And then Tony hawk rides one while obviously hanging from wires.<\/p>\n<p>Huvr is supposedly a team of MIT physics graduates who have miraculously discovered the power of antigravity, and amazing enough, somehow managed to keep all of this a secret from the world until now. The &#8220;company&#8221; even goes so far as to let celebrities like Moby and Billy Zane try them out.<\/p>\n<p>So, what is this all about? We&#8217;re not entirely sure, but someone has spent quite a lot of money to make sure this Huvr prank goes viral. Either way we will have to wait and find out, but the video is at least worth a watch.<\/p>\n<p>Check out the video by<a title=\"visiting their Youtube page\" href=\"http:\/\/youtu.be\/A4vE_vpkr90\"> visting their youtube page<\/a><\/p>\n<p>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"entry-summary\">\nNext year is 2015, and at long last, we&#8217;ll all live in the same year depicted in Back to the&hellip;\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"link-more\"><a href=\"https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/?p=11334\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &ldquo;THE HOVERBOARD HAS ARRIVED!!!
