A Canadian man has not only invented a homemade hoverboard, but has also set a new Guinness World Record for the farthest flight on the machine.
Catalin Alexandre Duru, an engineer, rode his hoverboard, which looked like a drone, for a distance of 905 feet and two inches on Lake Ouareau, Quebec, which was more than five times longer than the previous record, reports The Verge.
The machine lifted him to about 15 feet above the lake's surface.
Duru said he undertook the challenge "to showcase that a stable flight can be achieved on a hoverboard and a human could stand and control with their feet.
