      I can't believe it! the video looks fake. What are the chances that someone who was shot up 3+ feet in the air would remain stable enough not to fall off the first time they took off? Not to mention that waving your foot in the air to get more speed wouldn't work either.

        @Dashrender I think people had the same thoughts about the segway too. Its all in gyroscopes. Also, I wonder when Mattel is going to pick this up? It's only right for them to market it 🙂

          @Bill-Kindle aww.. hadn't thought of the gyros so it would understand you want to go forward.. OK.. maybe... but still, not falling off when being shot 3+ feet? Definitely going to have to see it to believe it.

              @scottalanmiller A couple of them looked like they were being held by a cable or something - I'm skeptic...

                      I wonder what the price point will be.

                      Pretty sure it's fake 😉

                        I only watched a minute of the video but it definitely is. There is not enough capacity for the necessary batteries and levitation devices and nothing is used to stabilize it. And when you see it in action it is definitely not real - all other things aside, it's so dangerous that it can't be real.

                            If you read their legalese they threaten action for any libel too. I guess if you are going to troll, troll hard and make threats while doing so.
