Actually, she starts at 5 feet. We had originally wanted to go with 4, but to reach all spider legs we had to go to five.

I think the claw itself has only ripped one, when were testing to see if it could rip them at all. The ones in the background were victims of human player "practice" and...sumo wrestling. The only way it rips the tubes without the drivers doing something dumb is if it gets caught in the back of the claw and gets pinched; we're planning a strategic piece of rubber to prevent that.
