This is hilarious. With each iteration he has less and less mobility.

Also, I find the car hit test disturbing. Sure, maybe it protects your limbs from breaking or joints from hyper-extending, but does it protect against your brain sloshing around inside your skull?

The most interesting aspect to me is that when he moved on to the (IIRC) "Trojan" system it was much more focused on ergonomics and mobility.

Heh, funny enough this showed up on reddit r/funny just last week. Here's the reddit comment thread [0]. From that comment thread I learned that there is 90 minute documentary about Troy and this suit titled "Project Grizzly" [1][2]
