    Is it possible to make a magnetic suit? To either levitate human or slow down human free fall? Maybe we can first consider this in an ideal way, just scientifically how would it work????

    Magnetic levitation requires that you have two like pole fields of sufficient intensity to support the weight. Maglev is confined to very short distances. A suit alone, whatever the strength of its field, cannot levitate or even slow down free fall in the weak magnetic field of the earth.
    A maglev demo:

    That is a curiosity generating video 😐 I didnot get why the two magnets didn't attract or repel before pouring 'something', and what was that 'something' poured there #-Link-Snipped-# sir.

    That is liquid air. The effect is seen below a critical temperature. As can be seen towards the end of the video when the magnet slowly comes down as the black rectangular block warms up.

    So in the maglev trains do we use very high end electro magnets or some super conductors

    Cause they as a matter of fact are the most stable things I have seen here

    Watch the movie Mission Impossible 4: Ghost Protocol
    There is a scene where a guy jumps down a cooling tower and is caught with the same mechanism you are talking of. Don't know if its real but you should check it out. I can't find a clip of it on YouTube.

    Yes, they indeed do. The control of the power to these on the track is what causes the train to move.
