Robot Wars is what made me want to get into robotic engineering.

Unfortunately I wasn't a smart kid and wasted my youth, just as I continue to do to this day! :)

The episode of Battlebots I watched had a team with two robots: a little hover drone with a flame thrower and a little guy with a mini flipper. They were going against a bot that was assumed to be a contender for the championship title or whatever. The guy leading the two-bot-team was like "Yeah, we're going to run straight at them and there's going to be a lot of physics involved and we're going to hit each other and whichever robot is working after that will win! :downs:"

They hit each other, both went flying through the air... and the mini robot was still working :)

It was pretty awesome, not sure how the new Robot Wars is
