In summary, the conversation discusses the HUVR tech hover board video being a hoax and how people can easily be fooled by fake content if it's presented realistically. It also mentions the option to embed YouTube links directly into forum posts.

I have a bridge in Brooklyn that I'm interested in selling to you. Interested?

You should be able to tell something like that is fake just by looking at the way people on it are moving. It's really hard to get the physics exact, so it ends up looking somewhat funky. Even if such a thing doesn't really exist, you should have some idea of how the motion would look if someone were on a floating skateboard.
But I'm always surprised at how fake something will look, and there will still be people who believe it. Apparently it's all in the set up. It doesn't matter how fake something looks, if the delivery of it is realistic, there will be people who believe it.

@delete: You can embed those youtube links directly into your posts. Click on the TV icon (this: https://www.physicsforums.com/Nexus/editor/television.png ) to create a [ YOUTUBE ][ /YOUTUBE] pair of tags (or just type that manually, but without the spaces). Then type or paste the youtube ID between the close square bracket and open square bracket.

The video to which you linked has an ID of gMaDhkNJA2g.

I edited your post to have that youtube link embedded.

For the record, I have no idea why my post has the same video posted twice.
 

FAQ: Someone created hover board , true or false?

1. Is it true that someone has created a hover board?

As a scientist, I cannot definitively say whether someone has created a hover board or not. There have been many claims and demonstrations of hover boards, but none have been able to achieve true levitation without the use of wheels or other mechanisms.

2. How do hover boards work?

Currently, most hover boards use a combination of wheels, magnets, and sensors to create the illusion of hovering. They are not true hover boards in the sense of levitating off the ground without any external support.

3. Are hover boards safe to use?

There have been safety concerns raised about hover boards, especially with reports of fires caused by faulty batteries. It is important to research and purchase hover boards from reputable brands and to always follow the manufacturer's instructions for safe use.

4. Can hover boards be used for transportation?

As of now, hover boards are not a reliable form of transportation as they are limited in their functionality and are not able to levitate or hover for long periods of time. They are primarily used for recreational purposes.

5. Will we ever have true hover boards like the ones in movies?

As technology continues to advance, it is possible that we may one day have true hover boards that can levitate and be used for transportation. However, it may still be a long time before this technology becomes a reality.
