How high can an adult jump on a trampoline - while ensuring that they land without hurting themselves?

Question

This is a science question only. Please don't test this on your trampoline to determine the answer. LOL

And respond in feet only- how high, in feet, can an adult jump on a trampoline, while still ensuring that they land without hurting themselves?

What's the "safe" limit?

Answer 1

ok how high depends on how healthy you are. i can do about a 3footer.

there is no safe limit. its what your body tells you isnt safe. really you can jump as high as you want without getting hurt.land flat footed to not get hurt. you wont get hurt as long as you dont jump then go off the trampoline(that isnt really that dangerous) or land on the side of your foot and twist or sprain your ankle.

just have fun with the trampoline

Answer 2

I jump on our Trampoline all the time with my 13 and 14 year olds...the only time i have gotten"hurt is when my 14 year old son jumped right next to me as I was coming down it is called breaking and it is appropriately named as it feels as though your back is breaking)...you're pretty safe I would say!
