  • Can I get two please,

    

  • OK It is awesome.

  • We have horses.Just more money wasted.

  • @davidshortt88 no horses have a habit of needing a lot of stuff. For example: they need to be in an environment that is above 0 degrees Celsius, they need food, and water, and they need guiding by a human. This is specialized, and completely autonomous, meaning it needs no human to ride it.

  • I'm Too Drunk,.. Would you Carry me??..

  • big dog dance at 1:38

  • Lol at how the soldiers probably had to ignore the constant "BRAAHHBRAAAAHBRAAAHBRAAH" and pretend it was a useful combat vehicle. Still pretty cool.

  • Can you ride it? That would make it useful.

  • Kojima would be proud

  • not sure if anyone should get that as i think people would love to kick the shit out of it to watch it freak the fuck out

  • @MrTThorne93 What if it don't freak out but instead of being programmed with Asimov's 3 laws of robotics, it is programmed for war and you don't have the friendly force signal transmitter on you. Then you die :-(

  • @Altinget My god how great invention . I can't wait to see them used as border gaurds

  • At some moments I feel like they have definitely reached Uncanny Valley with it.

    For example at 0:50 or at 1:01 or at 1:04 it makes me feel a little uncomfortable.

  • Can it swim? Does it even float?

  • the way this shit, moves and operates, shows us , that we are veeeeeeery far from movies presentation of robots.....

  • @manolios I bet they have stuff they arent showing us, shit the A bomb was made in the 40's and the stealth in the 70's its all old

  • @BrandonHeilBHB Yes one could easily get the idea that what they show are early abandoned prototypes and the present stage of development is the fully functional final product of a completely different design. (maybe a whole army of robo-war-machines are already ready for combat at some secret place)

  • Who sings that song. Paul Miles? I think that is him.

  • 1:15 what are those planes please ? Why motors are like that ?

  • it a SKYNET!!

  • tina turner legs mmmmm

  • You know damn well this is a weapon waiting to happen.

  • resistance is futile!

  • so i guess in 20 years dogs will no longer be needed?

  • showed my gf this... she asked "when the soldiers get lonely do they fuck it?" lol

  • what is the name of this song

  • fuckin weapons

    

  • its fucking loud though.

  • @Kingphilco and gun fire isn't?

  • @cabot2jville2010 If they stop and have a fire fight it's not going to be moving, if they're moving along people will hear them from a mile away.

  • @Kingphilco the point of it is to move supplies in dangerous zones, it wouldn't be walking beside moving soldiers, we have trucks and soldiers to carry stuff, but when people are bogged down and need supplies, they send it out and it gets sent to them. you really think war has only the two scenarios u just mentioned?

  • damn science! you scary!

  • Needs more sturdy legs. Looks like it was made from spare parts.

  • Somehow I think PETA will send them a letter telling them to stop pushing it that way.

  • needs some more cosmetics for badassery effectiveness

  • frightningley magnificent!

  • If this is what they're showing us what the hell aren't they ?!

  • @Figolett My guess is: something about the same size but with 8 legs and looking like a scorpion with heavy cutting tools on the pincers and a machine gun on the elevated tail. It will of course be bullet proof and impossible to kick over and fast as a real dog.

  • Muito sinistro, esse equipamento!!!!! kkkkk

  • so millions of your american dollars have been spent on a robot dog that carries your equipment?

    what a waste of money!

    soldiers are supposed to be trained to carry heavy weights over long distances and i seen other vids of this and the fucking robot is noisy as hell!

    solution? get a fucking donkey instead of spending 100's of millions on junk lol

  • @louiscarr899 Put on full gear that includes helmet, vest carrier with hard and soft plates. Add pouches for your Magazines, IFAK, and Sidearm. Add 100lbs of other shit to your back walking miles in 100+ degree heat in the middle of the fucking desert you retard. This is built to take the burden off the soldiers backs and get them off the roads keeping them from IED's and ambushes. It's noisy because its not finished you stupid fuck which it will be quiet in 18 months with the LS3.

  • @louiscarr899 Donkeys get shot and killed. Donkeys need food and water. Donkeys will freak out and run off if they are spooked. Do you want to risk getting shot while chasing them during a firefight?

    Donkeys need to remain healthy and require constant care. That means you need to buy medicine and hire a vet of some sort.

    If a Donkey breaks a leg then you have to kill it and if there is a place they don't want to go, then they wont go This will be armored to stand 7.62 AP Rounds.

  • @louiscarr899 I agree, it's a fucking embarrassment. lol

  • they built this robot to be kicked around?

  • DAMN NATURE U SCARY

  • THIS IS THE NEW WORLD ORDER MACHINE THAT IS GOING TO ENSLAVE AND KILL US

  • dont in make sound?!?!

    you can be busted in war!!!

    and DIE!!!

    but normaly not

  • look at the music name

  • no doubt it'll soon be equipped with personnel seeking weapons and will be hunting down "insurgents" and "terrorists" autonomously. and some americans will put the blame on science and engineers. is there any doubt who is "big brother" or who is running "skynet"?

  • So... Is this machine actually being used by the military?

  • Romantic stroll on the beach?

  • I have this vision of puting a neck on a head and antlers..not BIGDOG but..BIGDEER...

  • This song is : Let The Big Dog Eat by Sauce Boss

  • Haha, tax dollars to fund stupid shit like this instead of helping people. *shakes head and laughs*

  • @HilariousHyena Why the fuck do you think they're building it you ignorant fuck, go buy a gun and do something about it.

  • @c1h2a3d4b5e6e7m8a9n Why? Because the military industrial complex demands funds, it demands blood, it demands YOUR money, so it can make stupid things like this, lol. Waste, waste, stupid waste, and anyone who thinks otherwise is a tool of the MIC.

  • @HilariousHyena I don't think you understand how technology is applied, and I don't live in america, where half of their tax revenue goes to their military *shakes head and laughs*. I'm not disagreeing with you about the USA's fascination with military power, but you also have to realize how self absorbed they are as a nation. I'm just saying that most of the technology we use today derived from military need, later to be adapted for citizen use.

  • @c1h2a3d4b5e6e7m8a9n Plenty of stuff derived from the military, even the internet. But who knows what would have developed if all that money wasn't poured into the military industrial complex and instead diverted to fund science or applications for the common good of society. And as an American, I am ashamed of my country. *looks around for Homeland Security agents* Uh, I mean America is great and stuff.

  • @HilariousHyena Most of the money that gets funneled to the Military does go into science and technology. Look up regenerative medicine that helped a Marine regrow his thigh muscle after a few months. Google the company Arteriocyte that are working on creating artificial universal blood that could save countless lives in the long run and drastically lower risk of disease transfer. Check out SyNAPSE. Hell after a while this will help with S&R for hikers, skiers, etc.

  • @CuervoBlack06 Most of the money my fucking ass. Go look up the cost of the F35 jets. Then cry when you realize where American money is going.

  • @HilariousHyena And what are you going to do about the cost overruns of the F35 jets? Nothing that's what.

  • @CuervoBlack06 Voting democrat, butthole. That's all we can do at this point. America has gone to shit since Reagan and his industrial war spending. *throws shit at the right wing* - But back to the point, look at this ridiculous video, look at that. Tax money for that. Just look at it. lol

  • @HilariousHyena Like you voting is going to do a damn thing you dipshit. Both parties are out for themselves and it's dumbasses like you that vote them in.

  • @CuervoBlack06 And Republican assholes rely on people like you not voting. And that's why we have dumb shit like this robot dog disaster, lol.

  • @HilariousHyena And what the fuck would have either of them done since for the last decade nothing. Your limp wristed dems aren't gonna do a damn thing either so fuck off and whine about the taxes somewhere else.

  • @CuervoBlack06 Stupid backwoods retards like you always vote against their own economic interests. America is so fucked. Now go back to your droopy boobed mom and smoke some of that meth you love so much. Backwoods retards.

  • @HilariousHyena Lmao you Dems are always so butt hurt when you have lost your argument. They can't even agree to pass a budget in the Senate that they control and your crying like a faggot over money spent on the military? Just proves Obama and Dems are as bunch of bullshitters and fuck ups as the southern fried retard before him and his Repukes.

  • @HilariousHyena All funded by DARPA and the US Military! What I just named is only the tip of the iceberg on what they fund. Do you even bother to do any research on what they fund or are you like the many on here that bitch for the sake bitching? Tell me something what the fuck do you do that can better mankind instead of just whining on here. The Military may be fucked up at times but at least they contribute good with the bad. If this country ashames you, then leave!

  • @CuervoBlack06 Fuck off, bitch. Assholes like you who love the military industrial complex need to leave, along with your racist droopy boobed mom.

  • @HilariousHyena Faggots like you sit around saying the same old shit sucking on Alex Jones and David Icks cock saying the same old thing about the military industrail complex crap and you don't do jack shit about it. All talk and no balls with you losers. You piss and moan yet you're on here, the product of military funding, whining like the little bitch that you are!

  • Когда он 15 секундах встаёт, как-то не по себе даже...

  • I love how realistic the movements are.

  • Somebody needs to report this to P.E.T.R (People for the Ethical Treatment of Robots)

  • these would make great things to explore planets in

  • I bet they'll be pets in a few years

  • looks like something out of metal gear solid 4 lol

  • Onward to Armored Core, 1 creepy step at a time :D

  • But, is it bulletproof?

  • Почему никто не додумался сесть на него?

  • wait till they mount a gun on that thing, then no one would want to kick it

  • I fear we will see Cylons soon.... damn first military robot that actually looks successful

  • 1:22 Wow, they put camo on it. "Where is it? I can't see a four legged robot walking in the woods. I can barely distinguish it from the surroundings."

  • Walkin ammo dispenser...

  • How awesome it would be to ride on a faster version of this;)

    Cybernetic cavalry FTW :)

  • 3 words, Metal Gear Solid...

  • Big Dog + Powered Omni-wheels on its feet = Tachikomas from Ghost in the Shell

    It can use the omni-wheels to reach great speeds on smooth surfaces like roads and it can use its legs to move around rough, irregular terrain.

  • isnt nature enough.. fuck yall

  • WHY THE FUCK?

  • I find this adorable. I'll surely be the first to die trying to hug the evil robot overlords.

  • fuck science you scarey...

  • @rblwoaclu2 ... road kill.

    take care

  • @rblwoaclu2 I totally agree this shit is scary, it is like a body moving without the head. But could you imagine the reaction of a terrorist seeing this shit running towards them lol I would fucking piss my pants if I saw this creepy thing and not knowing what it was lol especially at night oh my fucking god or half awake

  • BigDog has his own theme song!

  • That thing will remember the shit you pulled on him... it'll be pissed when it finally does the apocalypse.

  • Automated government, torture by robotics on conveyers and NextGen devises to diminish influence are the three areas my husband was investigating. He is dead. If you pursue these interests, please be very careful.

  • They should turn it into an AT-AT w/ .22 machine guns

  • is funny but bisarre D:

  • i'm pretty sure i'm laughing cuz it's sooo creepy o_O;

  • FCUK!! that's scary!

  • WOW. I want one.

  • Somehow this is hilarious !!!! I feel so bad when they push it thou!!!

  • @steph15hudgins that's bad, no feelings for steel mate...

  • @steph15hudgins lmfao, thats because the thing gets all gimpy and shit.. reminds me of a retarded deer or something

  • EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

  • I CANT STOP LAUGHING BECAUSE OF THE WAY THOSE LEGS MOVE WHEN THEY LOSE BALANCE HAHA

  • creepyyyy

  • HALF LIFE?

  • watch bout a week after the first completely self aware and self contoling robots first appears its gonna think hmmm i wonder what i was like before this point in my life.its gonna jump on the internet to find out and find this.....2 days later the robots starts the Matrix as revenge.

  • To think that in a few year the Marines are getting BigDog's older sister :D

  • They should just strap a gun to the front of this thing and call it a Murderbot already.

  • UNCANNY VALLEY.

  • What name of this song who knew ?

  • Scary ass thing,

  • song ?

  • This song is ridiculous...just saying. 

  • So is it just a pack mule right now?

  • Comment removed

  • Isn't it cheaper to use a donkey?

  • @ahousekeeper Donkeys, Horses, and Camels are expensive as well.

  • @ahousekeeper In the beginning maybe. Long term: no

  • @wan2shuffle I would love to see some numbers that prove the thesis... As for the terms: donkeys have been around for millenia.

  • @ahousekeeper Being around for millenia doesn't mean anything. a donkey can and will run away. A donkey can die of disease. A donkey needs a constant supply of food and water. A donkey is stubborn. A donkey will have to be put down if shot. I could go on...

  • @wan2shuffle Robot can break down. It needs constant supply of fuel, lubricants, spare parts, mechanics to take care of it. A robot can be "fatally" shot too. I could go on too.

  • @ahousekeeper The Difference is you can train a soldier to repair this with the right tools and parts while bringing enough fuel to keep it going. It wouldn't be any different from repairing Humvees and Tanks. You can't repair a broken leg of a donkey, camel, or horse out in the middle of nowhere. You ultimately have to shoot them as wan2shuffle said and lug the extra equipment. Plus you can't mount a M249 SAW on a donkey and have it act as automatic fire support, now can you?

  • @CuervoBlack06 I have a feeling you've never lived in a rural area, my friend. And that's the reason you are really sure that you can repair a Humvee "in the middle of nowhere", but you can't "repair a donkey in the middle of nowhere" :))

  • @ahousekeeper Oh but I have. I have lived out in the country for 20 plus years and helped raise Horses and Pack Mules so I know what I'm talking about, but answer me this. If you're 30 miles out in the desert and soldiers are carrying 100lbs of gear, and the donkey is carrying 300lbs. It looses it footing and tumbles down a hill and breaks its leg. There's no Vets and you can't drag it with you. Can you replace the leg like you can with this or like you would a Humvee tire?

  • @CuervoBlack06 You just shoot the donkey and share 300lbs among the others. However, with the Humvee it may not be just a tire, but something more serious. You can't carry a full package of spare parts and tools for a robot. Also, I am not really sure that fixing a robot is as easy as replacing a "tire", and who is going to carry all that spare parts? Also in most cases you don't need to carry "fuel" for a donkey or a horse with you.

  • @ahousekeeper Unless you have designed BigDog or have worked at Boston Dynamics, then you cant really say what parts the soldiers will have on them or if it will be hard to fix. Soldiers already carry about 100lbs of gear on their backs and that's not counting the weight from the vest/rig. Adding extra weight will only fatigue them completely before they reach their destination. Out in the desert with hardly any vegetation and very little water, yes you do.

  • @CuervoBlack06 «Unless you have designed BigDog»... Well, the same apply to you, right?

  • @ahousekeeper Yes the same would apply to me, but it would just be common sense to know that they would teach a few soldiers the in's and out's of this thing and how to troubleshoot a problem with the right tools with them since they will be walking/running along side it.

  • @CuervoBlack06 You assume that any problem with a complex mechanical equipment can be solved with minimum training/set of tools, which is not always the case.

  • @ahousekeeper What makes you think it would be minimal?

  • @ahousekeeper Say that you're ambushed, a firefight breaks out and the animal suddenly freaks out and takes off with your equipment, rations, etc. Are you going to volunteer to chase after it while getting shot at? Animals can be stubborn and will resist and buck all over the place they don't want to go somewhere. This won't!

  • @CuervoBlack06 In a firefight situation a robot would be hit in a matter of second. To be honest I am starting to wonder why would you refuse to acknowledge ANY disadvantages of the robot :)

  • @ahousekeeper With anything they teach you in the military they have to train you extensively on it. Whether it be working on tanks, planes, trucks or generators. No such thing as minimal training. The robot can be armored. They already have different plates that can withstand a .308 and this thing can run, jump, get back and follow you to cover. You haven't given me any disadvantages that can't be fixed easily with this than with a live animal.

  • @CuervoBlack06 I've listed plenty of disadvantages, you just don't want to notice them :) Sorry, I'm out of this useless talk.

  • @ahousekeeper Which I have already given you adequate solutions to, it's not my fault you can't get it in your thick skull.

  • DARPA is also that Lost enterprise isnt it? finantiated by god... ._. what the fuck was that Lost ending anyway

  • The best anti-personnel mine cleaner lol

  • Tout simplement ridicule... Après la robotisation industrielle voici venue la robotisation militaire... Sérieux...

  • So groovy

  • pussy kick at 1:12

  • They're so abusive to that poor robot D:

  • @ChrisXPZ I dont know why but I actully feel bad for the thing.

  • @ChrisXPZ

    Yes....this is how it begins.....

  • It would be hilarious if this was fake. I know it's not, but how easy would it be for some guys to put on greenscreen leggings and hold hands inside a cardboard box and run around facing each other? Someone needs to do that 

  • Yeah, okay, I admit - any videos with BigDog in them manage to make me laugh with all the abuse it seems to face constantly.

  • I think if I ever saw this fucking thing coming at me through the forest, I'd empty an entire mag into it, scream, and run away. This thing gives me the fucking creeps.

  • Goddammit, I fucking love it.

  • Gekko!!

  • 0:51 fail

  • This is awesome... Soldiers will no longer have to carry all their supplies.

  • this thing is to loud for military

  • @heardistance The only reason it's loud is because they were testing it to make sure it works properly. Alphadog will be 10 times quieter.

  • nice very nice is the birth of a Zoid xD

  • asimov would have been very happy if he saw this with his own eyes.he died too early.he imagined,dreamed this for entire his life but couldnt see in real life.

  • /watch?v=b1B0qwDI64E

  • It looks like two really thin people trying to sneak past you.

  • I want to rape this.

  • This is freaking awesome tech... Metal Gear in prototype phase...

  • I want to kick this.

  • This is almost so human/animal like its scary....

  • I want to hug this.

  • so what do you enjoy doing in your spare time?

    "oh yknow, long walks on the beach with my dog."

  • Funding from DARPA? Maybe our jokes about Metal Gear are more real than we think...

  • @pitcrew Don't forget they're also working on a Cheetah robot along with Petmans twin brother Atlas. Look up FastRunner by ihmc! It's a robotic Ostrich being built with help from MIT and funded by DARPA . It can already run at 20mph from a dead stop on flat and uneven terrain, and could reach as high as 50mph in 2 years.

  • @pitcrew careful theyre working on gekkos and metal gear rex an metal gear ray! maybe some other metal gear!
