I'm all for the Exoskeleton Olympics proposed by NewScientist.com. The way I see it, it's the only Olympics I really have a chance in. One event would be the Tetsujin weight lifting competition, another would be a sprint. The high-jump would be interesting since Dean Kamen announced he built a device for the military that lets you jump onto a five-story building in 1.5 seconds.

Coolest-Gadgets.com has a nice round-up of possible contenders including this full suit from a good cause, a deafening military power assist from UC Berkeley, a Mech built to terrorize neighborhood dogs, and the best Stormtrooper suit ever (by Cyberdyne.)
