Unitree H2-X robot flips over a car on video

Unitree Robotics posted a video of its H2-X humanoid robot on the 21st of October 2026, on its YouTube channel. In it the robot flips over a car, kicks a car door and lifts a car off a person.

The video, "Unitree Introducing: H2-X Kung Fu Legend Guardian", had 971,878 views on the 24th of October, YouTube's counter showed. A humanoid is a robot shaped like a person.

What the H2-X does in the video

The robot jumps from a platform marked 4 meters high, Humanoids Daily reported on the 21st of October. It also guards a person from an actor with a knife.

In one scene it lifts the front of a car off a trapped dummy, a fake person, the outlet wrote. In another it pushes a child-sized dummy out of a car's path.

Below we break down the robot behind it: Unitree's 29,900 dollar H2

The H2-X belongs to Unitree's H2 line, Interesting Engineering wrote. Unitree's page lists the H2 at 1.82 meters tall and about 70 kilograms.

The basic H2 costs 29,900 dollars before tax and shipping, the page shows. The 4 meter jump is more than twice the robot's height, by our arithmetic.

Battery: 8 hours in the video, 3 hours on the H2 page

The H2-X lasts about 8 hours, the video's YouTube description says. The text in the video counts that as time standing, Humanoids Daily wrote.

Unitree's H2 page lists about 3 hours of battery life. On the 24th of October, Unitree's website had no H2-X page, price or sale date.

What is confirmed and what is not

Unitree marks the footage as real and not sped up, Humanoids Daily reported. The film "does not explain how the sequences were controlled or how much human direction they required," the outlet wrote.

Interesting Engineering wrote that "both rescues use props". It said how much the robot did on its own was "still unknown".

Unitree's video description does not say if a person steered the robot by remote control.
