 "Anand Mahindra shares video of 'very innovative' safety device for injury-free landing; watch")
An avid Twitter user, Mahindra Group chairperson Anand Mahindra is known for sharing all kinds of innovative, informative, and interesting content on social media. In a bid to make his followers more aware and inspire them, he always manages to drop content that leaves his followers awed. This time too, the industrialist went on to share a unique kind of device that can help people jump out of high-rise buildings in case of emergencies. Taking to Twitter, Mahindra posted a video that shows the inflatable safety device and the entire procedure of using it. He also stated that companies need to manufacture such devices for real. The 40-second clip begins with a demonstration of the safety device. In the footage, a man can be seen wearing a transformable backpack. Before jumping off the building, he straps on the device which goes on to turn into a huge flower-like structure, securing the man entirely and helping him land on the ground like a parachute. Watch:
I hope this is for real and some company is manufacturing it. If I lived in a high-rise, this would be a priority purchase! Very innovative. pic.twitter.com/BLkzMyWGtZ

More ShortsA brilliant idea. They could also offer this in aircrafts, with a closed baloon though.

Chinese manufacture’s this. They tried one last time from Beijing’s high-rises, and unluckily it flew to Montana.

Notably, this device is very similar to the one manufactured earlier by a Russian company and was called SPARS. Originally called the ‘Autonomous Rescue Pneumo Transformable Chute Back-Pack System’, SPARS is basically an inflatable aerodynamic decelerator that has been equipped with a ring parachute. It is forced open by an inflatable frame that is integrated with airbags. Read all the Latest News , Trending News , Cricket News , Bollywood News , India News and Entertainment News here.
