axlrose Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 Gotta say, I've probably clocked more than 20 hours on one of these things and I have no idea how you'd ride it over a cliff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True story, we had to explain that to a ton of people who asked. Apparently, (the company story goes) it was already on when they handed it to him. He didn't know and he turned it off, right before he stepped on. Best president ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djones0930 Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 I am to believe he thought he was inspector gadget and trusted it would work if he said "go-go-gadget segway helicopter" or "go-go-gadget segway parachute" But it didn't work. Apparently he died. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
