Strongest homemade exoskeleton

Inventor Jason Hobson from Kitchener, Ontario, Canada, has designed and constructed powered exoskeletons for the upper and lower body that enable him to lift the rear wheels of a GMC pick up truck weighing 5,000 lb (2,272 kg) and carry a 485-lb (220-kg) barbell with ease. Hobson, who is known online as "The Hacksmith", also completed a 275-lb (125-kg) bicep curl on national television with the help of the device. Although the exoskeleton is activated by Hobson's own body, its strength comes from a pair of powerful pneumatic cylinders.
