Scientists

I know scientists mean well, but when are they ever going to learn? I think all robots should have a weakness built into their architecture, preferably that if you turn them upside-down, they are rendered immobile.

A nimble, four-legged robot is so surefooted it can recover its balance even after being given a hefty kick. The machine, which moves like a cross between a goat and a pantomime horse, is being developed as a robotic pack mule for the US military.


Check out when this scientist dude kicks the robot, and then check it out again in slow-motion.
