A guy on a segway ran over Usain Bolt after he won the 200 meters at the World Championships
Via Vine
Moments after Usain Bolt re-established himself as the best sprinter in the world with a dominant win the in the 200 meters, a cameraman at the World Championships took him out.
As Bolt strutted along the track carrying a Jamaican flag and waving to fans, a cameraman on a segway tried to go around Bolt, presumably to get a better view.
It all goes wrong when the camerman tried to off-road with his segway, popping one wheel up onto the curb in an attempt to get around Bolt. Segways are many things - sports utility vehicles are not one of them:

As Kareem Streete-Thomp notes, those are expensive legs! It would have been disastrous if Bolt had been seriously injured 12 months before the Olympics, coming off a dominant World Championships in which he's proven he's still at the top of his game.
Stear clear of segways, everyone.
