Now everyone will be able to know what it feels like lifting Arnold' s briefcase

That is some pretty impressive technology right there though.

while this kind of stuff is cool the way its shown and works now is too bulky for real use, only those silm suits shown in the hall by your man are fesable, and thats if you can fit the machines into it!
Change is inevitable. Except from a vending machine.

Viva La Revolution! erm, I mean Viva La Wii!

People had the same doubts about the first steam automobile. Where' s the horse they asked, it can' t work without a horse.

Not all military is in the front lines. Some are at base, loading tanks and bombers with shells that weigh over 100 pounds. Or even something like setting up a bridge or handing out crates of rations.

Obviously the technology will be refined from the prototype shown. But this will revolutionize a lot. And not just military stuff. There are many areas involving heavy manual labour where something like this would dramatically speed up productivity and save a few men' s backs. Imagine something like this in construction or manufacturing.

If they are durable and reliable and can lift as much as they showed in the video on a regular basis, it can definitely make a huge impact on construction and heavy labor.

Cool, I wonder how hard you can punch with that thing.

But yeah I agree, this is prop the way the military will go and how cod5:future combat will be fought.

This is cool, and the civilian applications could be great for paralysis victims or other assorted cripples (oooh, goin' to hell for that one.) And if you don' t like someone, just grab ' em by the thorat and shot-put ' em.

With the weight such a thing can lift, you could create some power armor or some kind. Probably cant withstand a rocket, but some bullets probably if they made it right. Probably be too bulky to move in though,

Pretty sweet Majik, I find it funny that a guy from Disney is now working for a weapons manufacturer.
