Cases like that and laws like described by bumpy ride make me want to gouge my eyes out.
So what are you expected to do with a trampoline? Pack it away everyday?
My prediction is that in the end, the guy will get nothing close to 14 mil, if anything, and rightfuly so. I feel bad for him, but he definitely is in the runing for a darwin award.
What next, a hardbooter suing a mountain for getting hurt on fresh cord? GMAFB....
Sorry if it came out harsh, but this really boils my blood.
