During the 1990s there were rumors, fuelled by director Robert Zemeckis,[1] that hoverboards were in fact real, but not marketed because they were deemed too dangerous by parents' groups. These rumors have been conclusively debunked.[1] Some companies hoping to leverage the commercial success of the movies have marketed hovercraft vehicles as hoverboards, but these products have not been shown to replicate the experience depicted in the movies. Subsequent to the movies the hoverboard concept has been reused by many authors in various forms of media in fictional universes not directly related to

In March of 2014 a Funny or Die YouTube video featured Hoverboards with famous celebrities Tony Hawk and Christopher Lloyd. They were involved with the Hoverboard hoax video by a fake company Huvrtech. Later on both Tony and Christopher apologized for the hoax and decided to give away a free hoverboard prop.

As of 2014 no, because no one has been able to build a real working hoverboard featured in Science Fiction movies and TV shows, it is very unlikely that we'll get a cheap affordable hoverboard in the market by the year 2015.
