Can't find the footage. This particular robot has a video camera on its belly, so perhaps it filmed itself getting beat up.

This don't-waste-your-time funny fact-free discussion of the man-bites-robot incident suggests that robots can and should be used as an outlet for people's rage. "Better than beating up people," the guest says.

The discussion is in English but it also has English subtitles. At 4'29", the subtitles say, "OK so you're advocating rage rowboats..."

I suspect the subtitles were written by rowboats, I mean robots.
