An inventor who built a real-life Iron Man suit so that he could fly through the air like Tony Stark has earned himself a world record. On a dramatic day at Lagoona Park, Reading, British entrepreneur Richard Browning achieved a speed of 32.02 mph (51.53 km/h) on his third timed attempt, before mistiming a turn and dropping into the lake.



Richard Browning, founder and chief test pilot of British tech company Gravity Industries has soared into the record books with the brand-new Guinness World Records title for the Fastest speed in a body controlled jet engine powered suit. The Iron Man suit is made up of six kerosene-fueled micro gas turbines, which each have 22 kg of thrust.
