A Rescue Robot from the Tokyo Fire Department

This rescue robot from the Tokyo Fire Department is performing a drill with a manikin. However, I don’t like the way that it is dragging the victim up the ramp by his neck.

Good Lord! Please don’t let that robot rescue me!!!

This is one of several interesting robot photos in The Big Picture at Boston.com, which focuses on News Stories in Photographs. The caption there reads:

Tokyo Fire Department’s rescue robot transfers a mock victim onto itself during an anti-terrorism exercise in the response to a radiological dispersal device in Tokyo, on November 7, 2008. Tokyo Metropolitan government conducted the exercise with eleven organisations including Metropolitan Police Department. (TOSHIFUMI KITAMURA/AFP/Getty Images)
