Robot attacked Swedish factory worker

Jesus, they were already trying to kill us in 2007. Maybe we need to revise our projections...

The incident took place in June 2007 at a factory in BÄlsta, north of Stockholm, when the industrial worker was trying to carry out maintenance on a defective machine generally used to lift heavy rocks. Thinking he had cut off the power supply, the man approached the robot with no sense of trepidation.

But the robot suddenly came to life and grabbed a tight hold of the victim's head. The man succeeded in defending himself but not before suffering serious injuries.
