I had posted this in the sexbox, but I still got a chuckle out of it today, so I wanted to post it here.

The millionaire owner of the Segway company has died after falling from cliffs while riding one of his firm's motorised scooters.

Jimi Heselden, 62, crashed into the River Wharfe while riding the vehicle round his estate in Thorp Arch, Boston Spa, West Yorkshire, on Sunday.

He was pronounced dead at the scene. The scooter was found in the water.

I predict that this thread will Crash with so few puns available.

Maybe it wasn't an accident. Could have been a scootercide.

Perhaps he was scootering while intoxicated

I guess this was a poor attempt to segway into a mountain climbing career!

Jesus, you guys are on a roll.

Perhaps he should have weighed in on the risks before making such a dangerous decision.

	The basis of our governments being the opinion of the people, the very first object should be to keep that right; and were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers, or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter. But I should mean that every man should receive those papers and be capable of reading them.
