Wannabe Racehorse Ploughs Through Fence, Sending Man In Cart Flying Into Tree

This is the moment a wannabe racehorse pulling two men on a cart smashes through the fence of a residential property, sending one of the men crashing into a tree.

The incident took place in the town of Balneario Barra do Sul in the north of the southern Brazilian state of Santa Catarina on the morning of Thursday, 30th September.

The accident was captured by a security camera outside the residential property where it occurred.

The footage shows how the wannabe racehorse gallops around a bend in the road, but ends up crashing through the property’s fence, smashing a number of plant pots and bending the wooden gate out of shape.

Two men were travelling on the cart being pulled by the horse, and they can be seen trying to bring the animal under control as it bursts through the fence.

One of the men was sent flying into a tree and landed on the ground injured, while the other was luckier and managed to hop off the cart onto his feet.

The injured man, aged 33, was subsequently attended to by firemen who were called to the scene. He was sent to hospital to be treated for a cut to the head.

The two men said they were working at the time of the incident.

The horse was not injured, nor were any residents of the property, though they will now have to repair their patio’s fence and gate.
