I really don't know how that fits the product's function, but it was obvious to me. I think they should find a name in the neighborhood of Velcro; even though that is a name brand and cannot be copied.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mea]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 9th 2009 6:12PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/09/09/german-scientists-create-super-velcro-capable-of-holding-35-tons/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/09/09/german-scientists-create-super-velcro-capable-of-holding-35-tons/</guid><description><![CDATA[there already is a Velcro sport. You wear a Velcro suit - I am not sure which part the suit is and which part of the Velcro the wall is, but you launch yourself at the wall from a mini-trampoline and see how high you can go. You stick immediately to the wall and are velcroed there. Don't ask me how you are supposed to get down. I have never tried this but I would like to do this way more than regular rock wall climbing if I knew someone was going to get me down!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mea]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 9th 2009 6:12PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/09/09/german-scientists-create-super-velcro-capable-of-holding-35-tons/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/09/09/german-scientists-create-super-velcro-capable-of-holding-35-tons/</guid><description><![CDATA[thats a really neat invention.

It also looks like it can cause some damage if it comes in contact with skin.  It someone wanted to secure 35 tons it would be easier to weld it.
