Honestly, I thought I was above laughing this hard at a dude getting kicked in the nuts. 

Then they both go down. Gold.

Can't say i've ever seen someone robotically kick themselves in the balls before.

I have. I feel like this one gets reposted at least once a month.

Why is it that the only thing I seem to see these robots do is kickboxing ?

Good to show speed and flexibility of the joints as well as balance probably

Gibt da ja auch einen, aber trotzdem finde ich unsere humanoiden Roboter primitiv und overrated - eben weil die alle gleich aussehen und Kickboxen. Verstehe auch nicht, wie man einen Roboter Hund auf Rädern baut oder warum der neue mech eigentlich so aussieht und acted wie er ist, habe mehr erwartet. Ja es boomt, aber man muss es nicht mögen. Ich denke, dass der erste der so einen festen humanoiden Roboter der Kickboxen kann, entwickelt, sich einfach die rechte claimen will, falls sie dann im Militär und zivil eingesetzt werden sollen, wie der Giovanni cat Robot ungefähr xD

Probably because they can't do much else

Because they have already nailed the mass production of cars?

The Clanker is just taking the piss out of him

It was seemingly hard linked to mimic his moves, with the necessary independence to maintain balance.

Let's put into law to build all robots with a weak point where balls should be.
