there are some pretty creative inventions coming from Israel.
One Israeli invented a *bleep* pack belt that the elderly can wear.
It inflates when the person falls down, therefore preventing a broken [injured] hip.
It's called Hip-Hope.

I would love to go to Israel and visit with the people there, see all of the historic places as well as the Holy Land. The people are so nice looking too.

So does it have some sort of sensor to know that someone has fallen and that it needs to inflate?  Sounds kind of like a pedestrian airbag!

I'm glad you're touting Israel and its businesses, or perhaps its entrepreneurship.

I have stock in a company (not a lot, of course. I'm not wealthy) from Israel that I bought specifically just to feel I was supporting the country in my own small way.

What did they bleep here? F-a-n-n-y? Ha, ha. The censors crack me up sometimes.

The Bike people who refuse to wear helmets have a head airbag that inflates when the person  crashes their bike. It's pretty silly big thing around your neck....  Here is what things were when I was a kid... back in the day!

I have always want to go to the Holy Land.  Maybe someday I will have enough money to do so.  Hope everyone has a good day and may God bless each of you and keep you safe. :)

That's awesome. I didn't know there were a lot of new inventions coming from Israel. I would like to visit there someday.

I would love to visit Israel as well as some other places in the Middle East but it is such a mess right now I would not feel safe.  I think it may be some time before it would be safe to visit, and in the meantime, so many artifacts and so much history is being destroyed either by Isis or by war.  I feel very bad for those who are innocent over there.
