In this episode of Modern Marvels we’ll see how technology can give any of us super powers. In Utah, we’ll see a researcher strap on an exoskeleton and lift hundreds of pounds with virtually no effort. In England, we’ll visit “Mr. Cyborg,” a man with the ability to control machines with the power of his mind. In California, we’ll see wing-suited experts glide through the sky like Superman; then it’s off to Georgia to see how engineers have invented a device to help us glide through the water like Aquaman. We’ll see scientists at the University of Texas building artificial muscles that are 400 times stronger than our own, and in Las Vegas we’ll strap on “velocity motion stilts” for a little bionic high jumping and high speed running.
