It was Manslaughter I Tell Ya

I was doing my own thing watching a repeat of Law & Order to most but new to me considering I don’t particularly like them but that was what the other person was watching. So I am doing 3.9 miles/hour at a 4% incline sweating my ass off under some bright lights when I see the aftermath. One of the other members came through the door with one of the people who work there. She had her machine up to the full 7% incline stopped pacing back and forth while the guy went searching for her small shiny item underneath this behemoth of a machine. He managed to get his hand underneath the tread only to pull out what remained of this poor little iPod. Yep, an iPod bit the dust underneath the tread of a treadmill while going at a pretty high speed. Toast. It was all mangled up. I don’t think the warranty will cover that.

    I am confused, how did the ipod get under the machine?

    I’d have to agree, I don’t think that’ll be covered under warranty! :razz:

    you never know, Apple is pretty good about things, though this case seems like obvious operator error.
