I always wanted a bouncy castle at my birthday parties. My parents never let me have one because they said they were unsafe. Kids would hurt themselves in them. I just thought they didn't want my cousin to accidentally step on me. I didn't know the whole bouncy castle could fly away.

While The accidentThe depiction of this floating bouncy castle is somewhat exaggerated, some bouncy castles have blown up in real life. This clip from Inside Edition captures the moment a bouncy castle was caught in a 65 km/h gust of wind, breaking the safety belt holding the structure to the ground.

This is some really scary footage. Then again, there is a slight difference between what you see in that footage and, well, this…

In any case, take care of yourself. You can The accident on Netflix.
