Be afraid by everything DARPA makes....and this one is scary too! I can just imagine a battlefield of these things running through enemy combatants....

I wonder what the MTBF is on those legs and their actuators. I also would like to see it attempting to run in muddy conditions.

I wonder how long till Cyberdyne gets a hold of this and launches Skynet?

When I see one running without an arm attached to it I will be impressed. Meh.
