OFF THE RAILS: Mum And Young Daughter Sent Flying After Funfair Ride Car Comes Off Tracks

This footage shows a mum and her young daughter being sent flying after the car on the funfair ride they were in came off the rails.

The video of the incident shows a small, apparently safe rollercoaster ride for children going around at moderate speed but the car carrying the mum and her child suddenly comes off the rails as people watching gasp.

The pair are sent flying and hit the ground hard. The mum, despite apparently hitting her head on the ground when she fell, can be seen getting to her feet almost immediately and picking her child up as the footage ends.
