Haha, we watched that over and over in the car ride in slow motion! Of course our operator had it on the highest kicker level! We are just glad that after our drive team ventured over to him after the match that he was okay. No team wants to be known as the one who sent him to the hospital! :o

For those who are wondering in our second finals match we turned our robot to kick to the near zone and kicked too soon and hit Dean Kamen right in the face from 10 feet away. It was a very hard kick and no damage was done! :)

Do you have the vid online?

Re: Dean Kamen on The Colbert Report (April 5th, 2010)
 

Or for those of us that don't, there is always hulu.com

Re: Dean Kamen on The Colbert Report (April 5th, 2010)
 

True. I think interviews are also posted on ColbertNation.com too, but I don't know the timeframe between airing and posting.

There's also a podcast up on PCMag.com interviewing him about FIRST.

That was unfortunate but kind of funny. He, in the spirit of FIRST, shook hands with his attackers afterwards as they apologized. He was a great sport like we all should be. :D

Post the video! It was funny and could brighten my day!

Re: Dean Kamen on The Colbert Report (April 5th, 2010)

Re: Dean Kamen on The Colbert Report (April 5th, 2010)

Re: Dean Kamen on The Colbert Report (April 5th, 2010)
 

Haha we might. :D We also have all the elimination matches and our qualifications to post online.

Re: Dean Kamen on The Colbert Report (April 5th, 2010)

Re: Dean Kamen on The Colbert Report (April 5th, 2010)
