It's easy to forget how powerful the Chaos machine was. I think they overclocked their motors. Something the Tornado team would later do to even greater effect.
Go George Francis! He really is my Robot Wars hero. Wheelasaurus only lasted as long as it did in the trial because Dead Metal swerved off the straight line and caught itself against the wall, forcing it to stop and realign before dragging Wheelasaurus down with ease. Otherwise it wouldn't have beaten Tantrum. The idea that any competitor robot could outpull a House Robot really shows that the House Robots weren't up to snuff at all until the 3rd Wars (well, except Killalot). Although looking at it again, I think Chaos may have jumped the start by about half a second (although that could just be minute audio-visual lage), and once it was over the edge onto the downward slope of the ramp it had a massive pulling advantage over Dead Metal.
Tantrum were brilliant in the gauntlet, shame they couldn't hold on to a couple of seconds longer in the tug-o-war trial. Silly Death Trak going backwards! How awesome was it when Chaos dragged Dead Metal in the pit, that's when George Francis became a hero of Robot Wars.
3:33 I would've laughed so hard if Craig fell in...

I'm glad somebody dragged Dead Metal into the pit and who else but the Chaos team? I love them!
I LOVE ROBOT WARS
Chaos was the first robot to pit a house robot :)

IMO the house bots are far too aggressive. I get that they are not merciful but they left their areas in the gauntlet and ganged up on the bots.
I really hope there is a Chaos II
First time i have seen a man that tall with a man that short XD and george's voice O_O so high, along with his skill
Tantrum reminds me of Frostbite from Battlebots. SO MANY NAMES!
@ 8:11 watching not only dead metal in the pit but also Tantrum is about to be out of the competition.
Gotta like George Francis, seems like a great person
heheh great driver Peter Gibson XD hah almost as good as Rex Garrod
@bloodstar165 In fact no, sorry, it's still the same guy I believe, but the kid wasn't old enough to join in then.
@bloodstar165 They hadn't met each-other until after Series 2, don't worry.
I hope theres an outtake of 3:33 of Craig falling the the pit :P
I believe they cut out a bit of their tussle to make sure it hit their 30 minute time scale. normal time was 30 seconds I believe for tug of war
Believe me Pantomime is no place for the weak.
8:15 all of these screen together arn't 1080.
7:34 I can almost swear Chaos activated before "Activate" was called...
Could have just been a weird editing cut, but they weren’t playing for sheep stations.
thats my mates dad and uncle!!!!
@justandy333 well actualy they had a reason to stop the contest since laviathan had outlasted deadmetal longer since it was tug o war
@ 4:29 tantrum's entry for a future wars
it was probably to stop the motors burning out :(
@ 4:25 there goes tantrum's trolley
yay Chaos did it he threw dead metal into the pit my favourite part.
whatever happened to George Francis's partner there, when Chaos 2 came out George's partners were the guy and the kid, anyone know what happened?
@justandy333, you can see it when Chaos knocks out Deadmetal XD
@ 4:24 the trolley has broken
Wonder what happened to George Francis’s mate
He switched to the Cassius team in Series 3.
I wanted Craig Charles to fall in the pit of oblivian
He probably did during filming lol
I didn´t know warwick davis built robot the bruce
find the match of Razer vs onslaught, matilda gets complete destroyed, set on fire and ganged up on by razer and other house robots
I really didn't like the tug of war challenge... it really is unfair to those robots that don't rely on brute power.
@bloodstar165 He joined Rex Garrod's team in Series 3. Biggest mistake he ever made.
Nooo! Bias judges! Leighviathan obviously had the upper hand on deadmetal and the they stopped the contest. I wanna see ruined house robots! lol
@justandy333 XD hah ruined house bot XD hah thank chaos1 for that XD after pullin deadmetal into thep it XD
