Title: You shouldn't watch this video. Really, don't open this thread.

You were warned. I still hurt from watching this, at least on the inside. I don't even now why I'm spreading this. It's gotten to me somehow. Last chance, click away.

Non-robot related, but still involves hacking/electronics.

The rest speaks for itself.

When in doubt, add 13 extra batteries then spray them with water cooling fans.

Oh..... My..... God.....  :o

As soon as he started to speak I knew it was going to be bad, but I couldn't look away due to morbid fascination. 

I can see why you wanted to share this, though. This video is like a bad practical joke- once you fall for it, you can't resist playing it on your friends  ;)

You can tell what's going to happen simply by analyzing the complexities of his haircut.

LOL I doubt that's legal on most roads in any country. The steering wheel looks like it would pop off any second, and it looks  really sloppy.

Definition of the mad scientist.

And there are no real regulations on Michigan roads.  If it has a motor and a bumper, you can drive it.

As a self proclaimed mad scientist, (look at my name) I take offense to that statement. We still follow best engineering & scientific practices, we just try to take over the world with what we build.

That guy is just 'mad'.
