The Null Device

A Russian inventor has devised an ingenious running aid: petrol-powered running boots:

The boots are powered by 30-cm (12-inch) pistons strapped to the calf. They fire when the wearer steps down, pushing a metal platform away from the bottom of the shoe. This shoots the wearer up into the air.
