Look no further...

I find that video to be very disturbing for some reason. I just had an erie feeling watching it.

That's freakin amazing. Stick a chair on it and a decent battery pack so you don't have the noisy motor and you will have a pretty cool ride.
The gopher of the 21st century!

Yeah, that thing is weird. The way it moves is so real that I start feeling bad when it falls down and mad at that guy for trying to kick it over... and then I feel weird for feeling bad/mad... and then I feel scared that I'm actually watching the first in the T series of of man-hating machines...

I say kill it now, before Sarah Conner turns from a Hot looking blond into a brunette MILF.

That was my feeling exactly, I just can't explain why I would feel that way. It was the kicking and the slipping on ice that was bugging me out. The jump is pretty cool. The problem it seems to have is with inclines and declines.
