Breathless, speechless, almost typeless

WHOA! If you bothered to watch that video of the little black toy robot I posted earlier, you’d know that it could, what…get up from being flat on its face? balance on leg to kick its other leg out?! oooOOOOOoooo!! I’m scared. See my knees shaking? No, because they’re not. Dude, this robot developed by Boston Dynamics is so much more awesomer!! I held my breath almost the whole time I watched this video — which got kind of life-threatening but so worth it. You have got to see it to believe it. But be PATIENT: the first few seconds are kind of boring, then it gets really amazing. Have fun!

    Wow! That thing sounds really annoying! Hope they coat in sound-proofing before they send it out into the great unknown.

    I have to admit that I watched this freaky spider-like robot amazed (not breathless, but just amazed), then I watched the little LED show and expected something to start tapdancing or something. So, sorry I missed the whole dimmer and brighter the first time and thought you videoed a screw being turned. Needless to say, I wasn’t breathless on this one either, but your accomplishment is impressive. You are actually on your way in robotics!!!
