Fitness, sports, and adventure have always been a favourite of Dubai Crown Prince Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum and rightly so, he has now taken to another adventure that would allow him to fly like Marvel’s Iron Man.

The Prince tried his hands at a gravity-defying jet suit and took to Instagram on Wednesday to share a video of a gravity-defying jet suit, that he said he was ‘curious to try’.

The video features Richard Browning, the founder and chief test pilot of Gravity Industries, and the creator of the jet suit, demonstrating a flight.

 

Since he unveiled the first version of the jet suit in 2017, Browning has often been referred to on social media as Iron Man, performing hundreds of gravity-defying demonstration flights around the world and breaking two world records.

The jet suit demonstration took place at a high-profile facility at the NAS Sports Complex, which is often visited by elite athletes, such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Mohamed Salah, and Paul Pogba, among others. Sheikh Hamdan is a regular at the complex too, where he is regularly seen trying out various activities.
