Watching this robot land weird and shoot hydraulic fluid out of its knees makes me physically uncomfortable, but I gotta say it's pretty neat how similar the "panic motions" to regain its balance are to human attempts to regain balance.

It's more uncomfortable seeing the same thing happen with a human but maybe that's just me.

Certainly, but with its "lifelike" movement I couldn't help but have a visceral response to seeing it's knee blow out. Not something I anticipated watching a fancy hunk of metal hop around.
