An inventor who dubs himself the ‘real life Tony Stark’ has gone viral online for the amazing gadgets he builds, including a Spider-Man ‘web shooter.’

Vitalii Romanovich Kardash, 26, from Ukraine, posts videos of his creations – and now plans to build an Iron-Man style flying suit.

Vitalii, who has a degree in robotics, has racked up tens of millions of views on TikTok, where he has more than 256,000 followers.

A strand of ‘web’ is fired from Vitalii’s shooting device. The video shows the thread is strong enough to cling onto household objects and pull them towards the Ukrainian inventor

The web shooter fits onto the user’s forearm and has a button that is activated when the middle and ring fingers curl towards the palm of the hand

Marvel character Tony Stark uses his genius and billions of dollars to develop gadgets and become the superhero Iron-Man.

And, like Stark, the Ukrainian technology wizard is using his expertise to make the fantastical crime-fighting devices from superhero movies a reality.

Vitalii’s video show him demoing his Spider-Man web-slinging device, hovering above the sea on a flyboard and whooshing along on a remote control mountainboard he created.

He said he’s now working on his biggest project yet, a suit with 18 electric jet engines which will allow him to fly – just like Iron Man.

Vitalii said: ‘My activity requires knowledge of robotics, physics, mechanics, programming, and knowledge of the properties of metals.’

Vitalii’s next big challenge is to build a ‘flying suit’, taking inspiration from Iron Man

Vitalii said: ‘I made irrigation systems at home, the lighting system, the Spider-Man web shooter, and now the flying suit is in my plans.

‘My main goal is to create cool inventions, and share my achievements with people.’

He added: ‘As a 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥, I was fond of electronics, mechanics and physics, and at the age of 12 I designed a hot air balloon.

‘I flew up two metres, because my parents wouldn’t allow me to go higher.

‘After six years of university, I graduated from a private academy of robotics where I learned how to programme microcontrollers, servos, stepper motors and all kinds of sensors.

‘My first large invention was the electric mountainboard in carbon fibre with a remote control function.’

He added: ‘My activity requires knowledge of robotics, physics, mechanics, programming, and knowledge of the properties of metals.’
