A rescue robot that picks up victims and takes them inside of itself. What could possibly go wrong?

The Robocue is operated by the Tokyo Fire Department and used to extract people from areas where rescue workers can’t go safely. It then uses pincers to pull a person on to a conveyor belt and inside its protective walls. Video at the link.
