Insanely Dangerous was a middleweight robot designed by Peter Glasnowsky which attended Season 5.0 of Comedy Central BattleBots.

It was a circular, four-wheel drive robot armed with two large industrial metal-cutting saw blades powered by Aveox motors.[1] These blades, dubbed "Wheels of Death", were 12" in diameter and included 24 replaceable carbide cutting teeth. Each blade could spin up to 2500rpm, according to the team. Insanely Dangerous was mostly constructed from 7075-T651 aluminum and S7 tool steel, with the possibility for additional armor if the team wished to instead enter the heavyweight division.

Insanely Dangerous was also designed to be invertible, thanks to its large wheels protruding from the top and bottom of its chassis. The robot was billed to cost a minimum of $8500.

Unfortunately, despite these fearsome weapons, it was unable to pass safety inspection and was forced to forfeit its only match. It is unknown if it attempted to enter any other competitions.
