Default Flying trampoline halts high-speed train
BERLIN (Reuters) - A German high-speed train was forced to make an emergency stop when a trampoline was blown on to the tracks from a nearby garden, police said on Wednesday.

The Intercity Express (ICE) was travelling from Cologne to Vienna and was forced to stop outside Bonn, Cologne police spokesman Frank Freund said in a statement. "The ICE only came to a halt 300 metres (yards) after the blockage," Freund said. The train sustained damage to its front lights but after checks was allowed to continue.

Wonder why it didn't just jump tracks..(sorry)
