Troy Hurtubise is my hero...

If you've never seen it, you need to rent the documentary "Project Grizzly". This is a movie that follows around a guy for several months whilst he completes construction of and tests his 6th attempt at a bear-proof suit. There are a few scenes of pure physical comedy genius as the guy (Troy Hurtubise, if you forgot to read the subject line) brings out some archive footage tests of prior models. But far better than that are his monologue scenes, especially towards the end. Without the delivery, or the setup, it doesn't sound that great, but when a man talks about threatening a grizzly bear that "as sure as god made little green apples, I'm going to take both of these (bowie knives), and shove them right up your ass, and that's a fact"... that's not something you soon forget. So, my advice to you, again, is to rent "Project Grizzly". If you're a little off kilter, or at least find amusement in other people who are, you'll love it.
