According to the dictionary..a sport is an athletic activity requiring skill...it is also of a competitive nature. How is trampolining not that?
-
this is totally a sport and is not easy!

@dollygrip52 fuck you because gymnastics and trampolining takes more courage determination than any other of those sports you just said. Why come to a trampoline video and comment that its no a sport? have a nice day you bastard.
-
@dollygrip52 you can say that gymnastics isn't a sport- sure, it's not what we're used to. But really, it truly is. Gymnasts still put in the same number of hours as a soccer player, or baseballer. usually more. They push themselves as hard as anyone else. They still have a coach too. They have Olympics, media and the full deal. So, just because the winner is determined in a different way does not mean it isn't a sport. Sport is a diverse term, and gymnasts and trampolinists are still athletes.

could anyone else hear the james bond theme tune at around 1:02 ?

@trampoline16 Sorry it's not a sport. If someone else judges you, it's not a sport. The athlete must determine their own outcome (ex. soccer, football, baseball, etc...) Not to say that this isn't incredible, I certainly couldn't do it. BTW this is what else is not a sport....(hunting, fishing ,gymnastic's, cheer-leading, etc....)

this is almost as good as it gets, and im surprised at that. It honestly doesn't look to me like a lifetime of trampolining :S especially considering the height he got, making it easier to execute a trick in time.
-
@Paintballer716 yeah right, i bet yo culd not even do the first trick!
-
I'm watching this and first I'm like "this isn't really impressive, I could do the same thing easily (I'm a beginner trampolinist)." Then it hits te second half of the video and I'm like "Holy S***!!!"
id like to see anybody who says trampolining shouldnt be an olympic sport get up their and do what he just did with the same form and same height and difficulty and i bet you and amount of money that you could NOT do that in a million years! so screw you and get a life!
