A Canadian inventor's trying to market this suite to different investors. By the looks of it, I'm not sure how it works, but it sure looks cool.

Looks cool, but i spose he had to be careful that it didn't look to much like Master Chief's suit, or Bungy might have sued!

But imagine fighting and then that thing comes out into the battle field, i think the enemy would crap themselves!

You know, I have to give this guy credit. He's been around a loooong time. The discovery channel has been following his inventions for years and they make some good points;

Yeah he's a little odd and enthusiastic, but his inventions do actually work, if not so practical. He's made the bear suit (not really sure why still), flame proof resin (very cool idea) and blast proof foam.

So I don't think he's looking so much to say, "hey! buy this!" I think it's more along the lines of "take me seriously, challenge it if you must but pay attention i've got some good ideas".

He's always fun to check in on. Check out his bear proof suit...pretty funny when he tries to get attacked by bears and they won't have anything to do with him. Watch him pounce at them hidden in garbage at the dump. He's a believer.

The future... is now. :grin:

I wonder how this performs against upcoming body armor like "dragon skin" (as seen on FutureWeapons). :-?

That looks pretty damn brilliant! I'm not supporting war in any way but stuff like that would make future conflicts look stylish!

Yeah, it's still pretty cool. It just needs better armor around the joints, because once the sniper figures out that your neck is open, Bye Bye.

Also, one of those motion enhancers they built to help the elderly and disabled walk.

I personally thought it was called that because of his first name.

I figured that, but I was just being a smart ass since the super soldiers in Halo are called Spartans and they use MJOLINR(spelling?) armor.
