Oh, that video is amazing. It is obvious that (if it is not fake) there were some people struggeling hard to make everything move smooth and sound (sort of) musical. Well done...

What's the big deal? I've seen plenty of robots on stage . . . . even played with a few.

Quadrotors

Amazing how they are smart enough to generate momentum to complete maneuvers where their lift is negated, such as the inverted perch.
