This is a terrible web site (sorry), but it has a 10 second video of a humanoid robot acting quite threatening to a crowd, requiring handlers to restrain it:
Humanoid robot dragged away after ‘attacking’ crowd of people at festival

Looks like it was trying to head butt someone in the crowd.
It did not look like it was balancing very well in the first place so it may have just "tripped" and started to fall forward. letting a robot walk around free in front of a crowd like that ranks up there with the kind of stupidity involved in holding fireworks and shooting them in the direction of people. The robot like the fireworks are not capable of threatening but both could cause harm. -- Alvin Starr || land: (647)478-6285 Netvel Inc. || home: (905)513-7688 alvin@netvel.net ||
