Default Asimo Fail

so being Honda owners and enthusiasts, we've all seen Asimo but have you seen him fail? i love how he goes up the steps with his head turned to the audience as if to say "look what i can do!" then he fails.

The most amazing robot (that the public knows about) is the Big Dog from Boston Dynamics

While Asimo can't make it up a flight of stairs, Big Dog can walk over any terrain AND won't fall over even if you kick it ON ICE!

Building a bipedal robot is much more complicated than building a quadraped.
