1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,120
I might only be a man. Small, small man.

2
00:00:03,120 --> 00:00:06,960
But with one full day of professional lawn mowing experience,

3
00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:11,440
I think I can kick the ass of that robotic lawn mowing machine.

4
00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:13,760
Yeah, like you could even find its ass, you virgin.

5
00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:21,360
The Luba 2 All-Wheel Drive 5000X from our sponsor Mimotion will turn you to mulch.

6
00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:24,640
Is that a challenge? You bet it is. And here's your first one.

7
00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:28,800
Oh, great. You can mow a lawn, but can you mow a picture?

8
00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:34,560
And a scale drawing of the LTT logo. Why yes, I think I can. Let's go.

9
00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:47,280
The first challenge is all about precision. Linus will be using his push mower to mow the

10
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:52,080
LTT logo into this random dunes lawn. He doesn't have all day, but the name of the game here is

11
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:55,760
precision. So to help him, we provided him with these flags and tape. And we've already set a

12
00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:59,200
flag in the middle and at the edge of the mowing area, so he has an idea of what the radius is.

13
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:02,560
For me, this is easy. I just load up the app where I can change all sorts of settings,

14
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:07,440
like the cut height, pattern and mower speed. Then I hit this button and we're off to the races.

15
00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:09,280
Now I'm going to find something refreshing to drink.

16
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:14,960
He doesn't even know that we gave him a little measure thing. I just didn't tell him about it.

17
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:19,840
Damn it. Longer steps. Okay.

18
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:23,760
I've calibrated my steps. Every step like this is a meter.

19
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:28,160
This is going to be child's play. The play of a child.

20
00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:35,680
Have fun. Your team has the flag. Flag dropped. Your team has the flag. Flag dropped.

21
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:43,280
Oh, I didn't even know this was here. That would have been helpful or whatever. I'm doing paces now.

22
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:48,000
The plan is to map out my landmarks. So that there is this corner of the circle.

23
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:52,960
Shut up. Circles can have corners. So far it looks like we're off to a pretty

24
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:57,200
winning start with the robot, but I'm worried that once Linus gets going, he's going to have

25
00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:01,840
a lot of speed because look at how fast that thing goes versus if you have something with

26
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:06,880
like a big blade that you're pushing. I mean, at least I'm not breaking a sweat out here.

27
00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:13,680
Might not look like much, but I've got the concept of a plan here with eight flags marking

28
00:02:14,640 --> 00:02:18,320
the eight corners of a circle. Let's see if I can pull this off.

29
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,880
I mean, if the flag fits, I must have quit, right?

30
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:34,720
What's he doing? Is he not mowing? Okay. So then straight and gentle curve into this flag,

31
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:44,560
then steeper curve. What? How does that make any sense? Oh my God, this is way off.

32
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:53,280
This isn't even close. Oh crap. How's it going chief? Great. Never better. That's good. Oh my

33
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:57,040
God. Oh God. Okay. I'm not going to look at that. I'm just going to relax real quick.

34
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,640
How do you relax quick? It's not really relaxing if you're doing it quickly.

35
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:06,800
Boom. Power naps. Boom. Boom.

36
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,680
Oh shoot. It's not even close.

37
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:20,000
Oh no.

38
00:03:32,640 --> 00:03:46,720
Definitely getting in my steps. I had this idea where I was going to have like

39
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:50,480
the whole grid mapped out and everything. I think I give up on that. I just need to get

40
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:54,320
the edges of my circle marked. What are you doing? You're taking all your flags out.

41
00:03:55,280 --> 00:04:02,800
Look, I'm, I tried precision. Now I'm going free ball. See, that's what a robot can't do.

42
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:07,840
Creativity. I mean, a robot doesn't need to wear underwear. So why would it have to free ball?

43
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:14,640
That's when you don't wear underwear so your balls. This is how confident I am. I'm just going for it.

44
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:24,240
Seriously? You might have to lift it up, but you might have to lift it up a little bit. Lift it up.

45
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,960
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Oh, the cut height.

46
00:04:37,840 --> 00:04:40,800
Hey Sean, how's my circle? It's, um,

47
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:47,200
shut up. It's very circular. Um, there's, I don't get it. Is it in there?

48
00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:02,640
There. Can you see it now? It's, uh, you've got to be kidding me. That's a live view. Yeah.

49
00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:07,520
Hey, there's the part of the circle right there. What the hell? I can see it. You can see it and

50
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:11,360
make it. See, it's right there. You're doing great. We'll fix it in post. Yeah. Don't worry.

51
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:13,680
I mean, bring it close to your screen. Yeah. Yeah.

52
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:22,240
Also what might be, is that your cut height's not super even. The blade might be a little dull.

53
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:24,160
I did bring a file if you want to sharpen it.

54
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:31,600
I didn't know it was dull. James told me that when I picked it up from him.

55
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:48,640
I don't know how it happened, but I'm off by a whole meter from center on this side.

56
00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:50,240
So it's going to be kind of egg-shaped.

57
00:05:52,640 --> 00:06:00,800
One, two, three, four, five, six, boom. Linus, it's almost done. It's not about speed, Adam.

58
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:05,840
It's about precision. It's a little bit of both. And I think it's more precise than you as well.

59
00:06:07,840 --> 00:06:12,720
Two and a bit. At this point, the Luba 2 has finished the entire design and is now going to

60
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:16,640
go back and forth trying to mow the rest of the lawn. I guess we'll let it get a head start on

61
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:21,920
the next challenge. I finalized my plan. I'm going around with flags and then I'm marking where all

62
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:28,960
the flags are. This should give me enough landmarks that I can kind of eyeball the rest of it, I think.

63
00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:34,000
Okay, this robot might have been done 10 minutes ago and that might not look like much,

64
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:35,280
but wait till you see the result.

65
00:06:37,840 --> 00:06:48,960
Is this the L? No? He's putting it upside down. It's okay, we'll fix it in post.

66
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:52,800
No Ls here, boys. Only Ws.

67
00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:02,160
I'm just going to fluff up this area a bit. Did you accidentally mow too far?

68
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:04,880
That's why Jesus made erasers, all right.

69
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:17,760
I'm actually pretty proud of this. It's not bad. It's not perfect, but it's not bad.

70
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:23,280
It took you about an extra 30 minutes, but from here it looks really good, honestly.

71
00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:28,880
I'm pretty impressed. It's not like as good as the robots, but it's also a stupid competition.

72
00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:34,880
Who would do this? Aliens? I mean, maybe you're stuck on a desert island and all you

73
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:42,400
have is a robot and a lawn. Right. Okay, this could say SOS. I want a rematch, just mowing the lawn.

74
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:47,120
Fine, you got a second challenge. Let's do it. I really have to be on my tiptoes too. Okay, fine.

75
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:56,240
Oh man, the camera really doesn't capture it, but it's not bad. It's really not bad.

76
00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:59,600
So you got absolutely destroyed in that first challenge, but you have a chance to make it

77
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:05,520
up with challenge number two. This is just a full mow. Okay. Time is what's most important,

78
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:10,880
but precision also matters. I want to see good lines. Okay. Oh yeah. Sweet. Three, two, one, go.

79
00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:15,680
No, that's not, I do it. Three, two, one, go.

80
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:28,800
Go, go, go faster. Dude, all I'm missing is some cake and then this would be a cake walk.

81
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:35,840
I'm going to be done so much faster. I've already done as wide a path here, except I've done the

82
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:41,120
entire perimeter that wide and it's still just on the first couple of passes. Take that machines,

83
00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:47,920
making Skynet my bitch. Suck it, Adam. Yeah, okay. I'm playing Bellatra right now.

84
00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:53,760
Admittedly, the concentric square D-Leo that I have going on here is a little unconventional,

85
00:08:54,560 --> 00:08:58,560
but I think I'm going to lean into it rather than reverse course at this point.

86
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:18,000
Hey, do we have another battery for this thing? Did you run out? Oh,

87
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:21,520
we should have charged that on our break. He hasn't even moved. He's not,

88
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:27,920
he's not trying to help at all. Look at, get this. No, I'm trying to pause my robo. It's only fair.

89
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:31,760
So this bad boy just ran out of battery and that's something you don't have to worry about

90
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:37,280
with the motion because it will automatically go back to its dock to recharge itself. You don't

91
00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:51,280
have to think about it at all. I gotta say, as much as I'm obviously clowning on it in terms of speed,

92
00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:56,000
it's not by as much as I thought. Like that should be done in a couple of hours, I think, right?

93
00:09:56,880 --> 00:10:02,240
Probably less. And I get to just play Bellatro. Flush five, baby.

94
00:10:13,680 --> 00:10:20,320
Let's go. No way. Yeah, what's up now? No, but I put in so little effort.

95
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:24,720
I'm just upset I didn't get to finish Bellatro in time. Looks good. Good job, Linus.

96
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:32,400
Thank you. That makes this a tie now. That's a problem. Is it though? Because we didn't have a

97
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:38,880
tie breaking competition. Here, I have an idea. Whoever paid for this video is the winner. And

98
00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:44,800
that's our sponsor, Momotion. Way to go, Momotion. You're the winner of today's challenge. Yeah,

99
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:51,200
but I paid you. In a last minute upset, it turns out that Linus Sebastian is the winner. Way to go,

100
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:57,440
Linus Sebastian. Momotion paid me. In a last minute, last minute upset, upset, it turns out that Momotion

101
00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:00,320
is again the winner. Whoo.
