A 26-year-old Chinese inventor (Amazing Ayu on Douyin), who left school at 14, built a working Green Goblin-style hoverboard. His jet-engine first version caught fire; AI analysis of the crash data told him to go electric. Version two uses 10 electric motors with enough thrust to lift four adults, with an AI in his earbuds calling out balance fixes mid-flight. After 10 days of practice he flew it across the Yangtze River.
