In just the past 8 months, billionaire Elon Musk shared that he has been the target of assassination more than once.

On July 13, the world was shocked by the attempted assassination of former US President  Donald Trump.  After the incident, Elon Musk also tweeted a shocking truth when he said that he was also the victim of two assassination plots in the past few months.

Although both times Elon Musk was targeted for assassination were unsuccessful, many questions have been raised about ensuring the safety of politicians, celebrities… from similar assassinations.

Then, billionaire Elon Musk also had a rather humorous post with the content: “Maybe it’s time to build a flying metal armor”. This made many people immediately think of Iron Man’s armor.

The billionaire’s post immediately went viral on the X platform he runs. Not only that, Elon Musk also changed his profile picture on X to a collage of himself wearing Iron Man’s armor.  Social media users also posted many collages of the billionaire with the famous armor in the Marvel universe.

Technology can now create a suit of armor that can fly and is bulletproof like Iron Man. In 2022, the British Royal Navy released footage of a soldier flying in a jet-powered suit made by Gravity Industries (UK).  The suit is controlled by air jets coming from the arms and legs, in true Iron Man style.

In addition, German Bionic, a European exoskeleton manufacturer, has also successfully created mechanical wearables that help reduce 30 kg when lifting heavy objects. Armored helmets with holographic displays and AR technology are also becoming a reality as  Apple Vision Pro continues to improve in technology.

Therefore, if Elon Musk can combine advanced technologies, completing an armor like Iron Man is a success.
