Yes. Back to the Future: Sclog reports that a Hoverboard, ridden by Canadian inventor of Romanian descent Catalin Alexandru Duru, has broken the Guinness World Records record and delivers realistic performance targets!
Seriously, it looks like this is the equivalent of the Wright Brothers flight!
From the Guinness article:
Catalin reaches a height of 5 metres on his prototype hoverboard covering a distance of over twice that of two full sized football pitches before gently landing in the exquisite waters of Lake Ouareau in Quebec, Canada. He claims that the machine, which he built and designed over the course of 12 months, can be used anywhere and can reach 'scary heights' which he would like to potentially explore in the near future.

Flying terrorists, illegals flying over the border, drug smuggling, flying DC sniper/columbine/sandyhook, oppressive flying police force, etc. Someone is going to start "predicting" all sorts of negative nonsense sooner or later.
Looks cool though.
