Soon they will learn how to place pro too....

That is one of the coolest things I've ever seen. Kinda creepy though.

The Company is going to want that for their bio-weapons division. I want to renogtiate my share!

Well using it as a rope gun might take the fun out of the climbing, but...
What about fitting the thing with a crow bar and send it up to do dangerous yet ness' trundles for the safety of a route.

Hey that's it, I got it...
We all pitch in and buy one for Greg Barnes and the ASCA. We fit the biatch with a 'defunker' and a percussion drill implement, then cut it loose on bunk bolt replacement.

This thing is creepy

I have this vision of it showing up at my door about unpaid BLM parking violations......

Just kidding Jed!

Seriously though, it's creepy

i think it's cheating!

That big dog is going to give me night mares. Its the backwards front joints I think... that and no head. It needs a happy dog head.

What good is a climber who can't jam the cracks? Looks like it's back to the drawing board;p

When the video first started, I took one look and did immediately have that instinctive viceral reaction to either run from that or kill it.

Man, if I'd had a phased plasma pulse rifle in the 40 watt range, I'd have wasted that thing.

I could watch it all day; I love mechanical robots; It makes me want to go out today, and get a kit to build one. It would probably take me forever, but who cares, it would be so fun. Thanks for sharing!

The stability of that Bigdog is crazy.

Combine that with this and I'll be very scared.

It makes me want to get my shoes re-soled with whatever the hell that thing is using.

OMG...the tears started streaming when they got on the swing.

That is soooo funny, because that is exactly what I thought the real Big Dog reminded me of when I was watching it.

Bwahahahahaaha!! That is friggin' hilarious!

Big Dog 2.0 will get it's own show on the strip! Much more entertaining than The Blue Man Group.

Believe it or not; the Mobile Crisis Intervention Team, and CIT officers have been known to respond to calls on tourists going loco after seeing The Blue Man Group.
Bad juju, man!

I wonder how Big Dog 2.0 will affect people. I think the locals in Vegas will be okay.
They seem to have a higher tolerance for weird shit. ; )



Okay, okay....enough already, you're starting to creep me out.
Get your frickin PVC pipes away from me!
Whew, flashbacks is all...

yeah, but can it downclimb? ;-)
