This is officially the most awesome use of one of those robotic arms that I've yet seen.
The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.

That's pretty good, even though I'm only Dutch by descent. Reminds me of a good friend who programs automation for a living.

Now, to see the OTHER side of the coin regarding a welding robot, go find the music video for "Believe" by the Chemical Brothers. :wink:

See I'm hugely impressed by the idiotic balls of the rider, but deeply saddened by their choice of Duran feckin Duran.

I've seen this clip before somewhere...I was a bit concerned when the thing seemed to almost break his neck..

I think that the video content and corresponding choice of music neatly and concisely describes the Dutch :)

That's because in Holland, you really have to go the extra mile in order to appear crazy by comparison

Duran Duran is wrong, no matter where you're from....

Yep me too, In the beginning he came awfully close to smacking his head on the floor. It worries me a little if someone just a couple inches taller were to ride it. :?

EDIT I watched the video again it looks like his hair almost skims the floor. :shock:
