The Gadget Show: Making a Hoverboard Part 1

[Deathzilla7]

That is awesome!

[scaryclouns]

Can I get the prints for this?

[SuperGuitarhero5]

This no  longer works it's patched.

[ChaoBreeder13]

@SuperGuitarhero5 Lol'd.. Nice random.

[MacMaster144]

THEY SHOULD OF MADE THAT ON MYTHBUSTERS!

[mikmaqsniper117]

Damm going on the streets posing will be fun

[BlowItUpYourFarkHole]

Ali g had this idea first

[samihaddad100]

EPIC!!!!



[TheMultiIllusionist]

im using this for science fair



[CameraDavidEvans]

Why do they make such an effort? Germany has got a hoverboard already. And that looks like way more fun!!!

/watch?v=TkyLnWm1iCs

[JerkyGerky]

3:00 for the good bit.

[Mrfishybobboo]

Anazing

[keepthefaith90]

@Mrfishybobboo anus

[alemano7777]

it dosent even float

[Rickonminecraft]

How many holes and where? Please answer ASAP thanks :)

[MrWhatabouthim]

That is babeish!!:)

[hal0wars9]

dose he put a screen on the end cause im making this for school and i know i can do it

[enic1423]

Type this in and watch.It's so funny.

Here's a little show we like to call: X & C!!!!!!!

[Supersonicboom1996]

does it hover?

[robloxian5897]

@Supersonicboom1996 yes but small mms of the ground

[NotaN3WB]

I made this

[Jayveloria]

LMFAOOOOOO!! 3:20 I think he bboys cause he actually kicked right for a back spin

[MrFireMotif]

@theicecreamhero24 Its a HOVER board; not a plane.

[TheIcecreamhero24]

You need the Marty shoes

[TheIcecreamhero24]

Don't fly

[xXninjafire621Xx]

at 2:23 tape fart srry

[DarkMatter248]

@xXninjafire621Xx Lol that was random

[xXninjafire621Xx]

at 2:22 tape fart

[watcherdude1324]

EPIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i want one of these

[naveslaikss]

Lol the white dude looks like handsome squidward XD

[94grapevine94]

And how must you send?

[CrazyTuber92]

3:19 he played that fall off pretty well

[chris03661]

I was expecting it to float or fly

[KevinC1012]

LIKE A DONUT

[mrsimomoks]

Cool..

[Ap1ck]

Now all he needs is the Marty Mcfly shoes.

[slimdreadlock]

did you try two lawn mowers

[d3izy]

isn't it supposed to be on the air?

[mr04charley]

£100 is a lot for a leaf blower

[ThinkStage]

Very cool

To see more innovative videos like this or want to share your own ideas visit ThinkStageDOTcom

[SakuraCourageSolo]

So it hovers on a basketball court floor, but that's very smooth and refined. Would it run on say a street? I mean, obviously its not going to run on rough, rocky terrain or anything of that nature, just asking, will this like, hover on very basic terrain like a paved street or a fairly smooth dirt path?

[hsmadhu]

that idia and station is taken from i dint know that

[ahtartersauce101]

I always thought of putting a bunch of $5 mini-fans on the back that's on a little swiveling device and just turn the device in the direction you want to go and if you want to stop just turn it in the opposite direction. It's like spaceship thrusters.

[EzekielOrTs]

thx dude i totaly dindent break my hand and leg and penies.

[Rose21307]

haha lol if you make more of these you can have hover board races!!

[thehawkeye131]

Wtf at the end was he doing backspins?

[Llastinwar]

funny job

[ba77ar90]

my goodness... he actually did it, i thought it was gna be a fake funny vid !!!

[MHardeman25]

@thegadgetshow

I too thought it was duct tape for the longest time, it's actually called duck tape because of it's water repellant properties. Similar in fashion to how duck feathers repel water.

[bluntmaster67]

@MHardeman25

It is called Duct Tape, Duck Tape is just a brand that used the common mispronunciation.

[MHardeman25]

@bluntmaster67 it was developed by Johnson & Johnson during world war 2 for use in water repellant packing. It was coined duck tape by the military. That was the original name for it so I am sticking to it.

[PowerSynopsis]

@MHardeman25 ORLY?

[bluntmaster67]

Should have used lightweight teflon tape to make it airtight, not clunky duct tape.

[sportsguy831]

what do you use for the skirt?? this is awesome!!

[michaeljacksonftd]

thanks so much i won the science fair using this

[aDdXY0UrXiDeaXGiirL]

i made one for my shoes. wore it to school and they all said, THE FUTURE IS HERE!!!

[dtuck1956]

I love it.I'am going to try it

[krebsde]

@thegadgetshow what are all the marieials you need

[xela10104]

so im trying to figure out where the air hole are placed and how many?

all i have is two on either side of each corner so 8

Can anybody help me out?

[TheSilvernuts]

The measurements are about 2ft by 5ft

[TheRobot452]

@TheSilvernuts or 150cm by 60cm to be exact

[TheSilvernuts]

The about 2ft by 5ft

[gmMoney2217]

the break dancing saved the video.

[captaintaco2345]

But...will it blend?

[TarikProductions]

Did he just start breakdancing towards the end?

[FlAvYuSxXx]

I will follow you almost every day to see what is new in The Gadget Show

It's one of my favorite shows they watch on TV.

[ThisisFakeasfake]

100 quid? or squid?

[smitty1ky]

Is it just me or did the style of this video remind you of top gear?

[jasonjonathanjeng]

Putting it in Times Square does not appeal to thousands of New Yorkers, but rather tourists...silly..

[OntDinRS]

Hover boards don't scape on the ground, fucking moron.

[MegaHootowl]

2:26 thats how big my dick is!

[NMGDL5]

nce



[KaityCookie]

Human Airhockey anyone?

[KaityCookie]

Airhockey anyone?

[givemesomericeman]

nice backspin

[nave50cal]

@hey0its0bread u lean, sora like a segway

[99snyder]

now all u need to do is figure out how to steer with out touching the ground with ur hands :P

[ArtixTiger123]

@99snyder you get a stick of corse

[DevilMaster]

@99snyder He figured it out when he built a jet-powered hoverboard. Youtube took the full video offline, but you can still see the teaser: watch?v=5tUB1f3ICow

[randomintrestsperson]

What is the weight limit? Cuz i weigh about 175

[superyusrie]

This is a crude version of a hover machine. I was expecting something more advanced like one that uses magnetic levitation & propulsion technique perhaps ? ;)

[SextupleDouble]

Flame as hell!

[mboy3515]

i am going to make on from sonic riders

[reevesc1986]

That's not hovering at all!

[HoverboardFan14]

@reevesc1986 look closely it IS

[thetrooper42]

Bitch still runs on gas, doesn't matter how cool it is if ya can't afford to use it.

[derallanok]

kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk muito bom!GREAT

[brutaka359]

I fund it stupid for this video to be called "part 1" when it's less than 4 minutes long.

[princexico]

if you add the type R sticker it adds more hp!

[Rockinsweetly]

it doesnt float

[bmwnoooti]

pause at 2:08

[vencelcsanyi]

Csá állati a müsorotok csak igy tovább !!!!!!!!

[markvelasco72]

he is awsome..:D



[flukemmvii]

what is that song at the end called?? please someone tell me!!!!

[onurb24]

@flukemmvii The song is called: Get Wickid by Barrie Gledden

[XheroinxchicX]

A real flying board is what we are all waiting for.

[HoverboardFan14]

hoverboards FTW!!!!!!!

[webboist]

This is such a crap tv show boring as hell.

[cal1um2]

That 90 degree bend in the hose is a ridiculous idea as he could just quite simply turn the blower 90 degrees so that the hose points down making a stronger air transmission

[DrAlexJCagleMD]

That 90 degree bend in the hose is wack and inefficient, it's cutting around 60% of air transmission. Use a flexible Accordion hose instead.

[doggypower1]

kids can make this if scientist try to make it it would be cool

[KurosakiVizard0]

Can it be made with a smaller board?

[darrian2001]

mines i gonna have 5 so i can go a little higher

[Jamac007]

yeah... very cool, im gonna build one, hmm need to find a way to steer it................ and maybe i'll add extra power by adding another blower or 2, put something chrome on it, make it bounce up and down, attach an ipod to some 6x9 speakers,add neon lights around the plastic skirt & put some licence plates on them named "AIRIDA" ..............yeyeah!

[DarkBlood125]

@Jamac007 basicly your building a hovership

[coolman444100]

im gonna make one with a motor for thrust, 4 leaf blowers, a bunch of magnets, some batterys, alligator clips, and an mp3 with speakers. oh, and a string for steering

[bluntmaster67]

@coolman444100

So you can...watch your stereo that you can't hear over the leaf blowers hover around? That seems like a worthwhile project.

[coolman444100]

@bluntmaster67 no, the leaf blowers are back ups, the magnets make it go up.

[bluntmaster67]

@coolman444100

Umm, you're obviously missing my point. LoL, if you don't get it, it certainly isn't worth explaining. People on youtube are amazing.

[insanejake11]

@Jamac007 no joke i want to and think i will make that.

[HoverboardFan14]

if you wondering what a quid is in American money its about 70-150 for a blower just to get that straightened out

[HoverboardFan14]

i tried to make one but it was with a CRAPPY blower so it did float but not with my weight, so what i am gonig to do is save money for a powerful blower

[AshLovesToSkate]

Does it blend?

[TheFisherman000]

@AshLovesToSkate only if u believe

[TheMacAppleMac]

@AshLovesToSkate you mean 'bend'

[AshLovesToSkate]

@TheMacAppleMac If I meant bend I would of wrote bend ;D

[LesMuise]

@AshLovesToSkate is this funny?

[jayocular]

i did this in science class in 7th grade and we used it in the gym,it was fun!

[mrspoores]

dude that is sick

[nazx16]

Super Move at 3:19

[bioboy64]

make a smaller one where u can ride like a scate board and then add a fan to the back and make it activated by pressing down on a buton with ure foot, kids would shit them selves playing and racing with somthing like that. but still awsmaziong.

[TheWeskJago]

0:07 - FALSE ADVERTISING! not a hoverboard! you just wanted to lure the audience in! for that, you get thumbs down. this idea is cool though

[jimstermy]

Looks like somebody is trying to be like kipkay

[MakeOurWay]

Wow nice job! Check out my painting of THE LADY IN BLUE! again nice job!

[PsiNess4396]

what happens if you use 2 leaf blowers

[DevilMaster]

@PsiNess4396 You get more lift. Or better, since we're talking about hoverboards, you get more POWAH!

[PsiNess4396]

@DevilMaster ... (watches bttf 2) i dont get it

[DevilMaster]

@PsiNess4396 Hey McFly, you bojo, those boards don't work on water! Unless you've got POWAH!

[PsiNess4396]

@DevilMaster huh? (watches BACK TO THE FUTURE 2) ohhhh now i get it

[Wapalize]

lol, backspin at the end

[Moratorium]

That spin at the end is nice.

[XxTigrexxX]

This makes me wanna be a nerd

[Urahara1001]

@TheAlbinoBeavers Card board isn't going to be as durable. You need wood for its rigidity. Though you might be able to get card board to work if you coat it in something harder, like plexiglass and resin.

[TheLiteYear]

ima make this shit

[onurb24]

What is the name of the song that starts at 3:00?

[gangstaumpalumpa]

mass production any one????

[gangstaumpalumpa]

dear santa...

[mooncristalpower]

This guy is what we need in our everyday lives, 24/7. <33333

[JamesBryce15]

@Morfpro yo mcfly you bojo hoverboards dont work over water unless you got power hahaha

[Phunkedub]

I wish my science teacher could break dance!

[dannydidge]

maybe reinforcing the sides and bottom with rubber??? or an intertube? what do you think? or two back engines

[kanabeach97436]

énorme 

[DrSnoozthe1st]

Im subbing

[TheNarutoshippuden12]

lol cool:)

[SpenceanatorTheNinja]

haha i did something like this for my elemantry science fair prodject ah good times

[fr3d420]

until it can go on the sidewalk its not that cool.

[DatDiss]

we dont need anymore rappers, actors, and fame. we need more scientist.

[archangel035]

@DatDiss That would require an actual descent public school system here in the States.-lol

[mil7osokar]

I wish I had the time and tools to do this :/

[mil7osokar]

I want him to be my grandpa :D

[FaIlHiGH]

Hey, could you put a list of supplies and specifically where you put the holes at. I kind of want to build this as a christmas present for a little nephew of mine. I'm sure he would love this.

[swordofisis]

thats pretty cool... how long did that take to fabricate? and would it work over a calm pond of water?

[DevilMaster]

@swordofisis The answer to the second question is in "Making a Hoverboard Part 2".

[goadhamgo]

u should put a chair on top of the motor umm like an empty chair

[cuahutemoc5]

lolz

[FaIlHiGH]

I wouldn't say it is the hoverboard people were expecting, but it is still insanely cool looking and fun to play with. Thumbs for you good sir

[DoctorFreeman97]

why dont you just solder + and - points on 9 volt battery to seperate wires, (about 4 batteries), wire some flip-switches to them, hot-glue some 50lb magnets to the bottom, hotglue the batteries and switches to the top front, and solder 2 extra wires from the switches + point to the magnets and do that on a long sheet of metal? Yeah. I like science lol.

[DevilMaster]

@DoctorFreeman97 If you really liked science, you'd know that what you're proposing would accomplish absolutely nothing. FYI, science is all about experimentation, not taking for granted something you're told that would work.

[TheScorpion615]

i think id rather stick with the back to the future hooverboard it looks much better.

[southparkfan7tee7]

Now while your having all that fun you will completely forget about carbon monoxide! YAY!!!  lol

[Danieltp3]

I just buy my hoverboards

[viromikittycat]

haha a grommit

[banananana621]

Wait I have to build this! Where exactly do the holes go and how big are they. what are the measurements of the board itself?

[banananana621]

No way that's so cool!!!

[bahamudfly]

did he breakdance at the end? xD

[Danny30ize]

how bout this u do the same thing with a thin rounded plank n no tarp u cud use 2 leaf blowers so the board can get way off the ground

[casinomann]

Wtf?

[SuperBlockBuster]

Can it work on rougher services?

[srdiaz]

that is so useless, but at the same time, so f*cking AWESOME!!!

[castromiguel723]

it's better if you use a a car aircon

[killerdodo1234]

@thegadgetshow could i have the one that blows are into it on the front, and have another in the back to push me foward?! please reply, i want to know before i make it.

[MrNosker2K10NsbkSrsk]

mines gonna have like 4,so i could escape zombies during the zombie apocalypse...

[TrackingAirsoft]

@MrNosker2K10NsbkSrsk Then you fall off while the other survives take advantage of you getting eaten. :P cause apparently zombies are attracted to sound. sooo. 4 leaf blowers. eh. You'd be better with a golf cart.

[MrNosker2K10NsbkSrsk]

@TrackingAirsoft ahhahha yea true...forgot about tht...ill get a jetpack...there w go even better..with mini guns and an rocket launcher... :D FUCK YOU ZOMBIES O.o
