It looks like an industrial worm-screw drive setup. Engine on the input side (screw) , and sprocket on the output (spur gear) side. Should walk up buildings, but the mileage probably sucks !

So,....someone (assuming it was him) actually spent a good deal of time to build this,....thing? Good welding practice and tube fabrication skills practice. Beyond that I have to ask "why?"
I'll bet my Suzuki GN400 ice bike with 1200 ice screws per tire will out perform this thing.

oh, and this article ,
I'm guessing it's pure fantasy.
