  • Do the prototype team think we are stupid???She was using the ropes under her feet to push herself up

  • dude... those ropes were connected to the gecko grip things on the wall. So she was totally supported by the gecko grip prototypes. Get it?

  • i agree with itsbeach, the ropes are hanging in a slight curve, so she clims with the two boxes

  • I was one of the fabricators on Prototype This! This was a fun, but difficult build. That rig actually uses research gleaned from beetle and spider legs. We did also build a gecko climbing rig but it looks more like a set of tennis racquets covered in silicone.
