Hello humans! We've come up with a fun concept. Put olympic trampolines on a bridge. Let ninjas do stunts off them. Simple right? Well, the permitting process was not so simple, nor cheap. We're making a film about it and would love some support! Have a look and let me know your thoughts!

Why a bridge? Why not just build a pool? Its safer, easier to get out, you can control temperature, the list goes on. This setup looks pretty sketchy and I don't think many people will invest, if you had a private pool i think youd get a lot more business.

Scratch that, I didn't read the text and I thought you were making a place for people to go jump off trampolines into water, not filming a documentary.

There's a video of I think Jon McMurray doing this on a bridge a while ago.

That bridge setup looks way less sketchy than the trampoline-sorta-tied-to-a-tree-off-a-cliff setup in that Leigh Powis edit a few years ago.

why do you need 6000 dollars to do this, when there are tons of videos of this on youtube already

Well.... look at the video VinneF posted. That's mine. That video inspired the later Leigh/Austin Whistler edit. I know, I asked Austin. I've since put out other tramp bridge edits.

What we are now proposing involves multiple trampolines, athletes from numerous sports, scaffolding stage jibs, and other creative surprises. We eventually would like to do proper competitive events but intend to film this documentary properly to promote the concept. And then you can see innovative stunt contests. We have further big dreams and ideas.


That's why.

Not impressed, if people can triple just on a tramp, they should be able to do at least a quintuple on that setup
