This the most dangerous robot I've ever built. It's also the most massive, with the most destructive pair of hammer smashers and the most menacing set of googly eyes, along with some other surprises. because I was challenged to a robot battle against five dudes I know, but this was hardly a fair fight because it would be their five robots against just one of mine.
and given that the only rule was that there are no rules. As you might expect, things escalated very quickly with a few surprises. Cody: It’s the coolest thing i’ve ever seen A good bit of danger You got to do what you got to do and a lot of carnage.
Cody: ohh sh. . .
And since the winner of the battle got free reign to completely redecorate the loser's headquarters, the trash talking commenced immediately. How are you guys feeling? Tyler: If you get past Garrett, I'll be shocked.
Mark: Wow. Mark: what you don't even think I'll make it to the final round. Tyler: Home team's got to feel pretty good.
about it, too. Garret: Im at about a 2 to be honest with you Cody: Fake it. Sparky: All right, gentlemen, I want a clean fight.
Sparky: I want to abide by the rules. Mark: there are no rules. Sparky: Exactly.
Let's battle some bots. What do you say? Tyler: Let's do it.
It was time for the dudes to lay eyes on what would be their undoing. Gentlemen, the cybertank Wooahhh. Dude!
wait. Does this violate a rule Tyler: No No. No it doesnt Mark: oh right So with the lack of rules fully established, it was time for the cyber tank to start mercilessly working her way up the dude chain.
Starting first with Cody. Cody: May i present to you R2D2 from a galaxy far, far away came the first challenger Mark: wait i think there’s a height issue Tyler: Is that as much as the door opens up? Cody: It doesn’t fit.
Alright hold on Tyler: Did you not think about the height restrictions Cody? Mark: Guys this is a bad start Tyler: we know Mark were not smart Coby: yeah We get it But once we have the droid, we were looking for, Cody: Enable taser Cody: Alright Marky Cody engaged both his taser system Mark: wow and his squirt gun system dudes: ohhhh in an attempt to short circuit my robot. But unfortunately for the dudes.
Mark: The cybertank is water proof Tyler: ohh he’s still alive dudes: ohhhh OK Mark: but that mustache there is not just for decoration Because what they didn’t realize is that with a simple motorized retraction of a quarter inch steel cable cyber tank's fashionable mustache doubled as a nine pointed, razor sharp ramming bayonet. Mark: I promise this will be quick and painless Dudes: Heyyy Tyler: Mark Stop! Mark: Ramming speed Tyler: Do something Cody: Seriously stop!
Tyler: Hey, you might want to take a look at what’s inside R2. Do we have the live feed? Mark: That’s in the robot?
Cody: it’s inside the robot Dudes: YEAHH Tyler: you can’t attack! ! And while we did say no rules, Turns out it was an oversight on my part.
Thinking the Geneva Conventions still applied, Tyler: surrender and not risk a squirrel’s innocent life And so with my controller turned off Tyler: Dump your water Cody: ok ok ok ok Cody overconfidently decided to take a cheap shot, Dudes: what ohh Tyler: You missed! You missed Cody: I’m sorry im new at this which unfortunately exposed the inside of his empty robot, Mark: wait which meant the live squirrel video feed was just a clever ruse. And nothing gets me more angry than getting clever Rused So I got back to work, Dudes: Noooo!
Ohhhh! Cody: He pork chopped me Garrett: get away, get away, get away Cory: Run away, run away Dudes: ohhhh and I didn't come home from work Cody: I’m alive. I’m alive.
I’m alive. I’m alive. dudes: ohhhhh until there was no doubt Cody: I’m cut in half Coby: He’s still alive Dudes: ohhhh who won round one.
Dude: ohhhh Tyler; you’re scewered Mark: your mistake was involving the squirrel Dudes: hahaha and with that resounding victory. Coby: we’re taking it up a notch brother. hope you had fun with that one Mark.
it was time for my next victim. Tyler: Welcome to round 2 mark, here we go boys Cody: C’mon Mark: two at once. Oh Oh.
It was twin robots for the twins, one with laser guided retractable harpoons and the other packing four angle grinders and an aerial assault drone. But I wasn't worried. Coby: you ready for this boys?
3,2,1 Dudes: ohhhh Cory: yeahhhh Mark: ok this is kinda tricky to track both Cory: were not a trash can Mark Cody: That’s rude Mark: Get over here Cory: I do not like his eyes on me Coby: brace yourself. 3,2,1 fire Dudes: ohhhhh Mark: oh harpoons It seemed like their goal was to harpoon me, then wrap me up, then grind me down. which made it the perfect time to introduce my countermeasure, known affectionately as the War Hammers.
Powered by a pair of 24 volt DC motors, these babies are capable of independently delivering over 1,000 pounds of force to anything that dares oppose them. If they could easily rip through watermelons and smash up solid concrete, they would have no problem dealing with the set of pesky twin bots. Tyler: hey stay away from those Mark: Ok Coby: i’m fine he can’t reach me Mark: yeahhh Cory: You are flirting with him Coby: i’m fine Dudes: ohhh Mark: ohhh Tyler: ohhh don’t flip it over And while I focus on cornering twin one, twin two launched Operation Glitter Drne, Mark: what is that?
Cory: it’s a glitterbomb Mark, maybe you’ve heard of it a glitter infused black powder surprise designed to penetrate the cyber tank's armor shell, Dudes: Ohhhh Mark: ohh wow Tyler: Take that Mark Dudes: ohhhhh Mark: How dare you? luckily for me, I got a plan for this. Say hello to my tassels.
Coby: Oh, heads up kid Mark: yeahhh, hahaha Coby: you might want to drive your car. Tyler: Watch out Cory! Noooo Mark: yeahhh, hahaha Coby: how was he prepared for that Mark: Honestly, it was the lucky guess.
When in fact it was not a lucky guess because in keeping with the spirit of no rules, the week prior, I placed a drone in a servo actuated box then had a fake delivery driver deliver the fake package to Dude Perfect headquarters. So when they all went home for the day a little aerial recon work made Anticipating their plans and designing effective countermeasures like anti-drone tassels powered by four 24 volt leaf blowers. Fairly straightforward.
Mark: ohhhh Tyler: I gotta say, the streamers were a nice touch. Cory: Why are you clapping for him Tyler: It was clever. game recognizes game.
That was nice. Coby: cmon but I was done playing nice. Tyler: Oh Cory: I can't see, I can’t see Coby: Oh heads up Coby: this is bad, This is really bad.
With the drone out of commission, I now had to face the harpoon, Cory: Help! help mom Garrett: Fire, Fire! Coby: I’m Going for the wheels which unfortunately for me Coby: ahhhh Garrett: Shoot Mark: ohhhh Dude: Ohhhhh Let’s goo was now securely fixed in one of my tires.
Mark: Now I'm angry. Coby: Here we go. Their plan was to wrap me up with the harpoon line and then incapacitate me Star Wars style so they could angle grind off my war hammers, right back.
Garrett: wrap, wrap Coby: Let's go. which is a brilliant tactic Mark: Oh, it's the wrap Garrett: I don't think it’s doing anything Coby unless you have even a basic seventh grade understanding of the rudimentary laws of physics. Dudes: ohhh Because the relative mass of my cyber tank ensured the retracting harpoon line would just pull him closer to me, on.
Coby: Oh he’s dragging me. Dudes: Ohhhh to be perfectly in line with the Warhammer Dudes: Oh, no. and while battling twin 1.
I noticed twin two appeared to have stalled out. So I readied the nine point mustache bayonet to finish the job. job.
Mark: Charge! Coby: Get out of there Dudes: ohhhh And that's exactly when I realized it was a trap. Mark: I’m stuck And they had once again, clever rused me, Yeah.
Coby: Grind him because now that I couldn't move off the wall, I was a perfect sitting duck for the angle grinders to get to work. Oh, Dudes: ohhh Mark: noooo but thankfully, overconfidence seemed to be the theme for the day. Coby: Ramming speed Cody: use him as a ramp Dudes: ohhhh nooo Tyler: what are you doing?
Mark: I’ll take it. i’ll take the assist Now that my war hammer arm was significantly weakened, my attempts to fight back Dudes: ohhhh led to disastrous results. Tyler: Ohh he broke the arm off And with the tide suddenly strongly surging against me, I was left with only one option.
Mark: I was going to save this for later but i have no choice Because pushing that button sends an RF signal that triggers a small DC motor on a cam that will then dispense copious amounts of glitter bomb fart spray. And if you place that whole contraption in a fake battery and then bribe a dude perfect team member to place it in the dude's driving box before the match, You suddenly make things much easier on yourself Mark: You got to do what you got to do Dudes: charge, woah, get him Tyler: Fart spraying Mark: it’s bad Dudes: yoooo Coby: i’m leaving Cody: Mark, that’s a dirty move Mark: There’s no rules. I can smell the fart spray from here this is rough and with no one left to stop me.
the rest was pretty straightforward. mark: ok i’m unstuck. let’s just get this guy right here mark: for a nice conclusion to round 2.
it’s hammer time mark: yeahhh how dare you come against me Cody: youuuu, youuu Dudes: noooo Mark: yeahhh mark: and that fols is round 2 And so while the febreeze worked its magic. And Sparky attended to the clean up on aisle twin. I challenged the dudes to a five round, rapid fire Crunch Labs toy faceoff Tyler: This is nice.
I get to beat you twice in one video. Mark: woow starting first with our version of Rock em Sock Em robots. Except it's squirrels.
And we learn all about the power of hydraulics. Mark: Ohhh, the left hook Coby: got’em upper cut. Send him home Garett: boom boom boom boom Tyler: pow pow pow poww Cody: That's one.
Next up was trampoline skee ball, where the first to nine wins. But if you miss, they all reset using the engineering principle of levers Cody: to high Coby: one more. one more Garett: Cmon Cory Garett: Get your mind right.
Yeah. Dudes: yeahhhh Mark: These are my toys. Cody: This is what we do for a living, though.
Then it was onto airball where the first to catapult their ball to get stuck in the air stream using the quantda effect wins. Cody: I bet Mark loses Mark: first one into air wins. .
Dudes: ohhhh Tyler: Three. Thats Three Garett: Let’s gooo. yes.
yes. yes Cody: In your face. Woooo Coby: pound it Cory: Threee Mark: Next Then to a coin spinner battle where we explore the power of ratchets Mark: Go Coby: Cmon ping me Cody: Cmon Coby Mark: Yessss Cory: Nooo Mark: 2 losses in one day.
that’s got to hurt. Final battle. And finally to the carnival duck shoot!
Three. Two. One.
Go! Where thankfully, Cody distracted himself with a different target. Dudes: Ohhhh Mark: there we go.
Thank goodness for the three point finale. So if you want to build and play with any of these super fun toys, all while learning how to think like an engineer at the same time, just scan this QR code and head over to CrunchLabs. com.
Now back in the arena, it was round three against the purple Hoser himself. Let me see what you Garr Purple dozer. Purple dozer.
Purple dozer. Oh. Dudes: Ohhhh Tyler: Ohhh yeahhh It appeared to be some kind of small purple bulldozer with two front mounted nail guns and two in the rear, which to be honest for their pen-ultimate robot seemed a bit underwhelming.
That is, until this happened. Tyler: Ohhh. Flame Him.
Ohhhh Garrett: Get him. get him baby get him. yeahhh Dudes: Ohhhh get him The flamethrower was melting my tires, Dudes: Flame him up warping my googly eyes.
Dudes: Ohhhh causing the structure to heat up to the point where it became weak and ductile. Dudes: ohhh Mark: My arm which is why it's always handy to equip your robot with a 10 pound bottle of liquid CO2 at 800 psi. Because when the cryogenic solenoid valve releases Fire will lose to ice everytime Dudes: ohhhhh with the fire threat neutralized.
Now I just had to disable the nail guns. Dudes: Awww Cory: Your Nail gun. nail gun down That was one.
Now the trick would be taking out the other three, while at the same time Tyler: Now There it is. There it is Garrett: There it is Coby: Get him. hit him Mark: Nooo protecting my tires from the nails.
Marks: Ahhhh Dudes: Ohhh That was two. But it cost me an arm. mark: get back here Tyler: Nail him Nail him yeahhh Dudes: Yess yeahh mark: oh noo nail gun Garrett: You stop running from me Number 3 was easier than anticipated And at this point, with no arms left, Dudes: Ohhhh Coby: Dude you’re bending it I would have to rely on the cyber stash.
Cory: Shave his mustache dude And there was number four. Mission accomplished. Mark: You got no flame you got no nail guns Garrett: you got me, you got me But this is where Garr threw me a curve ball.
Garrett: I have programed a self-destruct button. Garrett: Will you do me the honors of pressing it? Mark: why wouldn't you have just programed it onto your remote?
Garrett: I'm not smart, which was a solid point. And yet he was smart enough know my Achilles heel. Mark: I’m nothing if not a very curious individual.
Mark: I can’t not push the button Tyler: I know you can’t Mark: I can't help And so trading caution for curiosity. The cyber tank mustered the final strength in what little remained of her crumpled right arm. Coby: maybe, like, three taps Tyler: Yeah.
Yeah! Dudes: ohhhh Dudes: yeah. Mark: Where did that come from Coby: Got him with the button trick Things were looking very bad for me at this point.
Mark: This is all I got man Tyler: I still want to go. and with the cybertank buried and bruised under an actual pool table. Dudes: Let him in Tyler: Let’s go.
yes Tyler chose to kick a man while he's down. Dudes: Yeahhh! Coby: eat!
eat! Tyler: ohhh! let’s go baby.
ohh. ohhh the final bot not only wielded a 30 pound swinging axe that could easily turn the pool table into firewood, Coby: what’s on the front of your thing But the 63 pound slug of steel on the front Tyler: watch this, boys? Mark: That's just gratuitous.
Dudes: Ohhhh. Could reach a max angular velocity of 4500 RPMs Cody: dude’s are we about to win this Dudes: yeah we are This was very bad news. Bit by bit, the dude systematically ripped apart the cyber tank.
Dudes: ohhh Just like a greedy child ripping open a Christmas present, Dudes: ohhh wielding a giant axe Dudes: Ohhh gooo And with one final degrading parting shot, Coby: Shave the stache Dudes: goooo They shaved her mustache Mark: The mustache Tyler: We’ve done it The celebratory confetti felt a bit premature and insulting, you. Mark: Really confetti given the ref still hadn't given us the final call. Tyler: We're not even engineers, Mark.
Tyler: you lost to a bunch of uneducated scribe. How do you feel? Honestly.
It's disappointing. Tyler: I bet it is Dudes: awww Mark: it's disappointing You guys actually thought I wouldn't have engineered a backup plan, lights Garett: what? Mark: soundtrack.
Mark: trap door Tyler: No. Coby: What Cody: Oh, look at it Lifting. Mark: may I introduce you to Cody: there's a bot in the bot Coby: Nooo Cory: what?
Dudes: ohhh Mark: yeahhh Tyler: Oh okay. That's right. Inside the Cybertruck all along was my Trojan rat.
Saved for just such an occasion like this, What makes fat tail so special are those two unassuming prongs on the front. Because inside there's a 16 pound flywheel that's spinning at 3600 rpm. and when these two solenoids forces clutch against the flywheel, that then twists up this bundle of super strong cords, which makes them get shorter, which then actuated this rack and pinion, causing the nose of Fat tail to raise with an incredible amount of force.
The force is so great. In fact, it can launch a 250 pound payload 20ft into the air. ohhhh These anvils literally damaged solid wood beams on my ceiling.
And if it could do that to a few 50 pound anvils, Just imagine what it could do to something built by dudes who make ping pong trick shots for a living. Dudes: ohhhh Coby: Oh this is bad. Tyler: Hey don't attack yet.
Tyler: We gotta reset. We gotta reset it. Tyler: Sparky, clear the arena By the way, we signed a bunch of the busted robot pieces Sparky is cleaning up here so go watch Dude Perfect’s video to find out how you can get your hands on some of it.
Mark: Ok. Final Match Cory: Bring it Rober Coby: Mark i need to know something. Is this the last robot?
Dudes: hahaha Mark: hahaha This was it. No more twists, no more turns. Tyler: Spinner engaged Just pure carnage.
Mark: Lets goooo Coby: cmon Ty, yeah baby run the wheel Dudes: Let’s gooo Cody: That was quick Mark: i’ll do you a favor and spin you back over Cody: Ohhh Tyler: That one hurt Dudes: Ohhh Cory: Oh that’s insance Garett: no no no no no Coby: spin your wheel Dudes: Ohhh Cody: That’s the coolest thing i’ve ever seen Tyler: Oh i’m alive. i’m alive. i’m alive.
Cory: Yes. Thank you. Thank you.
get him Ty Garett: Get away. get away. get away Coby: rip him.
rip his head off Mark: Ok Ok Cody: hahaha Coby: I hate this Tyler: Noo Dudes: Nooo Mark: yeahhh Cory: ohh I dont like this Coby: I dont like that Cory: You just need one good punch Cody: Use your axe Tyler: Im trying Cory: Ohh that was cool. That was cool Dudes: ohhhh Mark: that’s for the confetti It was time Tyler: I’m fine. I’m fine Dudes: ohhhh to finish this.
Cody: you’re not fine Mark: let’s gooo with more of an engineering trick shot. Dudes: ahhhh. Oh my gosh Mark: and stay out with the board cleared, Fat Tail was free to play with her lifeless prey.
To the dismay of the losers. Cody: Ohhh. oh you’re still good dude Mark: oh nooo.
Don’t hit my tail ahh One last throw couldn't hurt. Dude: ohhhh. Mark oh no Or maybe it could.
Tyler: Hey guys. I think we lost Garrett: This is our white flag. We throw it As you can see we legitimately damaged the walls of their actual warehouse Sparky: That’s a TKO.
Mark Rober Robot battle champion Garrett: You reputation was on the line Mark: I think umm. . the only thing left Tyler: we still got to do that Mark: You boys better get to work Cody: Hey, get in there nice and deep like Coby: We're trying.
Mark: Hey fellas. You’re missing a spot Tyler: we're doing our best, Mark. We're not painters.
If you’ve ever wanted to know how to make and build really fun things. CrunchLabs has you covered because for kids we've got build box and then for teens and adults we've got hack pack. In both cases, they get delivered right to your door where we build them together and learn all the really cool science and physics that make them work.
With Build Box, we set the foundation by building a super fun mechanical toy each month, which makes it a great first step for learning how to think like an engineer. Then for Hack Pack, we take it up a notch with a really cool robot that will work right out of the box. No programing required, but then as a fun incentive to dig in and tweak the code.
We make it easy to level up the robot's capabilities using the online coding module. So if you want to enhance or even just take the first step of unlocking the really fun and rewarding hobby of making stuff, just go to Crunchlabs. com or use the link in the video description where to say thank you.
We're giving away either 1 or 2 boxes as a back to school special. Thanks for watching.
