Are we really supposed to believe that ridiculous looking trampoline is made to catch stuff FALLING FROM SPACE?
This is the Space X "Fairing Recovery Boat" named Mr. Steven.
You can care to believe anything you choose.
Or whether you've ever heard of a parachute.
Good, because I choose to believe reality.
Obviously you have never been on the ocean.
Dipping, rolling, windy, wavey oceans.
I have been on the ocean a number of times and it's not always very "dipping, rolling, windy, wavey" and there are good predictions of swell.
And, whatever you day, Space X have landed quite a number of first stages in spite of your "dipping, rolling, windy, wavey oceans".

Had you bothered to investigate a little further, you might have learned that the
Space X "Fairing Recovery Boat" seems to be a method
proposed for the recovery of the second stage, which has no "legs".
Here are are couple of
simulations of possible ways of doing it:

Small people with closed minds sit on the sidelines and ridicule. More capable people with minds open to what can be achieved go out and get things done.
But, as always, you'll choose to ridicule and claim it's all fake, even though it's done open to public view.
