Six seconds may not seem like much, but when it comes to scientific experimentation every second you can squeeze out is infinitely valuable!

I have a whole new respect for GlaDOS. She waited 19 whole levels before pushing me into the fire. I guess we made quite the team!

It costs millions of dollars and years of research to build a pair of robots that will trust each other... for six seconds. </lame heavy weapons guy joke>

And so we put these robots through a series of rigorous exercises to build a sincere bond of trust!

*one robot pushes the other into a fire*

Those aren't the trustworthy robots. They're the bitter ones. We sell those too.

There is an underlying theme to this video.
Nothing can be trusted.

Oh wait, you were expecting a joke.

Do be fair it seemed like the orange-eyed robot had the worse end of all the trust tasks. Being flung across the room, almost taking a laser to the face--I don't blame him for pushing the other robot into the firepit.

Maybe I'd trust robots if I would've gotten cake and be still alve.

Recently, I have been questioning my investment choice of Aperture Science. Now that I see what they put my money toward, I am quite pleased with their results. Those were the best 6 seconds of my life.

So, somehow all my comments in this submission are disappearing.

I guess even IntenseDebate hates them.

That is not trust. That is backstabbing. We sell that, too.

I liked Aperture Science better when their public personality came from a soul-less rogue AI program.

What? I threw my best friends into fire pits all the time, and they didn't get mad. Granted, they couldn't really get mad with the whole flesh burning thing.
How am I not trustable?

That's betrayal, NOT The Power of Friendship. We sell that too.

the voice is from Ted Williams isn´t it : D

*edit*
I´m wrong as I just found that the voice is from J. K. Simmons : D
And in the process I found out he is doing the voice of Aang and katara son Tenzin
And after that I found out there is going to be a new series of avatar : D

Funny, reminds me of Magicka co-op play... no, humans can´t be trusted. Especially if your things are shinier than theirs.
