Sounds like he was nice man
People don’t kill people, Segways do. Maybe the segway had ideas of becoming the next TOTUS......and then decided to commit suicide after seeing what an embarassing job it was covering up for obIWONa all the time.
Was he sick?? Because it sounds like suicide.
On land to over cliff. Not a good segway...
Already posted four times today.
Well, apparently it wasn’t posted under this headline, cuz I searched.
The other sources were British
But did he land in the upright position??? He’s just another Darwin candidate with too much money to play with. Money can’t buy common sense I guess.
Wow! His death is symbolic of how the UK is leading the West (including the USA) off the cliff of destruction.
If a person can stand up they can walk. Everytime I see someone on one of these it looks like the opitome of laziness.
Wow! Lots of snarky comments.....prayers to his family.

True but they can’t walk twelve miles an hour, that is about the pace of a world class marathoner. Still, it really doesn’t seem to have a lot of practical uses as far as I can see.
For the Segway or his helmet.
I wonder if his last words were, “Oh Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii.....”

Just because it’s a “special” (nudge nudge wink wink) relationship doesn’t mean it’s a healthy one.

I’ve tried the search feature on this site
quite a few times, not always easy to find what
I’m looking for. This article may have already
been posted, but for me, this is the first time
I’m seeing it.
