Boston Dynamics really thinks out-of-the-box and creates some very amazing and awesome robots.

When you see this kind of thing in movies, it's cool, but when you see something real doing it, it almost creepy.  Amazing.

That thing did not just jump onto the roof (Yes, it did). Wow, that is amazing for such a compact little rover!!!

Given this unit uses CO2 as a power source, it's not surprising at all that it can leap that high.  Similar technology is used to launch grappling hooks between two ships or onto rooftops.
