  1. I had one for over 20 years . It never even budged. The brave new safe world is designed to not last.

  2. That reminds me of a vid of two men trying to hold down a trampoline in a severe windstorm by standing on opposite sides. It lifted off and floated away with them.

  3. That's the Alabama state bird.

  4. "Honey, why is the driveway scraped and the roof leaking?"

  5. They open the garage door, see the trampoline and say "how did that get there?".

    1. Inevitably though, they jumped to conclusions...

  6. This was common where we lived in the Phoenix area. The population was always given plenty of notice when high winds were expected. Trampoline owners were usually slow to react.

    1. I lived over in the Tonopah area. People from Buckeye, Surprise, and Goodyear always cruising around looking for their stuff.

  7. 15 years ago a big storm landed a grain silo in my back yard after it destroyed 2 trees and my fence. Hours later the hutterites showed up drove through my fence remains to try and take it back. I called the cops refused to let them take it. They said it was theres and i threatened them with trespassing. Figured if they took it they would claim later no knowledge of the damages and the often have no insurance. While cops were arguing with them the actual owner showed up. It had a logo on the side, hutterites just figured they could steal it.

    Insurance gave squat for the fence damage in the end

  8. Saw almost that personally with mine. It skated across an acre staying upright the whole time. Drove dog leash screws in the ground and wired it down.

    ps That was not assembled by amazon as it stayed together to well, theirs would have exploded into a thousand pieces

  9. I have been a vendor at farmers markets for 15 years. We have 10' x 10' "pop-up" tents for our booths. If we do not have at least 25 - 40-pound weights on each tent leg, very often a gust of wind will take a tent and if nothing more, flip it upside down and break several support arms.

  10. We had a dust devil run right up our property line before veering into the neighbor's yard. It picked up their trampoline and wrapped it around a tree, about twenty feet off the ground. Before doing that, the dust devil had completely dismantled a 100ft-long commercial greenhouse in the nursery behind our property. I had to duck into the barn to avoid flying aluminum beams!
