If you actually watched this entire video, thank you so much. This was a lot of work from everyone above. If you could share it around I would greatly appreciate it. If you're grandma, grandpa, aunt, uncle, don't know what FIRST is, show them this video and hopefully they get it.

This was fantastic!!! This did an incredible job of explaining and showing what it means to be an FRC team! In my opinion this was much better than the recent “More Than Robots” documentary.

Wow! That's a lot of praise. I don't know if its as good as "More Than Robots" but it means a lot that you think that.

This is awesome! Fantastic editing and really funny. Also super surreal to watch being an alumni from 4381 and being at that event to see a different perspective (I am the guy in the orange hat with long hair you can see during elims). Can't wait for a potential sequel with a slightly different outcome 😉

Just started my first year of FRC after my brother convinced me to do it as well. FRC robotics is one of the best experiences of my life. It is such an inclusive, spirit filled, amazing community to be a part of. If you have the time and work ethic to try out FRC robotics, I highly recommend it to anyone. The skills you learn throughout the competitions are so valuable.

OH MY GOSH!!! Thank you so much for watching! Like I said in the video you guys are one of my personal favorite teams. Really hope we get to see you guys again next year! Also, playing with a guitar in 2019 is one of the coolest things I've ever seen.

Dang, this really felt like looking in a mirror for my team's season this year, to a scary degree. This is the first FRC video I have found that truly captures the comp experience, I know I will be watching this again sometime. Thank you

Hey, Great video! I love watching frc teams compete. One problem that I saw with yalls robot/drive team that also happened to my team a lot, was the intake. If y'all leave the intake down and it crosses the barrier of the robot, it is a penalty. So make sure to watch that in future games!

1 hour of talking while making this “documentary” is crazy! I enjoy this video so much. Good luck Red Storm Robotics!

I'm only a few minutes into watching this, but I just gotta say; this is BRILLIANT marketing. I can't believe there hasn't been more videos like this, you also were able to market it exactly as the sort of video that goes viral. If your video continues as good as the intro is, then I think this is a better explanation for FRC than the More Than Robots documentary was

This was such a great video about robotics I honestly wish there were more videos like this since it could greatly boost the popularity of FIRST since threes been a boom in robotics videos like from mark robber, Michel reeves, William Osman, and IDAT

Nice Job. It took me a while though to figure out your team number. It should be in the video title, at the beginning of the video, and on your shirts. I Have mentored 3 teams over 16 years and the number is just as important in your branding as your name. Good luck this year!
