Video: Cricket Cameraman’s Epic Segway Crash


Here’s some cricket coverage even Giz can get behind (well, in a schadenfreude sort of way). As Australia came back from lunch to bowl against India today, this Channel 9 cameraman hit a helmet and stacked his Segway on live TV. So…apparently you can fall off a Segway, and who knew they had them at the cricket?

Also interesting is that the camera guy in question is no stranger to the spotlight: he’s none other than “Joe the cameraman” who back in 1999 confessed to the infamous “can’t bowl, can’t throw” sledge that some still believe was actually Shane Warne.

Either way, Joe’s OK after today’s spill – and if we could, we’d shout him a beer. [YouTube via ABC]
