An electric new era for Atlas
could they have come up with a more terrifying way for it to standup? I can't think of one.

I think this is on purpose to show the extra freedom of movements of the new model compared to the hydraulic one.

Also, it can get up off the ground by itself. I don't think I ever saw any of the previous Atlas robots doing that, and it's an important feature, since the primary failure mode of a bipedal robot is falling down.
