Yeah you can bounce yourself while a second person also bounces you at the exact same and so you are double bounced.

Alternatively, you can roll up like an egg while two other people try to bounce you and crack the egg. If two bounces manage to launch you a the same time then that also gets called a double bounce.

Both approaches to being double bounced are absolutely terrifying because you're feeling twice the force that you expected. So if you're an emotionally dead adult nostalgically looking back to the last time you felt something then the terror of being double bounced is a good candidate.

Crack the egg was the best! It sounds like you and I had very similar upbringings. Hopefully your uncles didn't try double bouncing you from a tall balcony as well ๐Ÿ˜„
