Back To The Future Gave Us Hoverboard Envy
In Back to the Future II, we saw technology that was way ahead of its time. The movie directors came up with brilliant ideas that soon became billion-dollar ideas. Even though there were numerous tech devices in this movie, there was one in particular that stood out to inventors and viewers alike. You were probably one of many who gawked in awe at the hoverboards, as the 1985 film showed riders hovering around their city like they were floating in the air. Even though Segways don’t hover above the ground, they certainly come close. They’re self-balancing devices that are worth $3.34 billion and come as close as you can get to Marty’s hoverboard. We don’t have to warn you not to try and grab onto a car and escape from your worst enemies but don’t try that at home (Luxurist)
