FOUR KIDS broke their legs at an American-themed trampoline park – as its boss faces jail for trying to cover it up.
Philip Booth, 60, failed to tell authorities when a boy and girl, aged three, and two girls, nine and 11, were hurt at Supajump in Cardiff, Wales.
A court heard the youngsters suffered injuries while jumping on trampolines and into foam pits at the park.
Cardiff Magistrates Court heard the young customers were injured between April 2018 and August the following year.
Booth, of St Mellons, Cardiff, pleaded guilty to four counts of failing to report an accident at the park.
He also admitted two counts of failing to ensure people were not exposed to health and safety risks while using play equipment.

District Judge Steve Harmes said: “I’ve assessed this case at the very high culpability, category two harm, because injuries such as this are serious and could’ve been more serious.
“You clearly and blatantly disregarded the law, disregarded the advice you were given by the council, and all these injuries occurred, none of which were reported.
"There was an effort on staff’s part to minimise them by telling people to cross things out on forms that were handed in about what happened.
“For all those reasons, I’m going to commit you for sentencing to the crown court.”
The judge said he would have only had the power to sentence Booth to a maximum of six months behind bars.
Booth will be sentenced at Cardiff Crown Court on April 27.
