triachus Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 The multi-millionaire owner of the Segway company died in a freak accident yesterday when he rode one of the high-tech two-wheel machines off a cliff and into a river. Former miner Jimi Heselden, 62, plunged into the River Wharfe while riding around his West Yorkshire estate in Boston Spa on a rugged country version of the Segway. He bought the firm last December and was using one of the machines - which use gyroscopes to remain upright and are controlled by the direction in which the rider leans - to inspect the grounds of his property. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1315518/Segway-owner-Jimi-Heselden-dies-riding-machines-cliff.html#ixzz10jWHuv71 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Deep Fried Everything Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 LOL , that's like Bill Gates dying from a computer virus. not quite.. it would only be ironic if he died while doing something which purportedly the segway was designed to do well, or efficiently, or summat.
