Walking wind powered beasts

Pretty cool to build one of these on your next weekend off !

Man, if I saw one of those walking towards me, i think it would scare the crap out of me.

I wonder what would happen if they left on of those things out and unbraked, and the wind caught it and caused it to go walking all over the place. Can you imagine the reports and panic they would create?

Its a pretty cool art project. That would be funny, they do look very menacing !

i wouldnt wanna be on that when it breaks...
But nevertheless it is a very scary machine...
look's like it made of giant tooth pics

Good lord. Those things would give Stephen King nightmares...

yes they would. the video at the bottom of the page is the creepiest... reminds me of terminator 3.... judgement day is coming...

I think they are amazing because they are pretty big and to have something large trolling across the beach like that is pretty cool !

yea the last one looks like its on a warpath!!
i was wondering what would the uses be for these things?
anything beneficial?
i mean im sure there would be a lot of uses, but what?

Its light weight would make it easily deployed on a battlefield, and it could be used to carry supplies unreachable by helicopter without putting pilots at risk.

Or then again, you could drop one on the enemy and theyll crap their pants. those things look like the spawn of hell.
