Paul Knight Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 was that your third attempt? or first? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cannon Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 was that your third attempt? or first? I think he only did one. The vid shows the gripper coming out of the box and then he appears to go stop the camera. Confidence I guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timstruse Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Yep, it was the first attempt. My first try is usually my best, so I just opened the box and let 'er rip. The goofy overcrush at the end was just my paranoia that the close might not be captured clearly enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malice Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 The goofy overcrush at the end was just to prove I'm a bad ass gripper destroyer. There, I fixed it for ya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cannon Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 The only other time I've seen the MM handles close that fast was on Acorn's cert video. And we know where he ended up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I realized later that it had to be his first cause of the unpackaging .. oh and Malice - that cracked me up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timstruse Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Haha, thanks guys. Being compared to Aaron on grippers is a pretty amazing compliment, so I really appreciate that (but not yet worthy). Speaking of Aaron, just got back from his place, where he was dragging a 300# sled around by a pinch block - I think the guy's a little nuts.
