Searched edit
Searched for Gravity Boots and was redirected to an article on bondage, I do not beleive such an automatic redirect would be made. A google search reveals the correct meaning to be some kind of exercise equipment which allows one to hang upside down. Even if the other usage is also correct, there should be a disamiguation page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.111.245.93 (talk • contribs)
Why does Uri Geller need to generate new ideas? And doesn't Dan Brown get all his ideas off other people's books, so why does he need gravity boots? Georgeslegloupier 03:52, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
George Michael clip "Freedom" edit
To the person who added this: I'm reverting your edit because you provide no link or other context. If gravity boots fit into "Freedom", then by all means please go ahead and put the information into the article in the correct context. But an unliked phrase plunked in the middle of the See also section ain't gonna cut it. Twisted86 05:29, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
Pop culture edit
I think whoever put this in did so as a joke. This article is about exercise equipment, the Star Trek reference is to a hypothetical boot that would allow one to counteract zero-g. This is not a pop-culture reference to the item under discussion. If you want a pop culture reference, how about Richard Gere using them in "American Gigalo?"

- I agree. I edited that to point out that it's not the same kind of gravity boot, but I think that the whole section should be eliminated. Maybe stick it under Artificial gravity? 68.0.213.222 13:43, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
I could not verify the Jade reference - there are over a hundred actresses called Jade and there is no movie called "Well Hung". There are, however, "Well Hung Amateurs" series, but I haven't found any starring any Jade. Could somebody please verify this reference and/or give more information? No reason to keep it if it's false. 60.241.197.166 (talk) 12:48, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
Arranging pop culture references edit
These are probably added as people think of them, I think it would benefit the article to date the release of all the various media with references to gravity boots, so that we can arrange them in order of appearance. I am also wondering, whether it would violate any copyright laws to create a montage of all the various clips (in order) from these media where gravity boots are demonstrated and/or mentioned, since they are relatively short clips out of the media in which they are shown.

Betty & Veronica cartoon-- permission by author secured? edit
This is clearly a copyrighted work and I have not seen any copyright release from the author. Does one exist? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aneides822 (talk • contribs) 16:10, 7 July 2014 (UTC)
