After a month of hard work, the Rhett & Link machine is finally here! This machine is undoubtedly my most complicated and compact one yet, so I would say this one is my best as well!

Update: As of 7/7/16, Rhett & Link (or at least their social media crew) have seen my video and shared it! So thank you to everyone who tweeted it to them, or shared it with them on Facebook! I probably couldn't have done this without you! Below are the links to their posts:

This machine is definitely the most complicated thing I've ever made. Looking back, there is a significant difference between the complexity of even the last machine I made, the Super Bowl 50 Machine, and this one. Before decorating, there was still a relatively large amount of empty space in the SB50 Machine. But for this machine, there was barely any. I was stunned when I discovered just how much more complicated this machine is than the last. In fact, this machine lasts a full 20 seconds longer than the SB50 Machine!
I also realized I did something a bit different in this machine. Usually, there are 3 main ideas in my machines. But for this one, there are really 3 main ideas, then an entire quadrant of the table filled with many smaller ideas. This was something I've never really done before, but I love how it turned out, and I think I may actually start trying to do that more in future machines.
The reason this machine took so long to build was because I hit a MAJOR mental roadblock about halfway through. I couldn't think of a single idea to build for about a week and a half, before I finally decided to just improvise and see what happened, rather than wait around for an idea to come to mind. What resulted was that section of smaller ideas that I mentioned earlier, which I actually really like.

![The Anti-Bullying Machine
Behold, the second Rube Goldberg machine of RGMay! For this one, I made an anti-bullying themed machine. This machine failed a total of 81 times, which is much more than average, and much more than I thought it would take! I am extremely satisfied with the outcome of the two-way track pulley system, and I think it looks really awesome! For this machine, there was not a single spot where most of the fails happened. The fails occurred pretty evenly throughout it. Decorating the machine was a lot harder than it typically is, but I was able to print out a few pictures with anti-bullying slogans and spread them in places throughout the machine.
Because anti-bullying is such a serious topic, I knew that I had to do more than just make a machine. So I included in this video what I think of bullying, and, more specifically, the methods we are taught to deal with it. Let me know in the comments what you think of my points, because Im curious to see if you guys agree with me.
