We laugh now, but one day the machines will come to rule this planet and humanity will be nothing more than a distant memory. But until then, enjoy footage of complex robots failing at the simplest of tasks!

The DARPA Challenge is a competitive obstacle course that allows robotics teams to win millions in prize money. More than that, the challenge displays the future benefits of general purpose robots that could aide in future disaster relief.

The two posts above show a good, bad & ugly perspective on the robotics challenge...the second post shows the good side of the challenge; what happens when things work...the first post, not so much....
