ATTENTION:KEEP THE RINGERS OUT THE REACH OF SENIORS
 

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.

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

Re: ATTENTION:KEEP THE RINGERS OUT THE REACH OF SENIORS
 

Just remember: Safety FIRST.

Re: ATTENTION:KEEP THE RINGERS OUT THE REACH OF SENIORS
 

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

Re: ATTENTION:KEEP THE RINGERS OUT THE REACH OF SENIORS
 

Its JUST a little bit of harmless fun, eh?

If only he had put 3 on…

Re: ATTENTION:KEEP THE RINGERS OUT THE REACH OF SENIORS
 

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

Re: ATTENTION:KEEP THE RINGERS OUT THE REACH OF SENIORS
 

Yeah . .. . well in the next video we'll give that a shot

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

Re: ATTENTION:KEEP THE RINGERS OUT THE REACH OF SENIORS
 

Do other teams have videos like this one?

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

Re: ATTENTION:KEEP THE RINGERS OUT THE REACH OF SENIORS
 

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

Re: ATTENTION:KEEP THE RINGERS OUT THE REACH OF SENIORS
 

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.

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

Re: ATTENTION:KEEP THE RINGERS OUT THE REACH OF SENIORS

Re: ATTENTION:KEEP THE RINGERS OUT THE REACH OF SENIORS
 

On that same note, Keep ringers out of reach of team leaders... Only three days into build, and 229 has alreaady lost it's mind.

Re: ATTENTION:KEEP THE RINGERS OUT THE REACH OF SENIORS
 

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:

Re: ATTENTION:KEEP THE RINGERS OUT THE REACH OF SENIORS
 

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!

Re: ATTENTION:KEEP THE RINGERS OUT THE REACH OF SENIORS
 

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!

Re: ATTENTION:KEEP THE RINGERS OUT THE REACH OF SENIORS
 

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

Re: ATTENTION:KEEP THE RINGERS OUT THE REACH OF SENIORS
 

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

Re: ATTENTION:KEEP THE RINGERS OUT THE REACH OF SENIORS
 

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

Re: ATTENTION:KEEP THE RINGERS OUT THE REACH OF SENIORS
 

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

Re: ATTENTION:KEEP THE RINGERS OUT THE REACH OF SENIORS
 

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

Re: ATTENTION:KEEP THE RINGERS OUT THE REACH OF SENIORS
