Japan unveils working Rescue robot 12 feet tall.

I would sh!t my pants if I saw that thing picking up giant rocks coming to "rescue" me.

Stupid swear filter... now I'm not the first to post this.

I have a hard time believing that Enryu is Japanse for "rescue dragon". Why would they have a word for "rescue dragon"???

I have zero comprehension of the Japanese language but their words may be structured in such a way that different syllables are words themselves. They just tack them together to make a bigger word/phrase.

"ryu" means "dragon". Make sense now?
 
Damn, just think how many lives we could have saved if US developed this technology before 9/11. Those thousand's of firemen/policemen's lives would have been saved. Damn US Department of National OFFENSE, needs to get their head outta their ass and stop making bombs to blow people up and make something more useful...

...While morbid, I will let you in on this. It was well published that not as many people survived the collapse of the buildings as the intial panicked news reports led everyone to believe. It was something like they were not find whole corpses but pieces of bodies.

I doubt this would have helped anyone on 9/11. Maybe in earthquakes it will be of more use.
