Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos is able to do a lot of stuff that the common American can’t, including testing out a massive robot suit.
There are few people in the world who are worth more than Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos. Because of this, there are a lot of unique opportunities that Bezos can experience that almost no one else ever will.
Apparently, one of those opportunities includes getting to ride in a massive robot suit that makes him look like a video game boss or someone from the movie Avatar.
On Sunday night, Bezos attended Amazon’s MARS Conference, which focuses on machine learning, home automation and a number of other different subjects. During the conference Bezos got into a robot suit designed by Hankook Mirae Technology, a South Korean company.
While riding in the robot suit, Bezos made a joke about Alien, asking the audience why he felt so much like Sigourney Weaver. You can check out the robot suit below courtesy of Bezos’ Twitter account.
I just got to pilot an awesome (and huge) robot thanks to Hankook Mirae Technology. Nice! #MARS2017 pic.twitter.com/MvN6ghEYFi

In the least surprising news ever, the internet had a field day with the pictures and videos of Bezos in the robot suit. Twitter and various other social media outlets were littered with reactions to the suit, from comparing him to something out of Iron Man to making jokes about him taking over the world.
Bezos has taken Amazon to new heights over the past few years, and the company just keeps growing. Who knows? Maybe one day everyone will have their own massive robot suit to ride around in.
