The video starts with the host, Alan Pan, introducing himself and admitting to being an animal lover. He mentions his previous video where he caught and released a wild snake, and how this act has led people to label him as a snake lover rather than an abuser. He expresses sympathy for snakes, stating that they lack legs and are often ignored.
Alan then contacts the LA Zoo to ask about finding missing snake legs, but learns that it would cost over two thousand dollars to speak with a snake expert. Instead, he visits a pet store offering reptile birthday parties, where he pretends it's his birthday and asks about the missing legs. He learns that the missing legs are vestigial, meaning they are no longer functional.
Alan then shares a humorous yet educational segment about the different ways animals have evolved and deformed, including snakes that have genes that grow two penises instead of two legs. He also shares a segment about how humanity has built new legs for animals, but no one has built robotic legs for snakes.
Alan then presents his pet project: a pair of robotic legs for snakes. He explains that these legs have two servos and are connected to a servo controller board that can be programmed with a laptop. The body of the snake is housed in a tube, allowing the snake to enter and exit whenever it wants.
Alan then shares a segment about how he learned to program the legs using a live reptile from a pet store. He then shares a segment about how he found a professional snake breeder on Instagram who agreed to help him test the legs on a snake.
The video concludes with Alan successfully programming the robotic legs for a snake, which the snake appears to accept. Alan then takes the snake on a walk, demonstrating how the snake can now move around with the robotic legs.
Throughout the video, Alan also shares a promotional segment about Skillshare, a platform where he can learn and teach various skills. He expresses his gratitude to Skillshare for sponsoring his video.
In summary, Alan Pan, a self-proclaimed snake lover, creates and tests a pair of robotic legs for snakes. The video showcases his creative and educational approach to understanding and interacting with snakes, and also serves as a promotional video for Skillshare.
