It is supposedly near impossible to fall off a Segway but GW seems to have no problem breaking that rule ;-))

U.S. President George W. Bush (news - web sites) is pictured in this combo image falling off a Segway personal transporter on the front driveway of his parents' summer home June 12, 2003 in Kennebunkport, Maine. Bush arrived from Washington to spend the weekend with his father, former President George Bush, who celebrates his 79th birthday today and his mother Barbara. Bush was not injured in the fall.

how embarassing to have every move subjected to the judgement of the world ...

if falling over is newsworthy, i'm going to do it more often!

"ladies & gentlemen, i'd like to announce my new product *stumble* *ouch* *thwack*"

"Today while launching new product 'blah', an australian woman fell down a set of stairs and is currently in hospital in a critical condition"

:biglaugh:
free publicity!

[Timon]

for some reason it's much funnier when it's GW ;-)

Doh! :blink:

CJ - while it is funny to laugh at our politicians, you DO make a good point. One could argue that they "ask for it" by becoming public figures, but it still MUST suck to not be able to do anything without the world watching, waiting and ultimately laughing at your every move.

:rolleyes:

cj, darling,

Im sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but you are not the leader of the free world, thus, making you falling less entertaining and not nearly worth as much money.

Roundtrip airfare D.C. to Maine: $87,000.00 in tax money

Segway Personal transporter: $2000.00

Bad ass Camera with Bad ass zoom lense: $3500.00

Photographing GW falling off the Segway frame by frame: Priceless!!!


Sorry, couldnt resist, plus Im on Vodka.




:hic:

You know how people laugh in movies at scenes where people get whacked in the head (Three Stooges) or hurt in some other way? I don't most of the times. Sometimes. Rarely. I don't why.

Didn't I see a pic of Buff falling off one of those at Michaels office? ;)

That is because in theory it's impossible to fall off a Segway, only extreme morons are able to do it ;-))

be afraid... be very afraid :redance:

[sarettah]

In mike's shots of the segway last week, wasn't there one of someone falling off...

It's probably a little easier to crash and burn then the manufacturers would have you think...

:lol:

And at least George Jr. hasn't puked on an ambassador on live TV yet...
:yowsa:

Yes it is easy to fall off : )

With GW taking a spill does this mean Chevy Chase can dust off his Ford impression and pass it off as Dubya?

VirtuMike couldn't fall off that fucker... nuff said... :^P

[Mike AI]

Timon, it is easier to fall then you think. ( Plus looks like he just bailed, not actually fell) My first time I had to bail off.... infact so far I have ridden it 3 times, and had to bail 3 different times. Of course the last 2 were because I was trying high risk manuevers.... ( hopping up stairs, and popping up a curb)

Not sure if these photos will hurt our help Segland.... Good expose hopefully....
