What God hath wrought, let no man Photoshop

That "Blob Jump" photo could totally be real. we had a "blob" at a summer camp where I worked for years--it's just a huge inflatable tube, lined up lengthwise underneath a high diving board. One kid jumps off the board onto the blob, crawls out to the far end, puts hands behind head/neck ("safety first!"), and a second kid jumps off the diving board onto the near end. The first kid would get pretty good air when the second kid was about the same size...when a bigger kid, or a counselor, or two grown men at the same time would jump off of the diving board, the smaller kids on the far end would absolutely fly. Hilarious...

Yeah, the blob jump launch is a big thing at church camps. I've no doubt that video is for real.

yes, the "blob" is real. haven't you ever seen Heavyweights? They show a blob in the promo video the dude shows the kid to get him to go to fat camp :)

we also had one at the summer camp i attended.
