wow very cool...

a bit off topic; does that means we can do a front flip / somersault without any upper body strength / movement?

Those videos are old! I wonder what ever happened to those bots . . . or why no one makes robots like these . . .

In the second robot leg preview (the one that starts going really fast) that looks scary if it flew off the railing. If it was 100% safe take it up to 100 MPH.

@admin: Yea, those do seem to work very well and should still be made. Once I get more exp with robots I will try to make one.
