TL;DR Summary

The family of a New York man has filed a lawsuit against Peloton, claiming that the man was killed by his Peloton bike when it spun around and hit his neck and face, severing his carotid artery. Peloton argues that the man's own negligence caused his death and denies any liability. This is the first known fatality linked to Peloton's exercise bike, although the company has faced previous recalls and a child death related to its treadmill. The lawsuit seeks unspecified damages, while Peloton's response states that it is not legally responsible for the incident.
