Segway 2.0

Posted by: Nathan Campbell | Wednesday, 8 April 2009, 17:11 | Category : Curiosities

What do you get when you cross a Segway with a smart car? A Puma apparently. The world has gone bonkers over this new announcement — and given my previous fixation with the gyroscopic transporter I couldn’t let this slide…

I saw a guy in a wheelchair like this the other (without the visor bit). It was on two wheels, and it raised up so his head was at ‘normal’ height with everyone else.. baffled me how it worked.

About St. Eutychus

Eutychus was a young man who fell to his death because the Apostle Paul preached for too long (Acts 20). I've decided to canonise Eutychus and make him the patron saint of my dalliances around the Internet.
