Filipino priest suspended after using hoverboard during Mass

The Diocese of San Pablo, Laguna has punished an unidentified priest for using a hoverboard during Christmas Eve mass. A video that has been shared widely online shows the priest gliding down a church aisle in a rather, um, holy manner? He rode the hoverboard while performing a Christmas song to top off the stunt.

The righteous hoverboarding was a major no-no in the eyes of the Diocese, according to a statement.

“It is the Church’s highest form of worship," they said. "Consequently, it is not a personal celebration where one can capriciously introduce something to get the attention of the people.”
