If you thought Big Dog's extreme stability was amazing, think again! Now equipped with a high-tech robotic arm, Big Dog is able to hurl heavy cinder blocks over a few yards away. However, its not the arm doing all the work. With the clever designs from Boston Dynamics, this robot uses its legs to maneuver in a special way to aid its throwing arm. If you pay attention to the movement of its legs as it vigorously throws the brick, you'll notice that they jerk in unison with the swaying arm. Both its legs and arm work together and achieve great strength. A strength that can even hurl a big brick several feet into the air.
