Not sure if repost, but this would make me want to go to Paris.

Unfortunately it was all hype. Proposed, designed and never built. Fucking Parisians!?!?!?!

It's hard to get hurt bad on a trampoline if you have some sense of air awareness, unless you get a freak accident from double bouncing, landing weird on a future spin, or a broken spring/bed, tramps are pretty safe.

I broke my elbow on one doing a misty 9, something I have on lock, but Ilympic trampolines are a little more dangerous I guess.

Yeah that's true, I've been on one once and they scare me to death. I was referring to trampolines with a more standard bed, those are much safer.

They ran a investigative piece in our area on Jumpstreet and other trampoline facilities in our area. The number and severity of injures that people were getting was pretty unreal. A lot of them are from mid air collisions or landing on other people. One guy dislocated both of his patellas. I'm not sure how these places can afford insurance.

I have a blast at Jumpstreet, but I can definitely see how people can get worked. Age and skill varies so much, that I think it's just a matter of time before someone dies.

That would be an awful bridge and it looks really ugly. It would be fun if it wernt actually supposed to be used as a bridge.

everyone knows water trampolines suck ass and don't bounce at all anyways.

People who have multiple people on at one time should see shit like that coming. The risk heightens exponentially regardless of skill.

this. no matter how good you are at trampolining, anything can happen when more than one is bouncing at a time
