Watch This Ingenious Marty McFly Hoverboard Costume in Action
Here’s a simple yet totally genius costume of Back to the Future's Marty McFly on a hoverboard that was created by Geekologie reader Ryan Leer. He did a really amazing job with the fake legs, but as GeekTyrant editor Free Reyes pointed out, wearing gold toed socks definitely doesn’t help the illusion. If only there were some machine that would allow him to go back in time and buy solid black socks. If only! Also, while we're nitpicking little details on this awesome costume we all wish we thought of, I don't believe Marty wears that outfit from the first movie when riding the hoverboard in the sequels. Let's not even get into why there is a dart board on the floor. (I feel like I'm writing for a CinemaSins video now. I'm going to take a shower and try to scrub off the hate.)
It may not be an actual hoverboard, but it’s definitely much cheaper than riding a real magnetic hoverboard or arranging an elaborate, albeit obvious, hoax with celebrities.
