You may never have a genie friend or a magic carpet, but at least you can buy a hoverboard.

The teens of today have become obsessed with their Hyperwalks, the latest in trendy youth technology. Viner Mo Khan has found one clever way of incorporating the pseudo-hoverboard into an Aladdin costume: turning the 2-wheeler into his magic carpet. 

You can’t cruise into the skies with the invention, but there’s still a whole new world the be explored on a Hyperwalk—he does everything from trailing behind traffic to moseying into a drive-thru. 

Maybe he’ll find his Jasmine with this ingenious idea.
