> Now, researchers have found out how to design a robot that could jump over 120 metres in the air

Emphasis on „could“. And you’ll be disappointed if are hoping for a video that shows off this feat.

I can confirm, my google page didn’t show any video of the robot other than the slomo clip from the launch (also present in the submission).

Then there is the claim of 200m jump on the moon. I can understand the lack of video here.
