Listen, we all marveled and cooed at Hinamitetu’s series of Youtube videos at first. Oh, man, look at the cool robot that can do quadruple backflips! Look at how much it’s learned in all these years! And that’s the problem — the robot is getting learning. There’s only a matter of time before its cold red gaze turns towards ruination.
As evidenced by the most recent video, this ingenious little bot is not only able to successfully perform a kovacs and a triple backflip, but it also has a photo sensor eye that can detect light and judge its own distance from the floor while it’s flipping. Humanity is totally doomed, right? Yeah? We’re totally doomed.

- Let’s hope Robo Gymnast never teams up with Robo Raven
- And don’t even get us started on the Wildcat robot
