Real-life Iron Man ticket handout

To launch the museum on 22.02.2022, the UAE Government Media Office flew British jet-suit inventor Richard Browning over Downtown Dubai to hand the first tickets to onlookers. The stunt was built for social and earned coverage and framed the building as a global science landmark rather than a Dubai attraction.

The idea
