Alongside [[SpringySpores mushrooms]], [[BouncyBubbles bubbles]], [[GelatinousTrampoline gelatin molds]], and [[TrampolineTummy fat people's stomachs]], another common item that can be used as a trampoline is a cobweb. It depends on whether or not there will be a [[SpidersAreScary spider]] inhabiting it, just as long as the cobweb is facing upward or slightly tilted to the side, but not too much.

In fiction, spider webs make excellent trampolines, though in RealLife, this is obviously not the case (anything light enough to not outright tear through the net will just get stuck to it). You can expect this to show up a lot in {{Platform Game}}s, especially in TheLostWoods and BigBoosHaunt settings. If used as an obstacle that bounces the player back, [[YouHaveToBurnTheWeb they may have to burn the web]] in order to proceed.

See also BuildingSwing, which may also involve the use of web threads for aerial locomotion. Compare AllWebbedUp and ProjectileWebbing for other common and useful web-based applications. SubTrope of ArtisticLicenseArachnids.
