A TikTok video showing that exoskeletons are available for rent in China at a surprisingly affordable cost has quickly gained popularity, thanks to an American tourist who shared the discovery.
It’s not unusual for people visiting China to be surprised by how advanced the technology is, and it often leads to fun and interesting videos online.
A great instance of this happened during IShowSpeed’s tour in April, when he was amazed by a self-driving car that could ‘dance’ with him.
Okay, so I just saw this crazy TikTok about an American tourist, Christian Grossi, who was able to *rent an exoskeleton* while visiting Zhangjiajie National Park! Apparently, it helped him hike around, which is awesome. But the really cool thing? It wasn’t super expensive – that’s what’s making the video blow up, I guess. Seriously, renting an exoskeleton! Who knew?
American tourist rents exoskeleton for walk and it’s super cheap
A travel vlogger on TikTok got to try out an exoskeleton for free – normally a $22 rental. Even purchasing one outright is surprisingly affordable, costing under $1000.
The exoskeleton helps people run and walk and is powered by two batteries. These batteries can last for eight to ten hours, allowing for extended use throughout the day – it’s not just a short-term assist.
“This is amazing – the coolest thing I’ve ever seen!” he exclaimed to the shop owner in a video that’s already been viewed over 33 million times in just three days. He was also surprised by the price, saying, “It’s way more affordable than I expected!”
Many people were surprised by the rental cost. One viewer joked that it would be $600,000 and require advertising to actually secure the rental. Another commented that it costs $1,000 per hour to rent in the USA.
One viewer said they’d definitely purchase this for their parents, who have difficulty walking, because they can’t be there to help them both simultaneously. They mentioned the price is $950 each.
It’s worth noting that exoskeletons aren’t brand new – they’ve already been helping workers in physically demanding roles in places like Australia. Even so, they continue to be quite remarkable.
