Simbi Laveau Posted September 16, 2013 #1 Share Posted September 16, 2013 (edited) http://news.cnet.com/8301-17938_105-57602649-1/awesome-fire-breathing-dragon-is-worlds-largest-walking-robot/ 30 feet high. 51 feet long and oh yeah, it breathes fire. Broadsword? Check. Shield? Check. Liquid courage? Gulp! OK, you're ready to take on the dragon.At nearly 30 feet high, this fire-breathing monster looks unreal enough, but it's very real indeed. It's also the world's largest walking robot, according to the new "Guinness World Records 2014" book, released Thursday.Built by Germany's Zollner Elektronik AG, an electronics maker,Tradinno the dragon is 51 feet long and has a wingspan of 40 feet.Tradinno, a play on "tradition" and "innovation," can walk around, flap its leathery wings, and breathe fire from its mouth and nostrils. The 11-ton mechatronic beast may not be able to fly, but it sure can make an impression. Edited September 16, 2013 by Simbi Laveau 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
