Human male. You can tell by the reaction of both the spectator and the 'robot' when the spectator comes up behind the robot and slips his hand between the robot's legs.
 
Human. Beyond anything else, it would be far too dangerous to allow a robot to move like that in a public place.
 
Hey that robot is doing The Human.

So the 'goose' is the new Turing test? :smile:
 
I don't think its a robot, because we don't have robots advanced enough to be capable of such movements. But stll it moves very fast for a human. It could also be CGI.

* because the human inside the suit is small, yet the suit is big and lightweight, it confuses my brain into thinking that such a heavy object could not move so fast (especially the head) and keep its balance like that.
