ATTENTION:KEEP THE RINGERS OUT THE REACH OF SENIORS

[Armando Gonzalez]

This is a note to all FIRST teams around please PLEASE keep the ringers out of the reach of seniors. As you can see in this video they can be very dangerous.

PS: Well this guy broke the controller board of our last year's bot . . . hopefully the only thing he will break this season is himself.

[Richard Wallace]

That's good! I look forward to meeting you at Boilermaker, by which time you really should try to get that guy under control.:D

[Alex Burman]

Just remember: Safety FIRST.

[DanDon]

Apparently he felt that wearing ringers is akin to "being surrounded by safety." :D

[Pavan Dave]

Just remember: Safety FIRST.

Its JUST a little bit of harmless fun, eh?


Pavan.

[r.pesquera]

Too bad he's my cousin.......

If only he had put 3 on…

[JaneYoung]

If he had 3, you could have rolled him around the room. :)
Edit: Wearing safety glasses.

Ok you guys, you have to be careful, even when you are having fun..don't let him break himself.

[r.pesquera]

Do other teams have videos like this one?

I'm sure we'll have a lot more coming.:D

[eshteyn]

Thats hilarious, today we had our mentor sit on our ramp system to check it out. We gave him a 50 pound weight and he is not exactly a small man. About 6 foot 3 or 4 270 pounds and watching him get jolted by the system was unbearable without a oxygen mask, i hope ill get the video up very soon

[EvilMonkyPirate]

I'm suprised a few kids on my team haven't tried that yet but then again the mentors have tried to hide the ringers from us. lol. most likely to keep us from doing things like that.

See you in Indiana. Good luck.

[r.pesquera]

This video was un-planned by the way........SPONTANEOUS.

[Robo_Coyote]

we have two Moving GIF pics like this called Knight Fight from last year ill see if i can dig them up

[Jay Trzaskos]

On that same note, Keep ringers out of reach of team leaders... (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=2470572879956817023) Only three days into build, and 229 has alreaady lost it's mind.

[Kapao69x5]

I don't know what got into me, but it sounded like a good idea at the time. Also don't use a dolly as a skateboard.:ahh:

[Choi9111]

Wow he seems like hes the comic relief of your team. lol Half of our team jokers so we pretty much have fun in everything we do!

[boy_scout72688]

ok i have to say that was amazing. Its going to be sad to see what the volunteers do with these tubes at regioanls huh!

BTW saftey FIRST is the best way. But do have fun!

[Zero-Bee]

I like wearing the inflated ring and my hawaiian shirt together. I'm practically Dave.

[ZeetherKID77]

One of our mentors shocked himself last year when he was connecting the battery. Ironically, this year he gave a speech on electrical safety. :p

Also, the Ringers are NOT lifesaving devices. :p

[r.pesquera]

yeah i think the video states that.....

[Armando Gonzalez]

I was actually shouting "DON'T FALL YET, DON'T FALL YET . . . . LET ME TURN ON THE CAMERA"
Quite funny.

[chris31]

Wow, He fell kinda close to all those nice flat screen monitors.

[mtaman02]

Well between the NYC & NJ Regionals last year we had some fun with Poof Dodge Ball, Poof Soccer & Poof Basket Ball, Maybe this year we will play horse shoes or something :p

[manuelmedina]

What ever!!
