Segway Company Owner Dies After Driving Segway Off Cliff.


My favorite part of the Gizmodo article (bold mine):

Police believe that it was just a freak accident, with nothing suspicious about the man worth $262m falling to his death.

Really?  Especially when you consider how he died?


The obvious question in all this, is of course: Which CSI wants to take this one?


According to one of the Gizmodo commenters, the answer is Miami.

Don't get the idea that I'm making fun of the poor guy.  What happened to him was awful.  I wonder why he couldn't stop.  I also have to wonder how safe a Segway really is.  This sure doesn't make me want to go out and ride one.
