this image below is the double-hinges leg causing the problem:

If you place 4, 6 or 8 of this legs on a something that weights enough, then the vessel will start shaking incontrollably as if it had parkinsons until the bounciness builds up so much that the vessel will go from still to a crazy 360° jump into the air

How to reproduce it:

1)Place 4 of those legs on a vessel that weights enough. I had a lander with 2 "reliant" engines on the sides and 3 "medium version" fuel storage of the same diameter of a reliant, one on the center and 2 symmetrical on the sides (The legs mounted on the center piece.)
2)The crazy shaking is noticeable as soon as the lander is placed on the VAB launch platform, one might try increasing the spring strenght to make it jump even more.

This behaviour is surprising and clearly not normal, other player who tried reproducing this noted confirmed it is at least two different bugs (in their case, after that crazy jump the lander crushed on the engine which instead of exploding, made the whole thing bounce again)
