Okay, we’ll admit it: this post is really just an excuse to bring you a collection of what might be some of the best funny animal videos you might ever see.
Because you haven’t really lived until you’ve seen an entire collation of various animals jumping on trampolines. Because animals + trampolines = best combination since salted caramel and white chocolate.
Just as an FYI, this post is sponsored by Springfree. But all opinions expressed by the author are 100% authentic and written in their own words.
We know you probably don’t have a lot of spare time. But all of these videos are pretty short, and they’re guaranteed to make your day that little bit happier.*
Also, they’re excellent inspiration for that old trampoline you might have lying around – why not hand it over to your pets and save the new, safer one for the kiddies?
So. Here we go. Enjoy these funny animal videos:
1. Baby goat
What’s better than a baby goat? A baby goat having the times of its life on a trampoline. Uh-huh.
2. Pig
You must meet Peaches the pig. She’s gorgeous. Admittedly, she does only really jump on the trampoline in order to get a cookie, but she still seems to adore it. AND she twirls on command.
3. Buffalo

We had a trampoline growing up (family of 6) and it ROCKED!
We'd sleep out on it in summer and pile blankets on it in winter.
We'd put it against the shed and us kids would run up it.
We'd play on there for hours and hours.. all well into our teens!
We even put dishwashing detergent on it and a sprinkler under it and make it a super sudsy slippery surface.. we'd fall over and try and get up.. try and jump etc.
We'd play 'Genie' and a whole range of other games.
We'd flip, do different dares, and even incorporate the trampoline into our basketball games..
The best parts of my childhood were on a trampoline!
We learnt balance, how to not stand too close to the springs (stitches in my lip!), how to include everyone, we learnt about weights, and how what goes up must come down haha.. out of all of us we only had one broken arm and that was from a couple of 'extreme friends' that joined in one day. Other than that.. brilliant fun!!!!
How do you play 'Genie'? I could do the Genie move on the monkey bars, but don't remember a game of the same name.
The way we played Genie was you had to scrunch yourself up into a ball, holding your knees and someone else had to jump around you and try to make you pop like a Genie out of a bottle (aka let go of your knees and become straight again)
BUT J, feel free to offer your own version!
