      In theory it’s a possibility. Although, in an evolutionary sense, it’s not something that we need to be able to do so it would be unlikely to evolve naturally.

      Yeah but that will take thousands and millions of years to achieve. Its better to design a bodysuit(something similar to Ironman’s) which won’t take as long and give us the same pleasure, freedom and more range to cover distance.

      Haha! Thats definitely one of the best questions I’ve seen! Like the guys said, we’re unlikely to evolve the need for flight (we’re far too heavy!), but theoretically it would be possible over time. I’m not putting myself forward for that one though!
