You don't have to share it because they've already seen it, that's the beauty of the entire thing. It's already gone "semi-viral" through robotics social media.
Shutting down the "robot kids are total nerds" persona would go a long way into bringing robotics into the mainstream (see: Battlebots), and Mr. I Am is helping do just that.
If you're worried about role models using swear words, you should listen to coaches (including some famous, fantastic mentors) behind the glass. There's a time and place in our culture for swearing, and Mr. I Am nailed it.
