Others have taken a stab at this sort of project before, but all of those I’ve seen only do one half of the equation: the claw extension. Once the claws came out, they had to be manually set back in place. Weaaaak.
With the help of a super clever compressed air system, Furze’s claws are able to extend and retract on command. Sure, he needs to wear a big ol’ backpack to make it all work — but besides swappin’ out your skeleton for one with a bit more adamantium, this is probably about as close as you can get to the real deal.
As much as I’d love to play with a pair of these, I’m pretty sure I’d end up stabbing myself just putting on the backpack.
If the guy in the video looks familiar, don’t be too surprised. This isn’t Furze’s first venture into the land of insane DIY. Back in 2007, he made a massive (and terrifyingly shoddy looking) “Wall Of Death” so he could ride around almost horizontally on his lil’ Honda Skyride.
