Unfortunately, this team was unable to recover from this terrible loss...
How did I know what that was before I even clicked it?

Back on topic, during the 2012 build season, our team captain and programmer was testing some code while the robot was on a table. Unfortunately, said robot was also not on blocks, and the resulting crash was heard throughout the school. Many axles and a frame were badly bent that day, and a "robot no more than one foot off the ground at any time" policy was quickly put in place.
