Chinese Scooter Can Jump, but the Engine Breaks

A bit extreme though, testing some cheap Chinese scooter to see how well will they land a jump sounds fun, especially if nobody get hurt, except the scooter.
While such vehicles as the one in this video are in no way made to withstand the abuse of motocross-style riding, seeing the unit swingarm mounting brakes break off is rather weird.

I could totally understand a bent frame or a broken wheel, watching the whole rear engine and suspension assembly come loose causes serious unrest.

While these several jumps could be regarded as a bit too much, I reckon they are far less than the torment a scooter's suspensions endures daily in the city traffic for several years.
