Spider Bot Climbs Up Walls

Check out this crazy robot here. Very impressive, the thing actually can climb up walls!

It uses the same principles that are in place when you rub a balloon on your head and stick it on the ceiling, from what I understand. I wonder how much static electricity they'd have to conjure up to allow something that actually matters to move up a wall. Rescue bots, perhaps? That'd be cool.
