Trampolining was invented in 1934 by American Gymnast George Nisses (1914 - 2010). He Invented it because he went to the circus as a child and saw tightrope walkers landing on a net and rebounding back up. He thought he could use that idea to make a invention for sporting. The word Trampoline comes from the Spanish word Trampolin which means "Divingboard". George Nissen struggled to sell his new invention in the U.S.A so he went over to the UK to Brentwood and created the first Trampoline factory there.
