Invention Sees Through Walls

Troy Hurtubise has done the seemingly impossible with his newest invention and defied all known rules of physics, he says.

The Angel Light—Hurtubise claims the concept came to him in a recurring dream—can reportedly see through walls, as if there was no barrier at all.

That’s not all, though. Hurtubise, 41, said the device detects stealth technology.

And he’s done the tests to prove it, with the covert help of scientists at the famed Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Hurtubise said.

If that’s not enough, Hurtubise also said the French government sent representatives to North Bay to witness a demonstration of the Angel Light.

Hurtubise said the reps 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.

The French aren't the only ones interested in Hurtubise's innovations.

For $10, I'd teach the French the meaning of soap, water, and deodorant.

Big deal. I invented something that allows you to see through walls.


I call it a 'window'...

I'd do it for free if the frogs would throw in a gas mask.

I call it a 'window'...

We'll have to race to market, I have developed a competing technology I have named "an open door". It has the additional side effect of making a decent ingress into a structure.

Figures the French would go for this, bunch of perverts.

[so_real]

From the article: “That’s when I realized there was a Hyde effect, as in Jekyll and Hyde, and I dismantled the whole thing.” ... uh huh ... sure ...

[thoughtomator]

It has the slight side effect of congealing your innards, but the French wouldn't notice it, their senses already overwhelmed by bad perfume, body odor, and the odor of decomposing grandparents.

I wonder how hard he's working to get this thing mini-sized to fit somewhere near a college dorm.

What thought processes lead to this series of events?

But a strange thing happened to the car, once it was hit by the Angel Light beam: it stopped working.

Hurtubise returned to his lab and began testing the Angel Light on other electronic items including portable radios, TVs and a microwave over.

“They all stopped working,” Hurtubise said.

....

Hurtubise purchase a remote-control plane for $1,800 and took it and the Angel Light to a flying field on the way to Powassan.

....

Then Hurtubise put his hand in the light beam.

"Hmmm.... everything I aim this thing at quits working... I need to go buy an $1800 remote control plane to test that out.... Now, it's doing something that I don't understand when I aim it at these things, why not put my hand in front of it!"

[dfwgator]

Bill Clinton has already ordered one.

I heard this fellow interviewed on Coast to Coast about an hour ago. He did not sound extremely professional, he admitted to that, but he had a glimmer of pure authenticity about himself.

This may be a story to follow.

[need_a_screen_name]

Wasn't it the Stones or someone who had a song ages ago where an ultaviolet light was mentioned? Nothing new under the sun.

[geopyg]

This comment sure makes it sound funny. I use ground penetrating radar and other tools to "look" into the ground. I called a guy that uses thermal imaging to detect air-filled voids behind a retaining wall (which he did). He mentioned that the government has tools that can "see through walls". I said I've heard of thermal imaging of people behind walls, but he said "they have LOTS better than that". Not sure if this guy "knew something" or if he was just proclaiming his paranoia.

[thoughtomator]

Disguise it as modern art.

[RandallFlagg]

OK, I just read this part:
Hurtubise purchase a remote-control plane for $1,800 and took it and the Angel Light to a flying field on the way to Powassan.

He directed the Angel Light beam toward the sky and started the plane flying.

"On the first loop it came around, passed through the beam of light and fell right to the ground,” Hurtubise said.

Nope. I wouldn't allow either the french NOR the saudis to get anywhere NEAR this thing!

[beyond the sea]

I wonder how hard he's working to get this thing mini-sized to fit somewhere near a college dorm.

There's a place here in Pittsburgh where we can place it, as is, in a nice secluded wooded area behind the darling girls' dorm at Chatham College. Perfect.

This guy has come up with all kinds of weird stuff like the Ursa IV
