The Jaws Of Life (referred to as the Power Suit) is a signature rescue exo-suit equipment, seen in many episodes of Thunderbirds Are Go!. It is a robotic exoskeleton that covers the upper body, the spine and the legs. They greatly enhance the strength of the user, allowing them to effortlessly pick up heavy items at the scale of tons--weight too heavy to be lifted by even the strongest human beings. They also aid in scaling various structures, and can also allow one to safely pick up items of extreme temperatures harmlessly.
The hands consist of a strong crab-like pincer claw on the right that can crush rock and metal, and a telescopic three fingered claw on the left for more precise and delicate grip. The device has a black and yellow colour scheme, resembling the pattern on typical barricade tape.
There are many Power Suits, Not only did Thunderbird 2 store one inside Module 2 and 3, but one could also be found stored within the Explorer, there is also a variant seen in Inferno and Firebreak configured specifically for fire-related rescues.
