Segway Company Owner Rides Scooter Off Cliff
By
In a twist of irony, British philanthropist Jimi Heseldon, owner of the Segway company, appears to have ridden one of his Segway scooters off a cliff on his private property and died as a result of the fall. It is not known at this time if this was caused by a malfunction or just a tragic accident. Police are still investigating and no foul play is suspected as this time.
A British businessman who bought the Segway company less than a year ago died after riding one of the scooters off a cliff and into a river near his Yorkshire estate. Jim Heselden, known locally as Jimi, acquired the Segway company from its U.S. inventor Dean Kamen in December 2009.
