The suit was already up for sale on eBay after the military snubbed it, it didn't make the reserve either.

Typical american "invention"; Take an existing invention and stick on a clock and/or weapons.

... that he doesn't team up with Kevin Warwick. Speaking of which, how IS Captain Cyborg these days? Upgrading himself to Vista or something?

Does anyone else watch Stargate? (Or is that a stupid question to post on a geek news website :) )

Anyhow - I've seen this armour before - It's one of Anubis' Kull warriors;

Very cool looking though - I'll get myself one after I find my stormtrooper armour.

The outpatients have been busy I see.

After the video I'm still doubting between cruel joke and incureable insanity. `pepper spray with 1% capsicain will take out a man but not a bear --- how to take out a bear, or 30--40 insurgents? 3% spray!' Mkay...

I guess the `world clock with 20 locations' on his crotch clinches the verdict. Loveable YouTube comments though, `someone push this muppet in a river and see if he floats'...

Does this suit protect the wearer against heacrabs?

Hey - we Americans don't lay claim to this looney (and yes for those who make the connection between the inventor and the coin of his realm, this is an intentional pun). He hails from the fair province of Ontario in the Great White North.

And by the way, Troy has the market cornered in bear safe wearables - there's precious little competition in the sector.

Is it just me or does the guy look like a Power Ranger?
