Micheal Bear Clair - Production, Graphics, Editing
Founder of MBC Productions LLC
From a long Career in the Music and film industry to his time as a professional wrestler and college president, Micheal Clair has always made it his mission to help and enhance the lives of others.
His work with at risk students at the Film school he founded in Gooding. Idaho, (Western States College) earned him two Volvo for life awards and a top 100 American hero award.
His music has won awards for films like Cost of freedom by 21st Paradigm films for which he won best score for a documentary film at two different film festivals, Seattle and Los Angeles.
His role as the Infamous Dr Squash while in the International Wrestling Alliance saw him injured many times, sustaining over 100 concussions and leading to him being treated with HBOT in Florida by Dr Edwin Zant, one of the pioneers of the HBOT movement. He recovered from near fatal Post concussion Syndrome. At that time of his treatment, he could no longer walk unassisted and was on the strongest Alzheimer's medicine he could take, (Excelon patches).
He was told by his doctors that this was his new normal and that he should prepare his affairs because the outcome was bleak. His memory was almost gone and he was struggling with severe depression and anxiety. He was also diagnosed with Chronic PTSD from the Injuries.
HBOT treatment saved his life and brought him Back to Life.
Along with his business partner Jim Batchelder the two run concerts, have a TV show in the works with ANGUS KHAN TV. They stay very busy with projects that also include this one very dear to Mr Clairs heart. He still manages to play music and record artists in his studio. He also plays in the Staff band each year for the Variety of Iowa Children's Telethon each March in Des Moines Iowa.
Operation: Back 2 Life is the brain child of Dave Rogers and Micheal Clair. Together they are working on new episodes and will have a documentary film released in 2020 that will be a groundbreaking film for the Veterans of the USA.
