You know what it's like. You do the prep, you measure everything, you charge the cordless drill and then you line it all up so that set of shelves you're putting up are just about the perfect example of DIY handiwork this side of a B&Q advert.
Except of course you don't. They're wonky. And there's brick dust coming from the wall. And someone next door is screaming.
Well, imagine that times 10. Or 25. That's what this man felt after his lovingly constructed robot was beaten on Robot Wars.
...By a team of children.
The man, called Ant, was captain of Team Behemoth. He was apparently angry his team had opted for a new grabber weapon rather than a tried-and-tested scoop set-up.
He later said: “Putting a grabber of that type onto the robot for a critical match was a very poor decision. The main reason I walked out was that I was so annoyed with the rest of the team for making the decision not to go with a guaranteed win with using a scoop has proven that sometimes innovation doesn’t pay out. Sometimes it’s best to use what you know works.”
Either way, not the most gracious moment in TV history.
