When bouncy castles attack
TWO women were killed yesterday when a giant “bouncy castle” broke free from its moorings with 30 people inside it.
The huge inflatable – half the size of a football pitch – shot 50 feet into the sky above a busy park and flipped over in mid-air.

Apparently it’s a bit more than your bog-standard bouncy castle: it’s an “art installation” called Dreamscape, and it’s huge: pics here:

Although I think it’s unlikely to have any more people wandering through it.
Bloody artists.

When you look at the pictures above then look at this one (http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/images/41922000/jpg/_41922028_castlepicgallery1.jpg) you get an idea of how they would’ve fallen.
Bloody hell.

People also killed when they driving, swimming, playing. It’s not bouncy castles’ fault.

I take it that you didn’t read the article then since this has absolutely nothing to do with bouncy castles?
