Even if Heads Fall, Run! Beijing’s First Disabled Robot Marathon Cracks up the Audience

.

On April 19th, the first-ever robot HALF-marathon took place in Beijing. As the starting gun fired, 20 robot teams powered up and embarked on the 21-kilometer challenge. But the race was filled with mishaps, leaving spectators and those following the event stunned. Some robots lost their heads mid-race, others collapsed at the start, some spun in circles, and others fell down with cramps. The only "beautiful" lady robot, "Huanhuan," malfunctioned right at the start and was forced to leave.
