    Man shoots self with robot

    http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,339213,00.html

    An 81-year-old Australian man has shot himself dead with an elaborate suicide robot built using plans he downloaded from the Internet.

    The Gold Coast man, who lived alone, left notes of his plans and thoughts as he struggled to come to terms with demands by interstate relatives that he move out his home and into care.

    He spent hours searching the Internet for a way to kill himself, downloaded what he needed and then built a complex machine that would remotely fire a gun.

    He set the device up in his driveway about 7 a.m. Wednesday, placed himself in front of it and set it in motion.

    His notes explained that he chose the driveway as he knew there were tradesmen working next door who would find his body. The plan worked as the workmen heard the gunshots and ran to investigate.

    The machine was attached to a .22 semi-automatic pistol loaded with four bullets.

    It was able to fire multiple shots into the man's head after he activated it.

    That's pretty fucking impressive even though it's pretty sad. Hope his family is happy now.

    Too bad there weren't any spies around to sap the sentry before it killed him.

    After the shooting, witnesses reported hearing the robot ask "Are you still there?"

    Did he at least dress it in a leather jacket and sunglasses?

    Personally, I'd be a little freaked out if I ran to investigate. I wouldn't want the robot to turn on me, too.

    Re: Man shoots self with robot

    I'm at work so I can't find it...but does anyone have the YouTUBE link to Peter's breakfast machine from family guy? You know...the long drawn out segment that ends with Peter shot in the shoulder?

    "This is worse than that breakfast machine I built"
    **drawn out machine stuff**
    *BANG*
    "OH GOD, THIS DOESN'T MAKE BREAKFAST AT ALL...IT JUST SHOOTS YOU!!!"

    Anyone ? >_>
