"Bouncy house" blows away, injures two

[rashore]

SOUTH GLENS FALLS – Two young boys were injured after a “bouncy house” was swept away by a gust of wind Monday afternoon.

Three children were inside the play structure when the wind lifted the inflatable toy 50 feet into the air.

Geez, how awful! Guess sometimes there is not anchoring the bouncy house enough.

It's a good thing no one got killed. 50 feet in the air is a long way up!

Before I looked at the link, I assumed that it was a professional size bouncy house and was amazed because I remember when I was little my brother had one for his birthday and there were all kinds of anchors on that sucker. Perhaps whoever makes Little Tykes brand toys will provide anchors on all personal size bouncy houses.
