An Invisibility Cloak For REAL?! 7 Ways We’d Totally Use It!

An Invisibility Cloak For REAL?! 7 Ways We’d Totally Use It!

Harry Potter fans, rejoice! Going invisible could soon become a possibility, thanks to research by scientists in the US. They’re calling it an “ultra-thin invisibility ‘skin’ cloak” – which can be wrapped around an object to make it difficult for the naked eye to spot.

For the uninitiated, an invisibility cloak is what boy wizard Harry Potter used to good effect in J.K. Rowling’s series. It kept him away from people he wanted to avoid and got him to places he wanted to be – undetected. Here’s what we would do if we got our hands on this brilliant invention…

1. Merry Ex-Mess

No more bump-ins with that pesky ex you’ve been trying to avoid. Cloak to the rescue, please!
