What is amusing to me is that the weight of the person is not a factor about how far he can jump. There are two exceptions I can think of :
1: The springs are stretched beyond their yield point. Which they clearly are not here as the device bounces back normally.
2: There can be some stop implemented on the jump device that doesn't let springss length go beyond a critical limit. (possible)
So it looks to me that its all about the technics of the jumper and not the weight.
All that being said I don't understand why this seems funny to people when a fat guy fails at it while this has NOTHING to do with weight?

Wow you are truly bad at physics and logic, or are a really subtle troll, I'll hope for the latter although I'm certain it's the former.
If you have a machine, in this case some muscles stretching tendons, that can only produce a specific, limited amount of power
to move this machine vertically from the ground - what happens when you add weight to the machine?
A) It moves further away from the ground in a single movement
B) It moves a shorter distance or completely stops moving from the ground in a single movement
C) None of the above
