Trampolines are one of those things that I look back to my childhood and find myself a bit in awe that we used them without any real safety considerations at all. I group the safety barriers you see on them today alongside things like NHL fan safety netting... upon introduction I didn't think they were necessary but in hindsight I can't believe we didn't have them. Once you remove the ability to fall into the springs or off the side, they're probably 100x safer.
