Skeletal 'beests' walk the shoreline - BBC News 

I love how he says: "When I leave the planet." It's like in a few years he's going to mars.

I can hardly remember that something inspired me more than this. I wish Theo to succeed in his efforts to create the ultimate strand beest!

Fascinating use of wind driven mechanics. I've seen other videos like this and have really been impressed. Would love to see one in real life.

That looks amazing! It reminds me of Leonardo da Vinci's drawings.

This man is incredibly intelligent and creative.

I just discovered these this second and im blown away. Absolutely magical.

This has to be the most amazing thing I've ever seen. I would really love to get a close look at the mechanics of it.

This is art, engineering and spirituality, all at the same time

Thank you RU-vid. I'm pretty old and would never have known about such a wondrous thing as this if it hadn't been for you.

Welcome to the weird world of theo jansen.

Amazing. If his designs will one day be used on the Venus Missions - that would be epic!

In literature it is known as Theo Jansen mechanism which is very well known by Mechanical Engineers who interested in linkages...

Wow, I really likes this guy confidence...really impressive work.

Listened to his lectures before at the Delft University. Very cool guy and inspiring as well.

This dude is a modern Leonardo DaVinci in the making...

Singular - Strandbeest Plural - Strandbeesten -'_-

i love how this artist just makes an entire family tree and time periods for these strandbeests

imagine making a herd of them roam a strandbeest national park

Regarding traversing salt plains for lithium exploration...Holmes Jenson are the new Land Rover...I am thinking .. Thanks Theo totally loved your show and exhibition at the Verbeke Institute in Belgium.....

Wow ...what a man ! What a gift to humanity before u leave the planet!

They should incorporate something like this for Mars Rovers. The main problem with most Rovers is they have to be solar paneled and they get stuck in the mud sometimes. Obviously there's a lot of thought that goes into mars rovers and the robot would still benefit from wheels, but if engineers needs the robot to go 50 km in one direction on a flat plain, one of these beasts could do it a lot faster with a lot less energy.

Sooo beautiful ! 🪰

Long time passed, and I am still mesmerized by it💐❤

So cool! Every beach should have those!

They are so scaring but interesting . Walking skeletons 😳.

why am i still working a 5 to 9 job when we have inventions like this, one of many.

To you, who edited this, I love you

Fascinating! This mind-blowing video is really entertaining. I'm relaxing while watching this amazing creatures

*mr crabs walking noises*

This guy is evidently extremely smart

What an amazing and graceful creature!

Man what a moving concept, a way to create a self sufficient and replicating creature, while avoiding all ethical problems and making something breathtaking, this could change people's view on Life as a whole

I've got a really amazing idea, what if the strandbeests eat plastic bottles and trash off the beach and 3D print then into new strandbeests like reproduction and cleaning the environment at the same time!!!👏👏👏

Fascinating creatures!

I love these things!!!

I have seen his exhibition in Mexico city. fascinating

These creations remind us that we are animals who are using energy to discover the world. We are connected to this planet.

These are really amazing but do they have any purpose?? Just curious

If they were connected to plants then maybe there tecnacly living

Creativity will help save planet aswell. 😉

Fascinating

This subject tickles my fancy

Amazing

If Frederico Fellini, the Italian film maket, was still around....he would incorporate this material into his out-of-this-world approach. World renowned Guilermo de Toro, still around....would love this work. He would film it.

The beest' walking sound feels like ASMR to me 😁

Wouldn’t you love to travel to work on one of those. Incredible

Lol best thing I've ever seen !!!!!

Grande! Immenso! Meraviglioso!

1:36 that's quite a fantastical dream but if others continue his research/hobby then in a way he succeeded

Phenomenal 💎

Very very fantastic

magical

BBC News. "Beest" Quality Control has left the building.

Last Oasis honered him

❤faantastic...

Theo you are a great genious …..you are one hundred per cent developement brain 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍

He really know that his time is limited. Other forgotten

Удивительные создания.😊

2:45 how the hell does that movement work? I can't see any strings or linkages or pulleys or anything on this mechanism, and if they're made only out of PVC...how is he getting that movement?

Wonder if he would approve or disapprove of Last Oasis game

Wow

Easiest SAT prompt ever

How smart is this guy? Also slightly eccentric, which is possibly why he's so smart......

Lol. People are awesome 👏

അമ്പമ്പോ... pwoli സാധനം...

TATAKAE

Leonardo davinci of modern times

❤!

Awesome! 👍👍

nice

The only contraption that gave me nightmares!

Imagine 300 years ago this guy would have died and possibly faded until an old notebook turned up.

How does he get it in the car? Or does he ride the beast home?

Волшебник

I wish this was in 360

No wonder the beach is totally empty.

Man is the mother of all invention.

future 🙌

Aliens

Theo Jansen

I was fascinated by his strandbeests, but as much disappointed by his concluding comment ... Venus ... most watched RU-vid video ...

Is it me or does this guy looks like Paul Rudd

Guy is talking terminator here

Потом он научит эти штуки размножаться, и миру явится механическая форма жизни.

Music??

I'll just call it a walker.

Brain flash, what if this could actually be turned into a mechanical harvester of big fields of grass, ran on wind power.

Granted the design and thought awesome . However, i wish they cleaned beaches opinion.

Where are the ballistas and repeaters?

"I want an animal that can survive on it's own" "Artist talk" aside, what does he mean by this? a self maintaining structure or a concept that could work as a real animal.

without motor how it is rotating

If this Thing Could roam the beaches and Collect Plastik in a way, we could clean without any source of Energy 💨

🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

Impressive 😊

without motor how it is moving

complete mad lad, and NASA gave him tax money for ideas. LOL

You can get your message out on YT and the internet? nOoOo waay...

This is kinda weird tho. Like how these ordinary strand beest became famous!? Really odd.

This is where Eren Yeager attack titan form was base/inspired
