Discovery Channel Show "The Big Brain Theory"

[JohnFogarty]

So recently I turned on my TV....something I rarely do.
I watched this show new to the Discovery Channel known as "The Big Brain Theory" and lo and behold they were holding a "Robotics Challenge." So I continued to watch and found out they had three challenges to make a robot to complete with 4 days to do it and a $10,000 budget.
All of the competitors looked to have degrees and had high "IQ's" as shown on the screen.

Here's the full episode...

Here were the three challenges...
Challenge 1: 100 Yard Dash
Challenge 2: Javelin Throw
Challenge 3: Standing Jump Distance

All I could think about watching the end was....Senior FIRST Robotics High School Students could do better. What are your thoughts?
