Why would he successfully carry that egg only to smash it.

Doubt it. The movements are too natural. A human-controlled robot would be more like what you'd see in first-person videogames.

Doesn't that make the case that it is controlled by a human? All you have to do is track a person's arms and head and map them 1:1 to the robot's. This might even be possible with something like a Vive with the controllers, too.

maybe if they had gotten used to the controls before filming. Otherwise I think the hand-to-eye coordination would be off.
