For some reason I'm thinking that isnt safe. :ahh:

Re: pic: Strong Lift
 

nah, its safe enough ... for the guy on the left who is walking away

Re: pic: Strong Lift
 

as Tom said, it isnt safe...

... But... WOW, how much does that kid weigh?

PHOTOSHOPPED!!!! :ahh:

Re: pic: Strong Lift
 

For some reason, I'm thinking that's photoshoped, judging by the angles of the light on the tetra+student. :p

Re: pic: Strong Lift
 

Something tells me photoshop had a hand in this....

Re: pic: Strong Lift
 

What is that building you are in and what are those two enormous cylinders on the right?

Re: pic: Strong Lift
 

Ahh, you can see the ground under where he is sitting.

Good photoshop job tho, probably the best I've seen on CD.

Re: pic: Strong Lift
 

You should have put Justin in the tetra. :)

Re: pic: Strong Lift
 

Is that a freshman in that tetra?

Re: pic: Strong Lift
 

I agree, I don't see any big clamps connecting the base of the arm to the stools. Without them, it would tip for sure. Plus if that kid was like that, the guy on the left would be staring in awe, not walking past unamused. Is that floor concrete? If so that kid would get hurt on the fall to the ground and the batteries charging to the left are going to get damaged.

Re: pic: Strong Lift
 

I think so too, just look at the way the kid is setting.(no suppot at his butt) :cool:

Re: pic: Strong Lift
 

Very funny, but around where he is sitting, there is white patch. This area didn't get cut out well enough in Photoshop. Also, the kid is a bit disproportioned. Good job, though.

Not to mention, this:

is their robot. Unless, they were fooling us?!? :)

Re: pic: Strong Lift
 

Actually, that is their bot. If you look closely, you will see that the link is their "finished" bot, and the other, was before the two outer arms where attached.

Re: pic: Strong Lift
 

i call your bluff, unless those benches are lead painted to look like wood, there is no way that it wouldent tip, even for how close the tetra is to the center of the base.


sorry, but my vote is photoshopped

Re: pic: Strong Lift
 

I'd like to see it flip that tetra like a frisbee......

:rolleyes:

It's the Neutral Bouyancy Labratory (NBL) part of Johnson Space Center. It's where the really big pool that astronauts train in is located. Those Cylinders are space station parts or mockups of space station parts that go in the pool with the astronauts so they have something to play with.

very interesting teaser for us all-- i hate heights so i wouldn't have volunteered for that one ;)

nice lift though--keep up the good work and be safe don't let ppl fall on you while u'r just standing there smiling...

Time to go add "Become team 118 mentor after graduating college so I can see some awesome things" to my list of things to do.

Re: pic: Strong Lift
 

I believe it's a true picture ;)
I just doubt that the arm would not fall over. If you look really close you can see the Aramid Fibers attaching the top of the arm to the Sky Hooks (tm) :D
They probably have steel rods in the PVC pipes to keep them from bending or that's a very light student :rolleyes:

Re: pic: Strong Lift
 

moment calculation anyone?

Re: pic: Strong Lift
 

if you look close, you can see the floor the kid in the tetra is sitting in........

100 percent photoshoped

(ps...next time cut the floor out, or make it look like there is something actually holdiong the tetra together.....

Re: pic: Strong Lift
 

Yea that must be sooo cool to be around that stuff.

Re: pic: Strong Lift
 

photoshopped for sure. but i think if it were real it would be the best lifter ive seen. nice job.

Re: pic: Strong Lift
 

A pro can do ANYTHING with photoshop, they can doctor a photo and totally change it, yet keep it so realistic that it's nearly impossible to tell that they did. One of my teammates created a very convincing image of a nuclear reactor blowing up.

Re: pic: Strong Lift
 

Photoshopped

If you look close enough it appears that there are 2 clamps holding the pole onto the lift. :ahh:

Re: pic: Strong Lift
 

It's definitely bogus...

Re: pic: Strong Lift
 

Our entire team got a good laugh at this photo :).
