We Build Awesome

[bibliaotradiciones]

Haha Awesome!

[HeliosWorksAV]

It was people like Chris when I was growing up that inspired me to get into science and design when I grew up - seems far too few people doing that now these days - hats off to the Geek Group.

[Intosia]

haha awesome!

[KimCarsonNOW]

Love that kids face!!! You do such good work there Chris!

[thegeekgroup]

@ndiboomer Fixed ;) Website is undergoing growing pains.

[ndiboomer]

GO MOM! I'm not sure if she enjoyed that more than her son, but WOW - that was a great reaction. And a new member!

[djrock9000]

Awesome video editing. Love the rewind. You guys and gals are doing amazing things. This is just the beginning! :)

[DruidicRifleman]

Like the first time a kid tries a full auto Paint ball gun

[DactaDork]

GIBRONEY NARRATES

[PhxSt0rmz]

Its always fun wow'ing kids with high voltage =) Priceless! If i had to get a pacemaker I would be devastated..I like making it, too much...

[NGinuity]

Watching that kids face made me cry a little to see how happy he got, and I'm not ashamed of it. You're right, that reaction is payment enough and it's a great feeling. He's hooked for life.

[MrSciencetificsasuke]

When do we get to see Gibronni's CNC warning sticker video montage?

[Clarachk]

The magic that Tesla Coil sparks in this kid is pretty priceless.

[fegolem]

The best kind of shock therapy! For Science!

[fegolem]

How about a link to the kick-a-buck in the description cause I'm too lazy to type it even though I just typed this whole comment sigh

[experimentboy]

Hahaha, it reminds me of my friends at high school when I bring my tesla coil, Ok the streamers are "only" 20inches long but they're always amazed to see lightning from so close :D (and let's face it, it gives me some good reasons to get better marks in physics :P )

Their enthusiasm makes mine ;-)

Cheers from France ! Love you guys !

[Hisart1]

There ya go, another brain shocked into Geekdom! That's what the Geekgroup is all about! LOL

[mtdeezy]

I liked the little speeches Chris used to do about how the geek group donations work better than that new cartoon that you guys play. The dull, green-grey colors, and drowsy, unenthusiastic voice - all I hear is "I'm getting payed to narrate an advertisement to ask you to give us money." It makes science look like a scheme to make money. I know that's not how it really is, and you guys are awesome people who just want to help others learn, but Chris says it better than that cartoon.

[thegeekgroup]

@mtdeezy No, that's just how Gibronni talks....you're right through.....we're making a new version now. Thank you :)

[deathstarnhb]

@mtdeezy I like the cartoons. They always put a smile on my wife and my face. I kind of want to see the montage of the Haas safety animations. The time Chris showed it I couldn't stop laughing.

[NoNameC68]

Donate your children to the geek group -- for science.

[HomeDistiller]

liked, faved, and shared :D

[CorbyStarletCj1]

Excellent small clip, His expression is priceless.

Good work guy's and gals keep it up !!.

[MadManMarkAu]

I love it how he says "Well I am geeky." Totally reminds me of myself at that age :D

[tamboone]

Tesla coils are AMAZING. I`ve made a little one myself

[coolbam14]

Ugh I wish I could visit you guys someday but I live in California.

[weeruz]

@coolbam14 Looks who's talking.. Try getting there from Sweden.. :P

[Serostern]

@weeruz Yet another sweede? Damn, soon there are more of us than brittish, and I think we already outnumber the 'Stralians.

get in the IRC (#Thegeekgroup at freenode - google freenode webclient) and have a chat with me and the other Scandinavians =)

[Serostern]

@coolbam14 Angy came back to france from a visit. California to GR is nothing.

[thegeekgroup]

@Serostern Don't forget Ollie and Jo from the UK, Oliver from Belgium, and many, many others.

[Serostern]

@thegeekgroup I will never forget Ollie, and I would love to meet him and throw him in a sauna with a bunch of us vikings =P

[coolbam14]

@Serostern Problem is that I am a 16 year old and I don't have a big budget. Just discovered Geek Group last week.

[MetalZeat]

I really need to get back there

[OreoTheWolf]

Haha, excited kids have the most authentic reactions. He'll remember that for a long time.

[kylebike128]

[thegeekgroup]
