A $650 Theragun massager is the crux of an alleged multimillion broken promise between two former friends - 'Dude, my heart just sank to the floor'
Briefly

A lawsuit has been filed by chiropractor Michael Wasilisin, known as Dr. Mike, against Therabody over patent claims related to massage tips that he designed. He alleges that he was not credited as an inventor on patents for thumb and wedge tips despite promoting Therabody products extensively. Initially, a handshake deal promised him a boat as compensation, but he has yet to receive anything, leading to claims for damages and patent corrections. Therabody's legal team has disputed the claims as meritless.
I trusted him because we were friends. The original agreement was that when they became successful, they'd buy me a boat—and the bigger the boat, the more I helped them sell.
According to Wasilisin, he held up his end of the deal but claims he has yet to get the boat—or any compensation from Theragun sales, despite promoting the massage devices to his millions of followers.
