The team was penalized for exceeding the 72x72 box - it was too long to even fit on a diagonal. They pulled themselves over. For some reason, the gripper didn't let go and as they backed away, over they went.

Actually what happened was the pneumatic tubing that we have to supply the gripper was rapped around the spider leg and when it finally let loose, our driver took off only to get caught with the gripper on the popped tube. Then then pulled out our extension.
