Segway Guy is the second playable character in Happy Wheels. He is one of the four original Happy Wheels characters included in the game from release, alongside Wheelchair Guy, Irresponsible Dad and Effective Shopper. Segway Guy rides a metallic-silver, spring-loaded segway, capable of jumping into the air. The pole on the segway can only face up and can't be rotated. This is why he cannot do a 360 loop level. 360 hoop levels often result in death. His attire consists of a white bicycle helmet (similar to the one worn by Irresponsible Dad, Irresponsible Mom or Pogostick Man), a grey business suit (accompanied by a dark red neck-tie), and black shoes. Segway Guy appears to be a middle-aged businessman, possibly of the upper-class (based on the fact that he owns a segway). He is slightly fatter than the other non-obese characters.
Segway Guy is often a forced character in levels where the player must immediately eject (like ball throws or ragdolls). But although with the new hide vehicle feature, these levels have become unpopular. Because the segway can easily be held by small shapes, escaping from his vehicle and crawling away is easier for Segway Guy than other characters. He is also considered a very basic character with no gimmick/feature (besides jumping and reattaching to his segway).
Segway Guy, Effective Shopper, the man of the Moped Couple, and Pogostick Man are the only four characters capable of reattaching to their vehicle after ejection.

Trivia
Edit
- Segway Guy, Effective Shopper, Lawnmower Man, and Pogostick Man are the only characters capable of jumping (although the segway cannot keep its wheels out as the lawnmower can).
- Segway Guy's voice is also used for Explorer Guy and was formerly used for the man of the Moped Couple and Lawnmower Man
- A voice resembling Segway Guy's voice can be heard from Irresponsible Dad's son.
- Both Segway Guy and Explorer Guy have the same body weight.
- If he breaks his arms, he will eject from his segway.
- He is infamous for frequently breaking his legs when he falls down a slight distance; however, if you press Ctrl or space as he is falling, his legs won't break as easily though holding shift will make his legs break even more easily. Another way to avoid this is to eject from the segway, but attach to it again, making his legs limp.
- The segway has the lowest number of pieces when it breaks: two.
- If you eject within a confined area (weapon throws are good examples) and hold Z and SPACE, he will repeatedly eject/grab onto the segway and the "air jump" sound will keep playing until you stop.
- If Segway Guy's legs break, he will repeatedly run over his stubs.
- Sometimes if you break your leg or feet while still on the segway it causes hard jumping and moving.
- It is possible to increase the speed of Segway Guy by interchanging between holding left and right in one-second intervals.
- It is unknown if his helmet actually helps to protect his head from damage in any way.
- The segway makes no noise when it breaks.
- If your legs are not on the segway, it is harder to go backwards.
- He is quite resistant to landmines, as riding onto one can make him fly up (although his legs may break sometimes).
- Segway Guy is forced in the most amount of Featured Levels in the game (27).
Glitches
Edit
- When the Segway is destroyed, some users have noticed that there only seems to be one wheel that appears. Other users have said that the wheels must be connected by an axle and it would be quite foolish to ride a one-wheeled Segway. There is no known information proving how many wheels the Segway has.
- Jets and Arrow guns can go straight through Segway Guy if he is motionless, as well as with Irresponsible Dad and Explorer Guy
- If you go fast and bump into something, his stomach goes through the segway and gets stuck. This will result in his head coming off, or him returning to his normal stance.
- If you make his NPC transparent in the level editor and zoom in close enough, you will notice that the inside of his torso is Wheelchair Guy's.
- Sometimes if you break your leg or feet while still on the segway it causes hard jumping and moving.
- If you restart a level in a few times after death, Segway Guy's helmet may become invisible. But if you hit the floor with your head with enough force, the helmet will appear and fall off his head.
- In the Demo Version of Happy Wheels, Segway Guy doesn't have a pelvis, same goes with Irresponsible Dad. The NPCs do.
- When you eject from your segway and reattach back on to it, if you get your feet back on the vehicle, your feet will break off, cause slow movement until the feet are removed.
- His head can easily come off when basically anything swiftly hits it.
