Pickup Truck Trampoline is another optional extra for all
pickup trucks. It's a simple piece of apparatus that easily
converts the flat bed area of the truck into a mobile
trampoline.
Supplemented by a set of handrails on the roof of the
cab (so that it doubles up as a jumping-off platform)
and a fold away easy access ladder, the trampoline user
is
protected from being flung into traffic by the
surrounding
side walls which are composed of a protective springy
mesh.
This means the trampoline can be used as the pickup
truck
negotiates slow or even high speed journeys.
Adventurous users can travel alongside other pick up
trucks equipped with
tampolines to enable the user to bounce from one to the
other. (this is not recommended for health and safety
considerations)
Delux version features spectacular synchronised lighting
for night use.

Alternatively, combine well-sprung expanses of polypropylene
with a system of ramps and berms, so that the drivers of
unsuitably modified pickup trucks can attempt bouncy
manoeuvres in three dimensions. My hunch is that, if you
started with a monster truck, you might be able to make the
suspension kick. Seatbelts advisable. |

See idea "Hip-Hop- Cable- Skipping-Low-Rider" I
posted it a while back. |

This idea has great potential to cause serious injury and death; it may even pose a substantial hazard to onlookers who may be struck by misdirected trampolinists. |

I love this. I love this so much I could jump for joy...oh
NOOOoooooo, Splat, that was me hitting the highway. Oh well,
it sure was fun getting squished by a semi and dying. See ya
on the other side, she said. |
