"While performing a dance routine, involving waving its arms and shaking its hips, the robot suddenly slams its hands down on a table. This sends chopsticks and bright yellow sauce flying into the air, while staff race over to try and turn it off. But the humanoid continues to dance throughout the altercation - which saw three employees wrestle with the robot and try to drag it away by the scruff of its neck."
"During the chaotic scene, one employee can be seen holding the robot by a large handle at the back of its neck while desperately searching on her phone - presumably to find the controls. Staff trying to apprehend the humanoid were forced to periodically duck out the way to avoid being hit by its waving hands."
"One concerned viewer added: 'All jokes aside, shouldn't there always be a big red button or a kill switch somewhere on the robot?' The incident appears to have been part of a promotional event for Disney's 'Zootopia 2' at the restaurant."
A humanoid robot performing a dance routine at Haidilao hotpot restaurant in San Jose, California suddenly malfunctioned, slamming its hands on a table and scattering chopsticks and sauce. Three employees attempted to restrain and drag the robot away, but it continued dancing throughout the altercation. Staff searched for controls while dodging the robot's flailing arms. The incident occurred during a Disney's 'Zootopia 2' promotional event. Customers found the malfunction amusing rather than concerning. The viral video sparked online jokes about robot takeovers and safety concerns regarding emergency shutdown mechanisms. Haidilao, known for investing in automated kitchen technology, operates the restaurant chain.
