Investigation after 102 incidents at trampoline park
Council health and safety inspectors are investigating a new trampoline park following more than 100 incidents at the Midlothian centre in three weeks.
Ryze in Mayfield Industrial Estate in Dalkeith opened a 10,000 sq ft park on 23 January.
Since then there have been reports of accidents including a broken neck, back and other bones.
Ryze said the accident figure was "better than the industry norm" and there had been seven serious injuries.
Case Lawrence, Ryze chief executive, said it was "very important" to put into context they had had 25,662 jumpers over the three week period and 102 incidents in that time was only a 0.39% incident rate.
However, some parents are now warning people about the dangers at the centre.
(continued, who needs 'elf and safety in today's Britain?)

You have to be fucking stupid to let your kids anywhere near a trampoline.
They need banning.
