BigDog.Looks like he might need some crampons.
I don't know about you, but big dog creeps me out.. I feel like he could stomp you to death on the mountain.
Am I the only person who laughed out loud for that video?! Holy shit that thing is funny looking/sounding.
Yes, that thing looks ridiculous in action.
I didn't have sound on the computer I'm at, but I am thinking that I can now pack a dutch oven and 320 lbs of bacon into the bc.
Animals were harmed in the making of this film.
It is funny that they came up with a robot that moves just like a dog/horse. Next they should film it chasing a chew toy, around a corner, on a hard wood floor.
And DARPA will be the end of us all. :wink:
Just go Inuit style and get a 200lb Malmute

I'm thinking maybe you only have to feed Big Dog while he is working for you. I need the version that can find its way back to a GPS meeting point. I don't want to ski with that mutha behind me!Quote:
