Hoverboards are all the rage these days. The personal transportation devices, despite some models being collared for their potential to explode and set themselves on fire, are still seeing high demand, especially as there are some legitimate and totally safe brands and models that people can use.
Zipping around on hoverboards is cool, and for those who got one for Christmas, your excitement is understandable. However, for some, moving around on a hoverboard is not as easy as it looks, and those who are too eager to get on the devices could find themselves falling flat on their face.
Here are some of the most hilarious hoverboard falls that we can find online.

As we outlined in our three-step checklist for hoverboards, in addition to buying legitimate hoverboards and charging the devices carefully, people should ride safe. While falling off hoverboards can be hilarious, these devices can go as fast as 10 miles per hour, which would require the rider to wear a helmet. Knee pads and elbow pads could also be needed if the rider is still learning how to use hoverboards.
But still, yeah. Seeing people fall off hoverboards can be pretty funny.
