A founding member of ELO has been killed in a freak accident when a giant hay bale rolled out of a field and landed on his van.

Cellist Mike Edwards died instantly when the 50-stone cylindrical bale careered down a slope, flipped 15ft over a hedge and smashed on to the roof of his van.

I wonder what Buddist karma speaks to that kind of death? Hope he didn't suffer.

For the bale to jump a 15' hedge it had to be screaming down that hill but fast!
