Revellers at a South African outdoor rock festival no longer need to queue to slake their thirst — a flying robot will drop them beer by parachute.
After clients place an order using a smartphone app, a drone zooms 15 metres (50 feet) above the heads of the festival-goers to make the delivery.
In a rare display of bipartisanship, tweeters of all stripes found themselves uniting behind a common cause to #StandWithRand:
@SenRandPaul you don't have my support on many issues but drones should only be dropping beer. I'm with you on that
