I caught wind of a similar device recently declassified by the US government last week, but neglected to post it as the footage I saw was not that impressive, nor was the suit very cool looking. This however, is much cooler, Japanese, and is created by a company called Cyberdyne...seriously. It is called HAL (another reason that it is badass), or Hybrid Assisted Limb. According to its makers, the suit can increase the strength of the wearer by about 10 times. The potential created by these types of products are amazing, and as mentioned in the video, they are working on developing artificial limbs with similar capabilities as well as functionality with the HAL suit. Beware, the white finish and glowing blue lights may reassure you that nothing bad will happen as you observe it's faculty, but that is just to allow the user to get close enough to snap your spine.
