I'm just glad one of our engineers caught it. Can you imagine what would happen if that chain would break under load

We have some pretty sharp engineers.
I wonder if there are any teams without technical back-up that could conceivably build a dangerous robot. There are a lot of stresses and forces that need to be considered (torsional, tension, shear etc).
Also, Lions and Tigers and Bears. Oh My! But that's just a fairy tale
My advice, please be careful.
