Ouch! The moment Piers Morgan broke three ribs falling off the Segway he said was 'idiot-proof' | the Daily Mail

Normally I don't laugh at people who've made idiots of themselves....ok so I do, you caught me.  But when Piers Morgan was riding around on his Segway, fell and cracked 3 ribs, you'd think "poor guy".  But then you find out about this little nugget:

His paper, the Daily Mirror, ran the headline in 2003: "You'd have to be an idiot to fall off, wouldn't you Mr President." It added: "If anyone can make a pig's ear of riding a sophisticated, self-balancing machine like this, Dubya can." So, it seems, can Mr Morgan.

Writing in Live magazine this week, Morgan is rueful about the comments on Mr Bush. He says: "Since only he and I appear to have ever fallen off one, I think the makers of the Segway can probably still justifiably claim the machines are "idiot-proof"."

Indeed. :)
