Well, I can think of worse ways to go. RIP.

Exactly. His wife had died not long before, and he died doing something he had always wanted to do.

Sad for the rest of his family left behind though.

And, don´t forget: It´s an innovative way to go.
And it has style.
It´s better than the death of a mate´s father, who suffered a stroke while trying too hard to tackle a constipation on the loo.

Or that hardcore-vegan who suffocated from the gasses he produced while sleeping in a small chamber.

Or all the peeps who gained a Darwin award.

Rest in peace, Sir!

....but he's dead happy
RIP

I think it was the wife reaching out from beyond.

Indeed Brer Blast. Well, dying from happiness and excitement... I could envision a lot worse...

I wouldn't have sold him the bike for this exact reason!

Well, as long as he's somewhere happy now.
