- A new study by the British Medical Journal found that kids were more than twice as likely to sustain "musculoskeletal and/or orthopedic injuries" using a trampoline at a trampoline park than kids using a trampoline at home. Meg Oliver looks at the risks that come with trampoline parks.

The International Association of Trampoline Parks rejected decades of USA Gymnastics trampoline safety rules, ignored expert advice, drafted their own rules, and then ignore those as well. These places are paralyzing and killing kids. Colorado recently shut down an Urban Air attraction because it keeps breaking kids' bones.
I could’ve told you that without doing a study
My kid goes to trampoline park but I make sure he stays in the age appropriate areas and doesn’t jump with adults, who can off balance a toddler.. no my toddler is not doing backflips he simply jumps like a frog. No flips for sure.. WATCH YOUR KIDS and teach them safety..
I think kids who are hurt is cuz parents just let them run a muck and are not supervised.. I saw an older kid push and bully other kids and stand on top of their bodies but the parent was no where to be found even when I asked him to point out his father - WATCH YOUR KIDS!!!!!
It’s not always the other parents fault. The kid in the story didn’t have parental permission to do a backflip. Peer pressure made him try.
As I sit here in the emergency room with my daughter who was just injured at a trampoline park. Horrible
My son sprained his ankle and then it happened again when we took a month off and he had been doing great. It can happen 😔
It’s such a great idea. It’s sad that it’s not safe.
1:23 She's 33 🤔
We ain't going anyway, not even a birthday party
“A safe, family friendly environment.” Yeah, right. There needs to be more standards regulating trampoline parks
Prior to the pandemic, my daughter had a birthday party at a local indoor trampoline park. She and her friends had a Fun time and there were sections for All age levels. Representatives we're on hand at every aspect. Yes, I had to sign a waiver. Which listed in great detail the risk of participating and playing in the park. Every adult of every child at her party had to read and sign the waiver at least a week and Again the day of the party. The day after the party the company reached out to the parents to make sure everything was ok, and Not just with the party and games. I actually appreciated that. The particular park we went to has specific dates/times for Junior attendants, those ages 4 to 6 years old. Generally you have be over age 6 to play. So NOT all trampoline parks and any other party venues are created equal. Regulations vary from state to state and city to city.
While injuries can happen at even the local playground, it is up to us as parents to be advocates for our children and their safety.
Bs
It is deceitful. Anything to sell tickets.
What an advertisement.
@Lafette: How long have you worked for a trampoline park or the international association of trampoline parks? That was a lot of detail for a single "prior to the pandemic" visit. I am glad to hear all the kids got out safely during your visit. Too bad all children do not. Playgrounds are less dangerous today because of industry regulation. Take a look at the injury rates for trampoline parks in comparison to playgrounds. The problem is right now the industry is regulating itself and writing its own safety rules while ignoring decades of USA Gymnastics safety rules and more.
@@SanAntonioSlimWhile my comment could and probably Implies that I work or have worked for such a company, I however; do not and have not, nor will I ever in the future. I am my own CEO. Thank you very much. My comment was merely to state that Not all trampoline parks and venues are created equal. As an Event Coordinator, I should know. I would regal you with horror stories, but I'll save that for another date and time.
Sadly, this news story FINALLY sent a ripple throughout the Trampoline Court Community. I reached out to IATP as soon as I received their email. As a Trampoline Expert Witness/Technical Writer*/Design Engineer/Machinist/Welder (not a gymnast; who is commonplace for defense experts). I serve on both sides of the courtroom with my opinions. My IATP membership began several years ago. I recently (September 2021) was an attendee at the Internation Association for Trampoline Parks Convention and Expo in Las Vegas, NV; I was shocked at what I heard during training for a Level 1 and 2 Trampoline Court Inspector. Frankly, what I heard about becoming only a defense expert in the future was appalling. I live in Utah, and if you believe your state needs standards, do as I did and contact your representatives; because, in 2019, our state became one of only eight in the United States to adopt the ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials) substandard F2970 for Trampoline Courts. This standard will turn ten (10) years next February and is updated regularly. But, most of the standard defaults to the Manufacturers Guidelines. The standard has received my suggestions as one sent requesting a six-inch tall red line surrounding the foam pit perimeter showing a depth line warning. The Jumper has no way of knowing if most foam pits have no way of showing a low of foam. Currently, the 3-foot depth level has no markers to show too low foam blocks. The CSPC is an excellent option to help slow the accident rates. I have seen waivers in this industry where the defendants immediately file a countersuit to scare the plaintiff away. I utilized the CSPC guidelines when zipline kit accidents started landing on my desk in 2016. Their guidelines are helping my clients because the standards were not in place.
You should come check out the trampoline park I work at 💀It's a couple years old and located in utah and we have welds snapping every week or so. We get them fixed practically immediately but it's still awful. Owners won't bother to completely reweld the park and with the extra dough still won't bother to raise our employees pay 🤣 Happy to report that as both a monitor and an extreme trampolinist we see very little injuries throughout the park though, and mostly on sprained ankles or bloody noses and bruises. Most of the injuries are user error related and just from kids breaking rules when the monitors have turned their heads for a couple seconds. Still blown away at how decrepit the park is though lol.
So you would all rather have people outside selling drugs are hanging in the neighborhood getting into all sorts of trouble then having fun ha ha ha
I like how people are blaming trampoline parks in the classic American fashion as opposed to taking any personal responsibility. I'm not seeing any trampolines rip or malfunction im seeing people hurt themselves and blame the trampolines lol
let me get this straight. an adult broke her leg in something meant for kids. then i bet she asked to see the manager
As a TRAMPOLINE PARK MONITOR. I can say that most injuries come from 1. Kids breaking the rules. 2. Parents not watching young children. 3. Kids attempting tricks that they are not inherently capable of doing. I know that the first one might be kind of odd coming from a monitor, but we cannot watch every second of the park at all given moments, kids will break rules when we aren't looking, which is where the second point comes in, parents, please watch your young kids. Make sure they are not breaking any rules and are staying in their age designated area. We do all also have waivers that make you liable for your own injuries if you do so in attempting a flip. Don't attempt flips unless you can safely attempt them, or do them. And if you're an extreme trampolinist like I am, please try and make sure you are extremely careful and watch where you're going so you don't cave in a toddlers skull. also, wear grip socks, I don't want to see some poor souls back bend in half because they tried a backflip and weren't wearing some sort of grippy socks. My point is, most of the injuries at trampoline parks aren't because parks don't have proper safety rules, (Though I am sure some don't) but they're because the jumper isn't SAFELY USING the trampoline park. So please, know your limits, know your surroundings, and have fun flying jumpers.
How many kids got injured and how did they got those injuries? They are suppose to be fun but not to challenge each other.....
I'm sorry but I just can't help but shake my head in frustration. This report is nothing but biased and misleading. That kid in the red shirt is still in the process of suing the trampoline park and is no longer a quad. He also claims that he has done many flips in his life, so the lawyer is construing the facts and is purposely misleading. Plus that fact that he's showing footage of an on going law suet is unethical.
Plus the whole thing about the linked trampolines sending out waves of energy causing double bouncing is completely false. That's not how energy works and that's not how a double bounce works.
Like saying rock climbing parks is dangerous. No crap
@ Anthony: These places are exponentially more dangerous than rock climbing. The injury rate for kids at these parks is much higher than rock climbing because people know rock climbing is dangerous. Rock climbers train and take the appropriate precautions before attempting a climb. These trampoline parks actively hide the truth of how dangerous they are and lie to parents to entice them and their kids for birthdays and daycare "fun". The parks advertise their affiliation with the International Trampoline Park Association and their ASTM safety standards to make people think they are safe. However, the parks fail to explain to parents how they threw out decades of USA Gymnastics safety standards to draft their own standards to make these trampoline places. Then even though they wrote the freakin' standards they still fail to do proper safety studies before they make an attraction. Why? To make some money. Imagine if a private person killed and paralyzed children for money. We would give them the death penalty. But a trampoline park does it and people defend them.
It's funnnnnnn
Imagine if a private person killed and paralyzed hundreds of children for money. We would give them the death penalty. But a trampoline park does it and people defend them. Warped values.
I dont think it should be ban but something must be done, i also didn’t think this was dangerous. Look i just jumped into the foam pool and landed on the surface HARD AS F*. My air went out i couldn’t breath and the pain in my back never had that before, going to hospital now. These injuries could be for life its not joke
dont go to a trampoline park if you dont know how to trampoline its that simple lol.
Way to stop kids from interacting and having fun
Driving your car is dangerous should we ban them too?
Who’s talking about banning them? They’re talking about regulation, which we do with cars. What’s your point?
@clipclop15 they literally talked of some states banning them so yeah that's relevant.
@Willy. How much safer are cars today than they were back in the day? How many people were needlessly hurt and killed before the car companies made them safer? Cars only got safer after they were forced to make them safer. Car companies knew of disc brakes, seat belts, shatter resistant glass, and much more, long before they were forced to make the changes.
She was doing something dumb, I have been to those trampoline never hurt, if you do something stupid of coarse ur going to get hurt
CBS I love y'all but this is reaching!
