That's pretty wild. I didn't know they got airborne like that. Some of those looked like they really hurt.

I used to be a mechanic at a slow go kart place, and there was nothing funnier than seeing 10 year old kids drive straight into the bushes and hit the fence... cleanup/repair wasn't as fun. Two things I hated repairing the most were drive belts and steering racks.
On the bigger karts, the throttle linkage was really close to some brackets and used to get stuck all the time. One time someone's throttle got stuck on thier 'fast' go kart (up to 40mph on a straight) and they lost control of the steering/panicked - they ended up with the front end up about 45 degrees resting on the chainlink fence. Almost everyday someone would hop the curbs on the track and run through the grass and blow the shocks sometimes too. We were right next to the highway too and before they put in a guard rail, sometimes cars would crash onto our track.
I've seen some pretty funny accidents, none bad as in someone being injured.
