While shopping for a garden trampoline for my kids this Christmas I came across this rather interesting history of trampolines and trampolining.
I recall seeing silent footage of stage performers using a ‘bouncing bed’ as a prop in their act. Made up to look like a bed the prop was actually a precursor to the modern trampoline.


I’ve just read those history pages – very interesting. I didn’t know that trampolinig was used by the miitary to train pilots. Cool
Walrus skins eh? Thats kind of a shocker, i wouldn’t have thought eskimo’s would have invented trampolines. good find.
