I bet it must have taken some real confidence on Dean's part to try the chair for the first time!

: If anyone needs a copy of the Dateline program showing this amazing chair, Team Hammond will have some available at the Rumble. If anyone else would like a copy, let me know.
: As for the gyro module, I think Dean leaned on the manufacurer to donate them for the kit.
: I am curious about the fail safe provisions that Dean certainly has built in to handle failures, such as computer or motor malfunctions, particularly when in the 'stand up' mode. I bet it uses gravity and returns safely to four wheel position.
: Looking forward to seeing you folks at the Rumble.
