They cover: Troy’s near-fatal first encounter with a grizzly and how it sparked a lifelong obsession The evolution of his absurdly overbuilt Ursus bear suits, tested with trucks, swinging logs, and baseball bats His later inventions, from fire-resistant paste to the dubious Angel Light x-ray beam The Trojan ballistic armor suit that looked like Halo meets RoboCop—and still failed to sell His tragic, cinematic death and why Quentin Tarantino calls Project Grizzly one of his favorite films Plus: cinema verité rants, powdered wigs and blues dancing in Montreal.
