Rare 90s Clip of Man’s Protection Suit Begins Massive Halo Vibe Before Xbox Even Existed!

Xbox exclusive series Halo has gained a cult status among millions of fans across the globe. There’s a reason for this as well, given the sheer passion many players have for its lore and characters, especially the protagonist Master Chief.

The towering super soldier has become one of the most popular gaming heroes of all time ever since he made his debut in 2001’s Halo: Combat Evolved on the original Xbox. But it looks like the man was already having a time-travel experience five years before the official launch!

Man’s grizzly bear protection suit from 1996 looks unintentionally identical to Master Chief from Halo!

A Twitter account, psychotronica, recently shared a rare clip from 1996, of a man who tried to make a protective armor against grizzly bear. According to the tweet, a man named Troy Hurtubise made a suit to defend himself against the deadliest attacks of a bear. Instead of looking like a regular armor, however, this creation ended up having a Halo connection to itself.

The clip shows the man taking critical and lethal hits from nearly everything while getting all possible kinds of damage. The main purpose was to test out the durability of his suit.

Although the clip dates back to 1996, it can be termed as an origin story for how Master Chief‘s appearance came into existence.

Even some fans had this exact thought while dropping their reactions.

As soon as the clip went viral, some of the users came up with the wildest replies. While few of them were wondering about the safety of the inventor, the rest of them wasted no time in making quick comparisons. Looks like the only image they could think of after watching the protection suit was of Halo’s Master Chief.

Even if it’s a clip from five years before the first Halo game came out, it’s really mind-boggling to find this kind of similarity. Probably that’s the reason why the aforementioned throwback video has amassed almost five million views so far.
