A Sweedish inventor named Moses Shahrivar has created a new garment to keep motorcyclist safe on the roads. Airbag jeans. As you’ll see in the video below, it’s just what it sounds like. The custom made jeans have airbags that can be deployed if a rider sees he’s in trouble. My brother was in a bad motorcycle accident several years ago and thankfully was wearing a helmet. But he suffered severe scrapes and cuts to his legs as he laid his bike down. I gotta think these airbag jeans could have saved him from his injuries. For now, Shahrivar just has a prototype of this new pair of jeans, but hopefully it will hit the market soon. He’s been working with Harley Davidson for years, so hopefully that’s a natural ‘in’.
