The three moments people remembered from the 2026 World Humanoid Robot Games in Beijing: the 45.66-second “shy-run” 400 m, the 64 km/h SIUUU free kick, and the 8.64-second 100 m sprint faster than Usain Bolt on the stopwatch.

Tiangong Ultra （天工 Ultra） lowered the 100 m robot record three times in five days (9.39 → 8.86 → 8.64 s). 0.94 s faster than Usain Bolt on the stopwatch — and why the finish-line crash photo is the equally important lesson.
