Big Wave Trampoline is a recipe for summer fun, drownings

big-wave-trampoline.jpgThere are few things more fun than trampolines, as every kid with less-than-responsible parents knows. Sure, there's always a good chance of you launching yourself off the side and breaking your leg/arm, but that's part of the fun! And it's good exercise! Come on mom and dad, pleeaaaase??

Even more fun and definitely more dangerous is the Big Wave Trampoline. Yes, it's a trampoline with water on it, getting you wet while you jump. It'll increase the likelihood of you slipping and falling when you land, which would increase the likelihood of you hitting your head on the edge and being knocked on conscious, which would definitely be a bad thing to happen on a trampoline covered with just enough water to drown in. But come on it looks so fuuuuuuuuun!

on conscious. . . .come now.

Anyway, I used to do something similar as a kid. We would have a sprinkler set up to spary onto the trampoline. Fun times!

Unclench there Dvice Dude!!! I'm with prev post. Any kid that had any kind of childhood already did this and survived. I know, I know, what's next? Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together... mass hysteria!

Damn someone beat me to it. Really though? We don't know the term "unconscious"? Really?
