Re: pic: FRC Robots are the best mode of transportation!
What was it Darwin said? Something about survival of the fittest by nature killing the stupid ones? The point is, the person on the robot knows the risk, and was going to try it anyway. Safety is important, but sometimes you just have to try something. You could have the safest robot around, but just from everything on the robot, there still is a risk to doing anything. Those who don't understand the risk and ignore safety are the recipients of the Darwin awards, but those who do understand the risk take precautions. Anyway we just see the guy on the robot, not anything else. For all we know, the guy could be photoshopped on or have a paramedics standing by in case something does happen.
