British tycoon, Jimmy Heselden, who purchased the Segway company and was test-driving a "rugged" version of the popular scooter, apparently lost control of the vehicle and careened over a cliff near his home. The 62-year-old philanthropist's body, along with the prototype Segway, were recovered from the River Wharfe on September 27th. The conditions surrounding his death are under investigation, and are unknown at this time.
