Boston Dynamics' Atlas shows off its acrobatic 'gopher' skills
But don't expect an Atlas to replace your local UPS driver anytime soon because for as impressive as this video is, it took a substantial amount of time and effort to develop.

"This is more a demonstration of some of the robot’s new control capabilities, and a fun connection to our prior work,” Scott Kuindersma, Atlas team lead said. “Our hope is that, if we can build the foundational technology that allows us to easily create and adapt dynamic behaviors like these, we should be able to leverage it down the road to perform real, physically-demanding jobs with hustle.
