i know that iron mn can fly but......his suit is made of metal. in a realistic sense, nobody could move that fast in a suit made entirely of metal. i dont even think anyone could move that fast in a suit made of iron. its just too hollywood unless he was extremel strong, then it would make sense

No no no, you`ve all got it wrong, ironman`s suit in the movie is composed of different layers, the layer beneath houses some very advanced hydraulic systems, they are very visible in some photo`s, they are the reason for iron man`s speed and agility, enhancing his strength multiple times. The metal part, gold-titanium alloy is the armour plating on the outside, but that isn`t to heavy for Stark Industriesi proprietary repulsor system to lift into the air. If you look at the story carefully you`ll see that the suit is actually made of revolutionary components designed for the Jericho missile.

Well, there are different kinds of metals you know. Some of it are even lighter and is more durable compared to iron. Just think of all the alloys out there like titanium. It's actually not that impossible. If you would just have a good and lasting energy source that could fuel the rockets attached to that iron man suit, well i bet you would be able to have enough velocity to fight off the earths gravity and finally fly up high in the sky.

well if you would have seen the movie with open eyes you would have seen the utilization of energy to produce the speed or rather the flying power of the iron man. Have you seen a plane, if you have i do not need to tell you that they are made of steel too and they can move pretty fast. you can also see when the energy is not able to sustain him in the air and he falls back down.

I've thought of similar situations in movies and I realize thats hollywood for you.
