This little robot has the horizontal bar down pat but, much like his human counterparts, he has a little trouble with the dismount. I actually felt a bit guilty for laughing at the end.
 
i still think thats awesome. its just a slight glimpse into the future where robots can do anything a human can but way better.... physically anyway.. mentally, yeah were still in the embryo stage.
 
That was great.

I actually would have been a bit worried if the little guy had STUCK the landing!:cool:
 
yeah, I didn't expect it and I think that's why it was so funny. All of a sudden.. bam!
 
Falling out of the camera shot is comedy gold. If only it was followed by the screech of a cat.
 
Somebody get a pillow for that robot's butt because it's gotta be hurting right now. :p :D
 
Wow, I can't belive everybody is masturbating over that thing, what ... the ever existing pendulum is a new concept. Now if the dam thing woulda thrown down a ten point O landing then I'd be impressed.

What is this "were still in the embryo stage"? Are you a robot? ;)

Just the fact thats it is up on the bar is impressive, iRobot days are coming and I hope we are ready.

I could use a robot to to the things around the house I don't want to do " Hey Robbie, can you do the dishes and the wife!" LOL

i know! it sucks that we know now that all that stuff is physically possible... so were just stuck in the dark ages of having to do everything ourselves (kinda). i mean, someday your kid wont even need a brother to throw the football around... he can have a robot play just as good as him or as good as a pro athlete. how frickin cool would that be?
 
I think iRobot and all the clone movies on the same concept are around to prevent us from getting to that point.. until someone plows past that barrier and dooms us all.
