Next Big Thing in Fall Protection? Wearable Airbag?

Discovery Channel has a new show called Prototype This.  This year they featured fall protection by creating a prototype of a wearable airbag.  I love how the guys says, I dont know why this shouldnt be on the market and the guy who is working is wrapped in something the size of a small Volkswagen Bus!  Who knows, maybe one of our manufacturers will get really innovative and find a way to shrink this so that it is actually a feasible fall protection solution.  Just think a computer used to fill a room.. now it fits in your pocket.  It could happen!
