Emergency Room stats

I have mentioned before in this blog that trampoline safety is of increasing concern in the UK as well as other countries around the world but I have just read a stat that is really quite scary. Over 100,000 people each year end up in the emergency room in the USA!

The problem on the other side of the Atlantic is so acute that the majority of home owner policies do not cover you in the case of trampoline injuries. That means you are personally liable should someone have an accident on your trampoline and when you buy a trampoline you MUST take out additional cover to protect you.

Springfree Trampolines are relatively new to the USA and becoming increasingly more popular. It will be really interesting to see how the safest trampoline in the world will change the attitudes of interested parties. It is already happening over here and is well established Down Under.
