇧🇬🇧🇺🇸🇺🇸

Between that and the real plasma blade lightsaber... i think we can safely say that the future is now...

Having stopped watching your videos after the first commercial version, to seeing it now, I can say that it's impressive how much you've accomplished in such a short time.

My most common dream is me flying, either with something strapped to me or free flying watching this shows its not a dream anymore... this is incredible, truly amazing.

Having the ability of exit and re entry on a moving airborne platform (C130 or helicopter) would be a game changer. Would allow for multiple lay up positions being acheived as opposed to single drop of point or being done in series by helicopter.

Very happy to see this in my lifetime.

[adamditch]

Phenomenal flying in just 4 days.. Exceptionally talented candidates taught by a brilliant team using a brilliant invention..

[therealityartist]

This is unbelievable watching these guys is like something out of star wars absolutely brilliant

[Brynson]

Great to see British innovation leading the world into a new age once again! Huge kudos to the inventor and Gravity Industries.

Hope in the future a Lower Exo-Skeleton is incorporated so the body has a more relaxed position in flight, plus it can absorb some of the landing energy. If the thrusters were later placed on robotic mounts with gyros and stabilization software leaves the Arms are free to engage the enemy.

I thought i would never see tech that is straight out of a video game in my lifetime

[jimgregory]

Let's remember that these tier 1 operators are our most treasured bad ass heroes. Kudos on the accomplishment. You all were studs before this. Respect.

[Dudleymiddleton]

Must take some getting used to - at first it seems impossible to balance and control, but practice makes perfect as they say! Thank you for another great video! :)

[chaosfire]

Candidate 3 kicked ass on the free-flight!

[nemuiro]

why did i feel like a proud father watching this.. I didn't even contribute to anything lmao

[Vousie]

This is epic - just getting to see this much footage of people learning to fly the jet suits is so good.
