It's insane how they are so efficient with just spring power, i would like to see a pair of those pushed to the limits of spring power to make the blades Lauch the runner into the air as if it were on low gravity.
These people are badasses i wouldnt want to say i envy them because well they dont have legs and i do but this would be cool to have for a day just to see how high i could jump
There’s actually a lot controversy surrounding gadgets such as these on whether they give an unfair advantage to the athletes because Human feet are actually quite inefficient. Bipedalism is quite recent in the history of our species and our feet were designed to climb and hold until recently.
I am willing to cut off my own legs so I can look like a freaking velociraptor... Edit: After two years and some reflection on my own life, I've decided that I would still cut off my own legs for some cool looking prosthetics.

How many years till we see better-than-human performance from these? Like what he mentions in the end?

I was just thinking that
im a left leg amputee below knee amputee and yeah it looks awesome to have a running leg ,but i dont have one yet :(
How disrespectful ! Being an amputee is difficult and a daily challenge, not only about cool-looking prosthetics. This is insensitive. Cut it out.
