Rednecks Build Mechanical Spider Because They Can.

I think I must agree with the poster of this video on YouTube:

"I have no idea who these guys are, but they managed to build an 8-legged, gas-powered spider mech in their spare time. Screw NASA and DARPA - turn them over to rednecks plus Burt Rutan and we'll have a Mars colony and Robotech in 10 years."
