oh yeah, this guy sleeps with different supermodels each night.

seriosuly though, i respect someone who puts a lot of work into something relatively useless moreso than someone who half-asses something until it just barely works

I'm very disappointed to see that he hasn't actually taken a picture of any of his armour on a cat.

Yeah, actually trying to put this on a cat would be even crazier than making it in the first place. Still, if you were going to try, it might be best to wear some armor yourself.
