This is a classic. In Bajau people longhouses they have these trampolines built in the middle of the longhouse. They have competitions to see who can touch something hanging above the middle. I think there were teams and three men might bounce a fourth member up there. It's not quite like our trampolines- you don't actually want to be jumping before you leap. At another village I did it- and three teenagers stood on one side pumping the 'tramp' up and down with their legs. I had to pick the moment to leap as the tramp was coming up.
