The owner of Segway Company died Sunday after falling off a 30 foot cliff. James Heselden's body was found in the River Warfe with a "segway like vehicle" not far from him. Authorities are not suspecting false play but are still unsure of what caused him to plummet from the cliff. The British businessman is mourned by his wife, 5 children and 8 grandchildren.
I found it very ironic that this death occurred because the company was researching ways to make the segway safer. Segway, obviously, now has to do some crisis management in order to preserve the validity and safety of their product.

This reminds me of that story where the man that came up with the Atkins diet died of heart failure. Sad story.
