This is one of the most astonishing things I have seen for a long time.

We think we are so far ahead in technology from the past.

It is incredible to see what people did in the past.

I did not know about this and could not believe my eyes when watching this mechanical boy.

This was made with such precision and perfection and he was a clock maker by trade.

This is like programming something today as we can do it with technology but this was done 240 years ago.

I did not know that there were things made so long ago, that shows us what went on in people’s minds.

I was stunned by this little boy and he can even be programmed.

Thank you for reading my story and have a wonderful day from me here at the Wild Coast.

Built to last, what a lovely invention. The details on the figure are amazing, shows how people have been tinkering with the idea of automation for a long time.

I agree is it not beautiful, could not believe my eyes. When getting old you think you know everything then you find something like this.

Never enough time to know it all, always lovely surprises wait around the next corner.

Lot has to be said (especially in this matter) about know the history, it normally affects the future. This leans toward robotic future, another not so new, is to do with crypto (Google) "Timeline of cryptography."
