As documented in the film Project Grizzly, Troy Hurtubise is the North Bay, Ontario inventor who built a protective suit that would protect him in a mano-y-mano encounter with a bear. These days, Hurtubise has his eyes on an even more incredible project. He built a device called the Angel Light that he says can see through walls. From BayToday:
Hurtubise said (reps from the French Government) were so impressed with the eight-foot long device they paid him $40,000 in cash to put the finishing touches on it. The French, Hurtubise adds, have also agreed to pay him a "substantial" amount of money for the technology if it passes rigorous tests in France.
"They couldn't believe what they saw," Hurtubise told BayToday.ca.
"One of them told me it was as if I'd discovered a new universe."
Gary Dryfoos, a consultant and former long-time instructor at MIT, said "there's a Nobel Prize" for Hurtubise if the Angel Light really performs as described.
"There are laws of physics waiting to be written for what he's talking about," Dryfoos said.
