Well, my sister is forgetting the fact that we were still in the endzone
we landed on a ball outside of the playing field... no part of our bot was touching the ground... some call it luck, i call it skill... i planned it that way... actually i didn't realize we were falling until the power was cut.
We may have "fallen Over" but we did not block the bridge or cause any harm to our allies
