A couple weeks ago I was demoing a few of my robots on a table and I
accidental left Stryder Jr. on when we proceeded to go outside to demo
the solar stuff. As I walked back in I saw him on the floor and almost
had a heart attack! All I could think of was what was broken and how long
it would take to repair =( I picked him up and he didn't even have a
scratch! I was very surprised that he could handel a 3' drop! I was
almost inclined to drop him again from a higher distance to see how much
he could take before falling apart but I decided against it.
