MICHAEL JACKSON - JACKSON PATENTED GRAVITY-DEFYING STAGE BOOTS

Reclusive pop superstar MICHAEL JACKSON has a secret past - as an inventor. The THRILLER singer registered an idea for a pair of gravity defying concert boots that would allow him to wow fans by leaning over at extreme angles without toppling over. According to the US Patent Office, where the pop star registered his idea, Jackson suggested the boots would slide onto knobs dotted around the stage, allowing him to appear to defy gravity during choreographed parts of his show.
