I teach everyone to refer to this as the plane of death.
So far our worst injury was when a mentor was tricked by the robot to punch himself in the face with threaded rod. He decided to act as the tower (from breakaway) as a quick test whether the robot could do a pull up. The robot let go while suspended... you can imagine the rest.
Anyone else notice how most of these stories are mentors??? People not thinking at all is a problem. People ignorant to risks is another problem. People thinking they have enough experience/smarts to disregard safety is a whole other problem (although it's the same as the second problem)...
