Marc Raibert built a Uniroo hopping robot.

BG So instead of jumping off a plane, yes?

And these allow them to hop.

Péter Fankhauser Meet Rezero, the dancing ballbot

They did ballet they did tap they did jazz they did modern they did contemporary.

I will dance and resist and dance and persist and dance.

Four guys dancing on treadmills, no cuts, just a static camera.

So, once again, mobile phone shaped box, but this one, it has a breath and a heartbeat, and it feels very organic.

Jump as high as you can.

All throughout the developing world, people are going directly to cell phones, skipping the whole landline stage.

All right, get up! Come on and dance! DH Dance, come on. BF Come on and dance!

And they can be modeled by a spring mass system that we call the spring mass system because we're biomechanists. It's actually a pogo stick.

The actual day came, and we walked out of the house that we were dancing in. Yes, we danced and danced.

And then we had dancing. We had everyone dance.

That's why jump, like that? No, don't jump.

Polar bears need ice to be able to move back and forth they're not very good swimmers and we know what's happening to the ice.

In this picture you can see there is a four way skydive, four people flying together, and on the left hand side it's the camera flyer with the camera mounted to his helmet so he can film the whole jump, for the film itself and also for the judging.

I'm going to skip way ahead here to the space phase.

Trying to imagine a diver diving into water hardly makes a splash.

It was around this time we went from 1K to 16K, which was quite the leap.

Well, the heart beats, rhythmically, tirelessly, faithfully.

Onstage at TEDGlobal, Péter Fankhauser demonstrates Rezero, a robot that balances on a ball. Designed and built by a group of engineering students, Rezero is the first ballbot made to move quickly and gracefully and even dance.

FLTK Checkers

Hopscotch

Hop in.

Or this jump, from a moving truck on the highway.

BG So the beginning of the flight is actually you jump off a plane or a helicopter, and you go on a dive and accelerate the engines, and then you basically take off mid air somewhere.

This is the step off. He's written on that thing, The highest step in the world.

The fastest way out of a bad mood step outside, go for a walk, turn the radio on and dance.

Checkers Game

Somebody dance! Come on!

Aoi dances.

I want to dance.

American diver Abby Johnston, who is competing on the springboard, said she showed up for her warmup, only to learn the pool was shut down without any notice.

And the fact that I asked for help how many people jumped on board?

And as we danced and danced, and we approached this circle of women, men, women, children, everybody was there.

From regular, relative skydiving I went on to freeflying.

So, initially nothing happens, they're just flipping around there.

He makes them also to skip like a calf Lebanon and Sirion like a young, wild ox.

Leaping up, he stood, and began to walk. He entered with them into the temple, walking, leaping, and praising God.
