So far I haven’t seen anything that disproves this. They said Tony Hawk had a harness on? I didn’t see it, even when I looked at the picture. They also said his jeans where photoshopped, but that’s kinda hard to tell. ---

Found online: "Skeptics also noticed the video features an actor (Nelson Chang) playing the product “engineer,” and all the celebrities who try the hoverboard clearly had harnesses on their shoulders that were digitally removed in post-production. Finally, Gizmodo confirmed the project was a prank created by Funny Or Die. An Internet listing by a stylist and costume designer described the humor video site’s video as a “commercial” filmed in November 2013." ---

OK, I know a few of you are relatively young and such, but think about physics for a moment, only using what you know from the word around you and things you’ve seen, not things you’ve learned in school or by watching television. How could that possibly work? How could a plastic skateboard without wheels possibly float like that? Sure you could do it with mag-lev technology, but the results in the video are just completely unbelievable under any circumstances. I’m all for a sense of wonder and hope, but come on now… Don’t let yourselves be fooled by celebrity, apparent credibility, or anything else along those lines. Videos like this are created as jokes and to showcase what is possible through clever editing. Actually letting yourself believe that things such as this are legitimate, even only long enough to ask people on the internet about it, puts you in a very vulnerable position regardless of how light-hearted the actual event is. ---
