He already set a world record last year for traveling at the fastest speed in a body controlled jet engine powered suit, but now inventor Richard Browning and Gravity Industries want to do more. Here's the Guinness World Records video of his first feat which had Richard achieving a speed of just over 32 mph.

Richard and team have been gunning to hit 100 mph and are working on a safety device that could make this possible. They're currently testing the suit at Zip World in Wales. Richard uses a zip line to test how aerodynamics and gravity affect the suit and its speed. Watch out world, it's a real life "Iron Man!"
