The Rollerman Suit is Jean-Yves Blondeau's own invention. It's a suit of full-body armor, equipped with 32 wheels placed on the hands, feet, knees, torso, arms, and back. The suit gives the wearer the ability to roll on an part of his body, and especially downhill fast on their belly.
Jean-Yves created the suit as his final graduation project, when he was a student at an industrial design school in Paris in 1994.
He wanted to create something that didn’t yet exist, perhaps even something that filled gaps in gliding postures in sports, with a goal to enable the human body to move freely in all possible positions.
Jean-Yves said, he still makes these suits today, and it takes about 2 months to mould a complete set, and the suits sell for about $6,400 euro or about $6,760 US Dollars.
Now even though Jean-Yves is known as the Rollerman, and the suit would be best known as a rollersuit, wheel suit or rollerblade suit. The activity of using the suit, is referred to as body blading, roller suiting, and wheel suiting, but Jean-Yves coined his own term for using the suit, which he calls Buggyrollin.
Thanks for watching.

The real life iron man
I thought of that same concept seven years ago!
So 12 year after he built his first suit and 12 years after he was well known on mountain roads here in Italy and in France....
He's like BumbleBee from Transformers
Did he steal the idea from the wheelers in the film 'Return to Oz' from 1985 though?
Good film reference!
@@sarahw7616 As soon as I saw that suit with wheels for hands, it reminded me of them straight away. I admit I had to Google the year the film was made, but I was sure it was prior to 1994 as I remember watching it in the 80s
Been there. Done that. Highly recommend
