Since then, interest in his invention has gone from strength to strength with even a member of the UK military allegedly expressing a desire to adapt the suit for use on the battlefield.

Browning's most recent appearance was at a TED event in Vancouver where he gave a talk about his invention to a crowd of over 2,000 guests before donning the suit for a quick demonstration.

"The reaction was brilliant," he said. "It left a big impression on people, I think."
