    Ouch! - He fell HARD - no “instinctive” programmed arms-down recovery for him, then.

    These guys can always get a job at Microsoft when Asimo pops its clogs.

    Anyone else feel sorry for him?
    “c’mon, little buddy! Shake it off! You’ll be okay!…”

    the amount of engineering and control systems it takes just to make that thing balance itself and walk is respectable. watching it fall down the stairs just hurts on so many levels. damn funny though! i love how they bring the screen out to cover it up…
