I don't know where he found it but my boss forwarded this to me. It almost looks like it could work.

might look like but i don't think it's a possibility. just think about all those metals sticking in your body (ouchhhh). but kudos to the person for his forward thinking...

Other uses:
doubles as a flack jacket.
Has an inflatable bladder and becomes a sumo suit for those impromptu Metro Train parties.
Avoids that awkward "I haven't seen you in a long time and I forgot your name" thing by clearly identifying you as Fred!

How about an inflatable bicycle that doubles as a pillow on the train (and as a raft, if you encounter a flood)?

It looks hot and bulky too. What do you do when it's time to ride and you have to carry that hot heavy bulky jacket in 90 degree weather?
