>A funfair worker desperately tried to catch a girl who died after she was thrown higher than a house when the inflatable trampoline she was playing on exploded, an inquest heard.
Ava-May Littleboy was playing on the attraction when it burst on the beach at Gorleston-on-Sea in Norfolk on 1 July 2018. The three-year-old, from Lower Somersham in Suffolk, landed on her face on the sand, the hearing in Norwich was told. She suffered a head injury and died in hospital.
>“She went up so high, it was higher than my house, about 20ft,” said Jones. “There was a massive thud and Ava came down on her face and tummy. I wasn’t close enough to catch her.”
She said that she remembered “screaming ‘catch her’” and a funfair worker “had her arms fully out to try to catch her, but she couldn’t as it was so quick”.
The aunt said the sides of the inflatable trampoline seemed “stiff”, but added: “I didn’t take much notice of it – I thought it needed to be like it and that it needed more pressure. I just assumed it was how it was meant to be.” >“She was just flipping,” she said. “I just remember my little niece flipping. Her eyes were closed and she didn’t scream. I remember looking at her little face and I think the force that sent her up had already done something to her. It was like she was asleep.”
Jones tried to resuscitate Ava-May with the help of others on the beach before paramedics arrived.
The father said in a statement read by the coroner: >“My heart is scattered all over that beach. I will never go back there as long as I live.”
>He literally exploded the trampoline and made it happen
FTFY.

That's what pol is now. 2-5 year old news articles that garner 100 replies and people asking questions that have been answered every day for years. It's a decent less noticeable war of attrition through demoralization to anyone paying attention.
I don't even get how that happens. Those things become compromised all the time and get holes, but there's not enough pressure to cause it to "explode".
The cheap fuck funfair owner must have lost the fucking pump and nigger rigged it with something industrial.
If you spend a whole day training little girls how to throw, by the end of the day, only one in twenty will show the slightest improvement.
Meanwhile, only one in twenty boys needs any training at all to throw with perfect technique.
Girls are physically weak and uncoordinated, which is a really terrible combination. If they were just one or the other, it wouldn't be so bad, but both at the same time and you're just always going to be retarded at anything that requires physical motion.

I think this is the most awful thing I've ever laughed out loud at. Wait, your *house* is shorter than twenty feet?

False, the Trampoline was rigged with explosives
Benjamin Bailey
This is what I'm wondering. These things are like big air mattresses, it's not like you can get 100psi in there.

This doesn't make sense. Less pressure would be better. How the hell did this explode?
Bentley Murphy
Yeah, as I thought. It's not supposed to really trap air at all, but continuously have air filtered through it to keep everything at a constant pressure. Even if you blocked off its exhaust tubes, your stock standard bounce house pump isn't anywhere near the size of those furnace-looking things in the background. It's just going to break before you get anywhere near that amount of pressure.
If you had it hooked up to a semi tire pump or something retarded like that, then cut the exhaust tubes off because you don't know what the fuck you're doing, it'd be a different story.

I have no idea why you think that needs to be pointed out when I quite literally pointed it out myself in the very first sentence I wrote.
Little girls. Little kids. That's what I was talking about, you can tell that's what I was talking about because that's what I fucking said, tardo.
I never mentioned pro sports but now I will: any sport you care to name, the best females are about on par with the average man in the same sport.
You remember Mia Hamm? That's because she was a woman. If she was a man, she wouldn't even make the men's team, she'd be Nobody McNobodyson.
But instead she's a female and not too horrible-looking so she got to be a star and be on the Wheaties box and whatever else.

This might have been close to true 20-30 years ago, but many kids these days are raised by single moms. And outdoor play is discouraged in society. I really doubt anywhere near 95% of kids have significant experience with balls (the good kind)

Please tell me there's footage of her flying to space
Carson Wood
I think she means she doesn't care if it was a kid poking it with a needle or the little girl jumping on it too hard. Most likely because, as you said, it wasn't supposed to be at that pressure in the first place. They're looking into who has what role at the funfair and who made the call to put the thing together like that.
