Does anyone know anything about the 3 person Hummingbird Hammock that is on Kickstarter?

Somebody stole the springs off that trampoline.
Trust nobody!
I'd hate to be the person in the middle. Finding four trees must be a challenge.
I can't wait till they come out with their tarp and bugnet for the three-person hammock!
I like the integral bag on their little hammock. nice idea.
.. the four PERFECT trees...
I'm happy when I find two trees.
And ya need a tarp that covers it.??
Look closely at the people in the hammock.... the two on the sides look like they're holding on to keep from rolling in the middle . .

Made with PU coated ripstop...good for tarps...bad for hammocks.
Does it come with a ladder to get the straps high enough on the trees?

I noticed that too...I dont see that large hammock as being practical in anyway. When I first saw this picture I thought that this was all some kind of fake kickstarter but I scrolled down and saw that they were also making small hammocks for sale so it seemed bit more believable. From looking at the photos, none of their hammocks look to be comfortable. At least for me; I like em big but not the 3 person tarp big..
Lots of rain it could double as a swimming pool, fire under it could make it a hot tub.

You guys are looking at this wrong.
It IS a big tarp...LOL!
Just buy two of them, put one 3-4 feet above the other...voila!
When I see these kinds of things thrown out as kickstarters, I wonder who in the heck actually worked through the business and consumer aspects of this before doing so...
This makes ZERO sense to me as a viable product.
It's a sheet with four tie-outs, touted as something new and innovative. No research or design was put into it. No one could have possibly spent more than five minutes thinking about how it would actually be USED by a consumer. How could you camp in it? How could you lounge in it? What keeps the sun off? Rain? Bugs? How do you actually find a location that lets you set it up? What campgrounds/outdoor locations would LET you set it up?
Who is this really aimed at, consumer-wise?
