The British inventor and adventurer, often described by the media as the real Iron Man, Richard Browning, broke his previous record by flying in a suit equipped with a jet engine.
Browning flew a wing-guided jet suit at a speed of 136,891 kilometers per hour, more than double the record of 51.53 kilometers per hour two years ago, according to the Guinness Book of World Records.
With this accomplishment, the adventurer entered the Guinness Book of World Records by achieving the highest speed using a jet engine suit, physically controlled and guided by wind power. It was tested at Brighton Pier in England.
The suit, invented by Richard Browning, may not be as elegant as the iron man's suit or the level of technology it has shown in films, but the flying suit developed by his start-up company, Graffiti, is the closest in the world to the iron man's Tony Stark suit.
