Okay, time for me to rant again on hoverboards and why we don’t have them even though it is after 2015. I would say that I am disappointed that Back to the Future II lied to us, but doesn’t every fictional film do that? Heck, some documentaries lie to us.
Anyway, Franky Zapata, who invented a water-jet flyboard, a device that uses spraying water to keep the user in the air, has invented a jet turbine version of this Flyboard. So it uses air to keep the user in the air.
There is a video of it that you can see here, and some people doubted the legitimacy of it, but it is apparently the real deal. Apparently, this thing can reach 93 mph and fly to 10,000 feet. Yeah, don’t ask me if they tested it at that height.
So, instead of the flying car, are we going to have this flying skateboard? If so, I’m not kids should be driving or flying these.
Still, if these things do come out to the general population, and they are affordable, what keeps the sky from being full of them? Yeah, parking would be a cinch, right?
