Commercially Available Hoverbike Coming in 2017
When I die, I want the tale of my death to sound something like this: “Oh, didn’t you hear? Adam died. He was crushed by his 800 lb hoverbike. He broke every bone in his body, but I heard the coroner say he still had a childlike grin on his face,” to which the other person would reply, saying “Oh yeah? I heard he stopped by Taco Bell first, because they had to use the Jaws of Life to pry the caramel apple empanada from his cold, dead hand.”
If there’s a better way to go out than that, I’m not creative enough to come up with it.
California-based Aerofex is bringing me one step closer to my dream with the Aero-X hoverbike, which they plan to have commercially available in 2017. The price tag will be a hefty one — $85,000 — but that’s paltry when you think of its application. I mean, can you really put a price tag on gliding into a Taco Bell drive-through on a hoverbike?
The answer is no, you can’t.
As for what this beautiful piece of technology is capable of, the Aero-X can carry two people, reach speeds of up to 42 mph (okay, not bad), and it’s hovering height can take you ten feet closer to the sun.
If you have cash to spare, they’re currently accepting refundable $5,000 deposits on their website.
Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.
The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.
Visit the site to join the mysterious creatures that lurk in the Irish forest as you observe a shelter. From the time the sun sets at 7:30 PM until it rises at 5:55 AM, four strangers — played by Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell, Oliver Finnegan, and Olwen Fouere — can be seen trapped inside.
You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.
There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…
The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
