VIDEO: Golf Cart Accident on Course Results in Fatal Injury
There is a great sense of unpredictability about life and what can happen next. The notion of not being able to know what is about to come is something that some people truly enjoy, but there are some who despise being in the unknown.
The saying ‘You only live once’ has given people the will and motivation to take risks and forego the worry of “what ifs.” A viral video clip showed the moment a group of friends took their moment of fun a tad bit too far and paid a heavy price.
Golf cart fun proves deadly
Uploaded by the channel ‘BrutalCams‘ the video showed a golf cart or caddy, which is popularly called in golf terms, coming down a steep slope. The person driving the cart took it off the road and turned towards the grassy fields on the sides.
The turn he took to make their way onto the grassy side was a sharp one, and they approached the turn with great speed, too. The man then proceeded to try and drift the golf cart coming down at high speed and tried to get off the cart amidst all the action.
The steep turn caused the caddy to lose balance as all weight transferred to one side. The cart overturned, and the man driving it was caught right under it. The cart fell straight over his head, and in the video, the man hit the ground completely motionless.
Reports later revealed that the man driving the cart passed away on the way to the hospital, and his friend with him is in critical condition. This video took the internet by storm as netizens showed concern for the injured man.

The person here could not get over the fact that the man died because of a caddy falling on him.
Looks as though his neck was broken along with his head slam crushed by the roof of the golf cart.

The user here narrated what they thought could have happened with the man after the unfortunate accident.
One user speculated if this video was of the same incident as reported on cbsnews, in 2011 due to its similar nature. As the incident unfolded, a 43-year-old man died after the golf cart flipped after taking a sharp turn, which in turn landed on his neck, leading to major injuries that proved fatal.
Golf carts are presumed to be quite safe, but the number of incidents happening due to casual and careless handling is quite alarming. What are you thoughts about the video? Let us know in the comments below!
