Family hopes for best after Alberta teen’s neck injured in trampoline tumble
SHERWOOD PARK, Alta. — An teenager is recovering from surgery after suffering a severe neck injury while attending a friend’s birthday party at an Edmonton-area trampoline park.
Landon Smith was hurt last weekend at Jump Park Trampoline in Sherwood Park, just east of the city.
Jordan Smith, Landon’s brother, says a woman saw his 18-year-old sibling jump into a foam pit and stop moving immediately after his plunge.
The teen was taken to University of Alberta Hospital with an injured neck vertebrae and spinal cord damage.
