Trampoline invented by Czechs 100 years ago today.

I saw this special on a history channel last night. The Czech people are noted for their engineers, athletes and skilled machinists. It was only natural they create something to unify all these great attributes.

The inventor created a company, which quickly rose to prominence. They did extremely well, growing steadily before abruptly failing due to government over-regulation.

The inventor and company founders were eventually arrested, tried, convicted, and sentenced on massive fraud charges.

Apparently it’s illegal to bounce Czechs.
