Seeing Troy in action

We’ve had many requests about film of Ig Nobel Prize winner Troy Hurtubise, the man who built and personally tested a suit of armor meant to be impervious to grizzly bears. The National Film Board of Canada has just prepared a DVD version of its feature film documentary Project Grizzly, which is all about Troy.

Penn Gillette, a man not given to hyperbole except when he chooses to be, once described this film to us as "the best documentary ever made." We’re not sure we’d disagree.
