Big Dog Beta...

05/04/2013 3:57 PM

Hey guys. I'm sure many of you have heard of Boston Dynamics and Big Dog. Watch the original Big Dog video first (even if you've seen it already...just a refresher) and then watch this Big Dog Beta video.

Cheers.

"You mean the two guys, spotted it right off"

Congrats but I didn't post it to fool you. I thought you'd get a laugh. I thought it was hilarious especially when they did the dance and when they get kicked into the fence in slo-mo. How do you not find that funny??

It's a spoof on the original vi...ah nevermind...

I can't shake the illusion that it's two guys facing each other with their heads stuffed in some huge knapsack.

I think it would be really cool if they made one that looked like a horse that you could ride.

"Beta" is funny, but if I saw the real 'big dog' coming at me my first reaction would be to reach for a can of bug spray. A real BIG can.
