    Well, the logical answer to what happened is that something caused the man to lose control or balance (stroke, debilitating heart murmur/attack, light-headedness etc.) and the Segway went in the direction he lurched and over the cliff it went. Anyone who has ever driven a segway knows what I mean (I took an island tour on one this summer).

    He should have left his segway in turtlemode.

    Aces - don't harsh my mellow. It was Skynet, not some heart attack or a stroke.

    A sinister, plot-hatching AI bent on human annihilation is a more comforting cause of this man's death for you, Lou?

    What do you expect, man? Look where you're at and the company you're in! Some people around here pray for zombies to become a reality, FFS.

    It would've been even better if it was a zombie that pushed him over the cliff - and even better than that if the zombie infestation was caused by Skynet itself!

    Shit, where'd I put my tinfoil hat?!

    Besides a person losing their life that's funny as hell man.

    If that was in a sketch comedy show we'd all be rolling.

    ahh, i've never even seen a segway in real life so yeah, didn't know they purport to be 100% safe of injury - anyway that claim is massively false, all I gotta do is fall off it and hit the corner of a table on the way down and there you go, head injury.

    yeah if you make the list you're held in quite high regard - or just regarded as a rich bastard.

    Its kinda our way of looking at a list of people and branding them all cunts for the sake of it - but hey at least we have a reason.

    So the rich people like it because it lets everyone else know they're filthy rich.....while you guys make fun of them because you're NOT filthy rich?

    Yes, on of the poor's favorite passtimes is to make fun of the rich, all the while wishing they were in their shoes.

    Isn't that ironic? Doncha think?
