The dancing Boston Dynamics robot is even scarier when set to 'SexyBack'

Look at those hips.

If you thought it was scary enough when the Boston Dynamics robot dog SpotMini danced its robot ass off to "Uptown Funk," you ain't seen nothing yet.

Turns out, SpotMini's menacing moves are even more upsetting when set to the funky, eerie tune of Justin Timberlake's 2006 hit "SexyBack."

Redditor u/MattShea replaced the happy Bruno Mars song with the much darker Timberlake one and uploaded it to the subreddit r/funny, even though it's not funny at all. In fact, it's pretty unsettling to watch.

We see what you're twerking with, Spot. Please promise not to whip us if we misbehave.
