Back to the Future hoverboard is real
« on: March 05, 2014, 02:41:38 PM »
Just what the title says. A buddy of mine shared this on Facebook. Quite a feat of technology. Though not perfect, it's still pretty unbelievable.

I am skeptical. Too many cameos. I would say more likely to have a new back to the future movie, than one of these boards releasing. Some weird promo deal.

Google results indicate it is not real, but I have not been able to find out why someone would create a site and hype it for no gain.

Pretty well done. But fake. No way this could ever work in real life. Sorry, you would have fallen back or forward in a heartbeat. What is keeping them steady? Wash...

That was a well done prank.  I give them props for that.

This. ^^ .... Oy. Just when I thought something really cool had been invented. Lesson learned about believing things without seeing them in person/having more than a video as proof that this is real.

Have y'all seen this?

I've seen the backpack version but not the board.  Could be fun.
