$10 Million for a Segway Accient

Wow. I read an article by The Daily Mailer Report about a 23 year old man who was riding a Segway for some company demonstration thing (I have a really hard time with pronouns since my injury and I don't understand what company it was or why he was riding a Segway, or who owned the Segway or anything. I bet YOU could read the same article as me and get so much more understanding out of it.) Anyways, for some reason he was doing an obstacle course with NO HELMUT and BLINDFOLDED. Some company, not sure which, didn't even provide helmuts. Poor, poor guy.

In the end, he had to drop out of college and is now a handyman. He sued Segway (and won) for 10 million. I believe he deserves it. No helmuts?? And his whole life is now hindered. He can't do anything. Seriously, if I was supposed to be the breadwinner for this family, we'd be living under the overpass right now. That poor guy's ife of ever working (outside them home) is over.

When we went on our Segway tour of the Marriot in Az, they told us they never had a baby before, but if we brought a carrier for him, that would be fine. They put no helmut on my baby, but they did on us. I remember thinking "I doubt this is safe, but I'm sure they wouldn't do it if its a liability for them." If my baby's head got hurt, I think we would probably be new owners of every Marriot. And probably Segway too.
