The Chinese robot Iron, developed by XPeng, unwittingly performed a remarkable feat of acrobatics during a presentation at a Shenzhen shopping mall. The android suddenly fell.

XPeng's CEO hastened to downplay the situation on social media, comparing the incident to the behavior of a small child: "Fall, get up, run." In this way, the top manager attempted to portray the technical glitch as a natural and necessary learning process.
