One would think MIT students would be able to construct a modern, nuclear-powered trebuchet and launch the piano into orbit.

Somebody's gonna have to cough up the big bucks once the Harvard Law guys realize that there are no "caution: piano falling zone" signs on the sidewalk.

This stunt would have been more fun if Barry Manilow was playing the piano at the time.

Le Pet, you'd think it would be a nuclear-powered piano that would be self-launching. While playing "Mandy".
