Like this guy wants to FIGHT grizzlies or just survive an attempted mauling? If you want to fight grizzlies, idk if the spikes on the gloves are going to cut it. Maybe a good football helmet would work for the head or does that require another 8 iterations of development too?

Just survive apparently. I needed answers as well so i looked it up. Seemed like an interesting guy. Died in 2018 unfortunately. Dude had a bunch of crazy inventions and won an award for the bear suit. Search troy hurtubise if u want to know more. And the suit does include a helmet that looks just as wild. One of the replies to a comment has a link.

If the goal is to survive perhaps a steel cage on wheels would be better 🤷🏻♂️ or a tank, or just a car. What are the rules?
lemelisk42 t1_ixwhhaf wrote
Designed to get mauled by bears, not fight em. He wanted to be able to test bear spray and do other research on them up close.
One of the largest problems with his earlier suits was that they were too intimidating - so he had a difficult time getting the bears to attack him. He filmed a movie with the mark VI, and went to the rockies, but failed to get mauled. He later arranged to get into a cage with a grizzly and a kodiak. Both refused to maul him.
And yeah, he had a helmet. One that was comically large in comparison to the suit.
Sadly he died in a car crash without ever managing to get mauled by a bear (atleast to my knowledge)
AholeBrock t1_ixwhj1n wrote
But how is the goal "just surviving grizzly attacks" and not "causing grizzly attacks and surviving"? Like how many minutes does it take to put that suit on and what work can you feasibly do in it BESIDES provoke and survive a mauling?

The suit isn’t the product. He used the suit to test bear spray.
CosmicCreeperz t1_ixwri9l wrote
So, provoking grizzlies and then temporarily blinding them. Sounds like a nice guy.
squirrelbeanie t1_ixws5w2 wrote
Jesus fucking… what is it supposed to even be?
AholeBrock t1_ixwt14l wrote
What does the spray do that you can't test it without also using the suit? Like surely you can test if bears are repulsed by pepper spray without ever putting yourself in danger. It all just sounds like extra steps to justify picking a fight with a bear. It's not like bears are actively hunting us and you need to suit up to go do maintenance on infrastructure anywhere near the forest because they are so highly aggressive.
AholeBrock t1_ixwtswt wrote
Like, I'd just set up cameras watching a pile of the grizzlies favorite food. When the grizzlies approach the food they trigger a trap that sprays the surrounding area with spray. See if they are deterred or if they power through to the food.

Wouldn't it be some grim irony if he died because he forgot a seatbelt or the airbag didn't deploy.

What happened to Mark 1-7? I hope they’re alright, sure it’s a pretty common name, but at some point we’re going to start running out of guys named mark to feed to bears.

lemelisk42 t1_ixxescz wrote
Actually, he tested the suits in part by having people drive into him while he was wearing it. He had a truck hit him at 50km/h a whole bunch of times in an early version. Sadly he wasn't wearing it at the time of the crash - but yes, It probably would have saved his life. It was tested for crashes.

That is insanely well done!

If I was a grizzly and I smelt crap I'd just walk away. But if I wanted to maul a guy, he'd have to smell really really bad to not want to power through.

BROTHER, HELP, I CAN'T SCRATCH MY TESTI-CALEES
AholeBrock t1_ixxkn7s wrote
pepper spray to a bears nose is like getting kicked in the balls. They can smell for miles, and even further after the rain. it's a very sensitive organ. I've also lived in bear country most my life and in my head it is way easier to get a bear to back down from a confrontation than from a meal. At least that's what I've been taught. To always act loud and big and chase them away from town, but always turn the other way and leave if you come across them fishing.
spderweb t1_ixxlh30 wrote
Fair enough. He also invented a death ray, if I recall. It was basically an unprotected x-ray gun. I read mentions that you could see through objects with it, but that it would kill flowers, etc that you shot it with.

The bears made it look like a car crash, they couldn’t let him finish his research!
In all seriousness it sucks that accidents take so many cool people out of the world, cars claim many lives

I've got a death ray too. Anyone i shoot with it will die within 1-120 years, no survivors!

tucci007 t1_ixxy24d wrote
the reason he started making these suits was because he was mauled by a bear.
Troy Hurtibese, R.I.P. I have seen a doc or two about him and don't recall seeing any bear cage matches
they did a lot of crazy high speed/high force crash and smash tests though, with him inside the suit
tucci007 t1_ixxy6y1 wrote
Troy Hurtibese, R.I.P
Simpsons did a parody of him after he already had made news with his suits
lemelisk42 t1_ixy0cx8 wrote
The original bear attack was the inspiration. The cage matches were done after the documentary had been filmed
OtterProper t1_ixy582h wrote
After all that, and he merely died a grisly death?
OtterProper t1_ixy5fjl wrote
Smart money's on 1-7 dying by grizzly, but I hear this #8 guy bought it in a car wreck. So, just plain grisly. 🤷🏼♂️

His color scheme is all wrong. If he is going to no wear a helmet at least he could used the Space Wolf color scheme. Mostly because they are all basically allergic to helmets.

WHAT IS THE SECRET TO TORTOISES' DEATH RAY IMMUNITY????
Angdrambor t1_iy8a9uh wrote
My guess would be that it sticks up like that as a kind of roll bar, to protect the neck. A helmet stops impacts or claws, but it doesn't stop the head from being twisted clean off.
