So sad.

If they would’ve just stayed in their covid quarantine camps this wouldn’t have happened…

This isn’t the first time people have been hurt in those things. I would have thought that they’d always tie them down just as a precaution.

Based on the endless number of videos of these things blowing around, a lot of people don’t.

Maybe so, but any wind gust strong enough to lift a bouncy castle with 4 kids in it 35ft in the air is probably strong enough to pull out your average push style stakes too

Last year, a strong wind lifted my neighbors trampoline over the fence into my yard. total flight was about 100 feet. It stopped when it hit my house.

Don’t they tie these things down? Unfortunately, only the kangaroos were tied down, sport.

That’s 4 more deaths than Australian Covid deaths in the past week (zero). Yet they setup fascist concentration camps to throw in people even suspected of having Covid.

“On a day where these children were meant to be celebrating their last day at primary school…” the school authorities didn’t make sure the thing was anchored down

They are supposed to be anchored to sand bags or staked into the ground. Appears this one was not.
