Sarah Connor is doomed.

My cat does that on a regular basis.

Does this mean I will have my own Bishop who can do the thing with the knife soon?

I for one welcome our new robotic overlords.

^damnit, you beat me to it by 15 minutes!

Such rapid, dexterous hand movement... It's going to get used for Porn.

...Everything always gets used for porn...

^ I think that would hurt too much.

First I watch a video that claims that human population will begin to decrease in thirty years, then I see the prototype for the cause of that decrease.

Sarah Conner is doomed indeed!

"Warning: Using the WankBot 2000 without the recommended amount of industrial lubricant may cause a slight burning sensation at your genitalia."

Impressive to say the least. Lets see your bible do that.

Imagine them teaching it to play piano.

M'eh - notice how the robot can't compensate for the fact that the ball went about 3 inches out of range on one bounce? I'm not so impressed that a machine can bat around a ball very quickly in an 8-inch square, confined, controlled area in a lab. I'll be impressed when a robot can do that on a basketball court with 6 sweaty guys tossing that ball around all over the place at random intervals...

"Yes...yes...soon the International Pen Twirling Championship will be OURS!"

At 1:44 I can just hear the robotic voice: "Now pick it up, hu-man."

Extremely impractical, but hey, just imagine what those evil mud-hut-living bastards who have apparently been declared our enemies would think to be seeing giant robots playing high-speed volleyball in their back yards!

When can I lop off my crappy, clumsy, meat-hands and attach those fully articulated bad-boys to my bloody stumps?

Soon?

The dribbling was pretty impressive but the catching? Not exactly super-human, I opened the fridge just this morning and a bottle fell from a lower shelf which I just saw out of the corner of my eye but I grabbed it before it could fall with no problems (and this is something any developed Humans with some degree of physical ability can do). That's trickier than grabbing a foam block that's thrown in the air if you ask me.

They TUK. ER. JERBZ!

Someone should really tag this for fear!

Sarah Connor Chronicles finale: beaten to death with small yellow ball.

Watching that dribbling one gave me huge lulz. I'm still chuckling.

I love how the first dribbler gets hit in the chin, waggles his hand around a bit like a T Rex with stubby arms, and then just puts them up in exasperation saying "Noooooooo!"

I need your clothes, your boots and your basketball

It's just math. Some twos added to some ones and you can build this yourself out of doorhandles and fishing line.

^let us know how that turns out for you

2:13-2:37 = the best.

Let's see it, McGuyver!

I forsee a whole line of adult toys developed from this...

it's bad enough that the machines will take over but they'll know kung-fu as well... i quit.

Would make for a wicked bongo player.
