A scene out of the movie Terminator just happened for real. A robot killed a contractor at one of Volkswagen's production plants in Germany, the automaker said.

The man died on Monday at the plant in Baunatal, about 100 kilometers (62 miles) north of Frankfurt, VW spokesperson Heiko Hillwig said.

The 22-year-old was part of a team that was setting up the stationary robot when it grabbed and crushed him against a metal plate, Hillwig said.

He said initial conclusions indicate that human error was to blame, rather than a problem with the robot, which can be programmed to perform various tasks in the assembly process. He said it normally operates within a confined area at the plant, grabbing auto parts and manipulating them.

When the Robot asks for Valvoline, you feed him the generic stuff at your own peril.

@sarahoconnor_ Guys. I don't know what skynet is. And I wouldn't follow me - I tweet really boring stuff about unit wage costs and the like.


@karelj
@sarahoconnor_ Sooo...you're saying I *shouldn't* go with you if I want to live?
