   Not sure if I should believe my eyes or not? I’d like to try that myself.

   Thanks,

   JK

   how did you make the board

   @matthew - The video explains it all!

   how were you able to determined N and S poles? and how long did it take for it to start hovering?

   That is cool, I’m going to make one!!! I wonder if you can do that to a real skateboard?

   what do mean by n and s magnets

   Not real

    Is this possible or not?! I tried with some magnets I had lying around the house, don’t know if they were neodymium but got no levitation out of it. Please I would like to know if this is fake or not.

    This is not real. It is possible to levitate magnets with other magnets, see the Levitron top. The reason the Levitron works is because the top is a magnet and spinning it provides stability. There is nothing here to provide stability and the antenna would do absolutely nothing.

    For those who are wondering how to get the neodymium magnets. Neodymium magnets are the type of magnets that are contained in a computer’s hard drive. So, these are easy to obtain.

    I’m only 14, yet I do have a semi-thorough understanding of basic quantum mechanics

    If I am correct, this setup should create a transverse electromagnetic wave whose oscillations are perpendicular to the direction of propagation (energy transfer). These waves should be strong enough repel against the opposing changes of the magnetic fields of both the north and south facing neodymium magnets in order to provide lift for the board and keep it stable. Therefore, I can deem this theoretically possible and I will make an attempt to duplicate it. The only thing I’m wondering about is how the board stays airborne after the “Launchpad” is removed… Maybe something related to ratio of the wavelength to the size of the diffracting object? kinematic theory of diffraction?

    Master DC. Amazing!
    How about that teleport video that comes up after yours., Fake?

    were do you get the loop antena and where do you get those side stickers

    This is amazing! But i have a few questions. How much weight does this support? And is it possible to reproduce this on a larger scale?

    fake. how can this be possible

    Is it thrut Everything here? or it is videotriki???Who unswer ?

    it is real.
    to Know which is n and s you think.
    n atracts to s but not n
    s atracts to n but not s.
    it dose not mater if n and s are in difrent spots.
    this works because n repels n away from it.

    What is the board made of?

22. Chris Says:

    Can you produce a list of things needed to create? Are all the magnets the same size, and how wide and thick are they? A list really is needed, thanks Chris

    Has sombody tried? I just really want to now if this works

24. Alex Says:

    Can humans stand on it if it was large enough? Can you push it around or does it have to stay in the same place?

    The idea seems plausible. Electromagnetics makes it so. Electricity and magnetic forces interact perpendicularly to each other, hence the launch pad. However I’d like dc to explain why the hoverboard remained after the launchpad was removed. Please and thank you

    hi i asked a magnet maker to make me two 6/1/4 ” x 20mm magnets as two big magnets that i could have continually ionized, to have electromagnetic anti gravity, the engineer said it wouldnt work, they’re all in on this not to be used by anyone but the military. anyway it would work on a larger scale with a self contained battery pack as an attached launpad style power supply - batteries, magnets copper, power switch, launch gear, there is a guy that made one and exhibited it france, he didnt show it moving along above ground but displayed up on a platform.

    I find this hard to believe, I can see no evidence of wires but I would like to know what is hidden under under the charcoal black material. It wouldn’t happen to be a block of copper sitting in a bath of liquid nitrogen would it. I’m not saying this is impossible, because I believe anything is possible given the right conditions doing is believing video’s frequently lie!

    Excuse me, but what are the sizes (measurements, specifications) of the magnets? Thanks in forward.

    It can´t work after strings and magnets are removed unless there are something under the table
