Big Brother UK invaded by Titan the robot (video)
First off let's be clear: we're not talking about an invasion of the UK surveillance society (this time), instead, we're talking about the Big Brother TV show which, apparently, is still on the air. Enter our old friend Titan the Robot, the 7-foot 3-inch tall, human-operated "robot" from Cyberstein Robots. The flatmates found him hiding in the shower a few days ago before he set off ordering them about. We're sure everyone will be safe, at least until some skank "glamour model" decides to nickname it "chicken." Watch the rather mundane video of the robot-as-answering-machine after the break. Hey, its the best we've got until some desperate-for-stardom flatmate coaxes Titan into bumpin' servos, Bjork-style, on live TV. [Thanks, Wayne Y.]
Titan the Robot dances, sings, scares the bejeezus out of us (video)
This plays out like the opening scene of an 80s sci-fi film: Eight foot tall robot appears in a shopping mall, sings "What a Wonderful World" and "My Way," dances around a bit to a chorus of oohs and aahs from the audience, launches into a series of silly demo movements, and then... Well, we won't spoil it for you. Let's just say that at eight feet tall (and with tons of menace) we have to wonder if Titan the Robot could be stopped should some sort of cinematic "glitch" should cause him to "freak out" amongst the onlookers at Dubai's GITEX 2009. Like most man-made disasters, this one starts innocently enough: with a show-stopping rendition of a Paul Anka tune. Curious? Peep it after the break. Just make sure you don't get close.
