I searched and didn't find this already posted. It's a video of a robot created by Boston Dynamics. It's really creepy when they try to push the thing over and when it's on ice. One could have nightmares of this thing coming after you.

Fascinating--especially the slo-mo where it starts to slip on the ice but then props itself up on its elbow and regains its footing. Whoever designed this has an impressive understanding of human and animal anatomy.
I'd love to see how an animal reacts to this bot.
