Reid is suing, claiming the manufacturers should have issued warnings about the exercise machine. Reid says that if he had been given a warning first, he surely would have obeyed and avoided the injuries, which were at the hands of a machine and not at hands of organized crime.Hmm, I wonder if the machine's salesman's name was Guido?

I'm sure there is some kind of warning saying the machine will punch you in the eye if you kick start it.
He's an old man. He's had a similar previous injury.

Funny article.
I’d like to see the actual filing docs, of this *lawsuit*.

“Broke or slipped” sounds like the slip-and-fall attorney’s term for “slipped”.
To: Sacajaweau
The cabinet...that he supposedly repeatedly hit, should’ve come with a warning sign, too.

He had a stroke a few years back. The previous injury, he fell when he went to lean on a car during a run. That tells me he was having trouble. Likely another mini stroke. I'd guess this bike fall is another mini stroke.
Best bet....find out who owns a voodoo doll that looks like Harry.

We need exercise equipment control now with registration a and 5-day waiting period. How many more senators must be hurt!

Some FReepers were speculating a few months ago, that he was beaten up by his drunk brother (not an exercise accident). I am curious as to whether he has really filed court papers, or just had this story “leaked” to provide cover for an embarrassing family situation. ??

Sen Reid has totally justified case against the makers of the exercise machine .
Exercise machines are designed to keep a person in top physical condition and the machines are advertised as being the best at doing so.
People in top physical are able to defend themselves.
Harry Reid got his ass kicked in epic fashion, so obviously he was not in the peak physical condition promised by the machine maker.

His brother is a mean drunk.

The speculation is he was beaten up by the Vegas mobsters who own his a** because he mouthed off to one of them.
Reid is the basis of a character portrayed in Godfather 2 btw...
To: TigerClaws
At least that’s what they say...
To: TigerClaws
Actually, Reid was the character in “Casino” 1995 who denies Robert DeNiro a casino license, after DeNiro comp’d him with broads, parties, trips, etc.
DeNiro’s character was Frank Rosenthal, and “Casino” was based on true events or close to true events during Frank’s time in Las Vegas.
Rosenthal died in 2008, but his website is still active and is a treasure trove of information about the movie and about the characters:

it says it broke OR slipped out of his hands.
The suit is worthless....if I were the judge.
