This old retired gentleman I know of in Lake Charles made it through the hurricanes and, freeze and flood relatively unscathed. He was a half mile or more from the tornado last fall. fricking trampoline got dropped out the sky right through the roof of his house.
I bet that old dude is anti trampoline now. They don't even on know where the thing came from.

We had a neighbors trampline cross the road in high winds and did about $800 in damage to my garage trim and door. Luckily I didn't have my car sitting out. Would have been a lot worse.


You want worse... I got one for you. A neighbor of my in-laws had a trampoline that got picked up in high wind and dropped into a power company substation.

To say the least, it sparked and boomed a little .

(Substation looked similar to this)

When I built my pool, my agent said, "no diving board or slide".



Im waiting for insurance companies to tell parents their kids can't make bike ramps.

What’s pathetic is how insurance dictates 90% of the shite we do in life.

How do they even know you have one?


That was my first question, she said they randomly do audits and I guess the net on the trampoline showed over the fence

frick a trampoline. Your kids won't use it much and you have to move the thing all over the yard to keep the grass healthy and mow. I made that mistake once.


Sorry you and your kids are so fricking lazy!
