Moving from one place to another has been distressful for humanity especially in the ages. Our ancestors used their God-given legs to walk to their destination; which is unarguably tiring and exhausting. The ‘rich’ ones among them who were able to afford a donkey or a horse were not having a smooth ride; cruising on a horse’s back does not sound like a fun to me. This transportation issue limited them to a particular settlement, no going to Dubai for shopping, or Paris for a holiday, their whole life was constrained in a very infinitesimal world.
Technology came and it brought about a dramatic turnaround to everything. Carts, Bicycle, Motorcycle, Cars, Aircrafts, they have all brought convenience to us and moving around the world has never been made so easy. I heard about a supersonic jet that could fly from New York to London in 11 minutes.

The capacity of human’s brain is infinite indeed. Unimaginable stuffs are being created: great ideas, fantastic innovations, mouth-watering and eyepopping technology are emerging faster than an unsavvy fellow can catch up.
I could remember those times I used to feel like I could fly to my destination instead of trekking, like having a device that could lift me up off my feet and allow me to push myself forward against the resistance of the air. I always saw those imaginations as daydreaming until I read about a British man, Richard Browning, aka Real-life Iron man who was able to achieve my dream in a jet engine power suit.
I hope to wear this suit one day, I cannot fathom the thrill, joy and fulfilment on the I fly around with this suit.
