THEY’RE TECHNO-TROUSERS, EX-NASA, FANTASTIC FOR WALKIES!

Those are feasible!

Wallace and Gromit is a British stop-motion comedy franchise. The series centres on Wallace, an absent-minded inventor and cheese enthusiast, along with his companion Gromit, a silent yet intelligent anthropomorphic dog. Because of their widespread popularity, the characters have been described as positive international icons of both modern British culture in particular and British people in general.

And they even interest future engineers! Long story short, Wallace gifted his dog, Gromit, a pair of ex-NASA Techno Trousers in the 1993 Aardman film “The Wrong Trousers“, well, the trousers themselves are actually scientifically feasible, according to research conducted by students at the University of Leicester in the UK.

If the trousers could generate enough power, they could actually allow people to walk on the ceiling! Thanks to a vacuum generator in the boots.
