In fiction, spider webs make excellent trampolines, though in RealLife, this is not the case (anything light enought to not outright tear through the net will just get stuck to it). You can expect this to show up a lot in video gamesas a common feature in TheLostWoods or the BigBoosHaunt.

Alongside [[SpringySpores mushrooms]], [[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. You can expect this to show up in media, particularly Video Games.
