That is, I was waiting for my dentist appointment, and Hawking and his team were on the next module of the building by the side, on the office across from mine, prepping a lecture he would present the next day at my city.
My friend went to Cambridge when Hawking was there.
He tells a story about walking behind his wheelchair on the towpath next to the river Cam. Hawking would pretend to veer into the water then turn back, then veer towards then turn away multiple times.
Pissed him off because he felt he had to watch him safely to his college and he didn’t want to have to jump in the river if Stephens dangerous driving went wrong.
Gotta be fair. If I had to be an obligate wheelie and had to regularly find exotic and exquisite ways for matter, energy and the universe to kill each other and themselves, then I’d have my fun when I can and make it the universe’s problem, too.
I once was in the office next to Stephen Hawking.

Seems likely. He was notoriously an absolute terror on the pavements around Cambridge in general
