This horrifying footage shows a cart hurtling down a hill moments before crashing leaving a man fighting for his life in hospital.
The men dressed in RAF costumes can be seen racing down a hill in the Kent village of Sutton Valence.
The two men pushing the pram can be seen jumping onto the back of the cart as it hurtles down the hill.
However, seconds later the pram crashed during the annual New Year's Day race in front of horrified spectators.
A 52-year-old man is now fighting for his life in hospital.
Thousands of spectators lined the streets to watch the ever-popular pram race through Sutton Valence yesterday.
Each team had to complete two laps of the loop road in the village, including "pit stops" at the pubs along the way.
But, shortly after 12.30pm and during the second race, emergency services were called to after a man fell from one of the prams.
The crash appeared to take place on a downhill section of the track lined with spectators.
The man suffered a serious head injury and was airlifted to King's College hospital in London.

Reports on social media have suggested the man has died. However, Kent Police has confirmed to Mirror Online that he is still being treated for his injuries in hospital.
One eye witness told Kent Online : "Three men dressed in RAF costumes and a pram designed like an aeroplane came down the street at speed before the pram flipped over.
"It literally happened a few feet in front of me; they fell at my feet.
"It all happened so quickly and then I saw blood on the floor."

The witness added that the event's first aid tent was next to where the man fell, so people were with him immediately.
It is believed off-duty doctors and a paramedic were also at the scene.
"The three RAF guys were going a lot quicker than the pram in front of them. As soon as I saw them coming at that speed I thought there was going to be a crash, but I didn't think it was going to be that bad," the witness added.
The event, which is organised by The Queen's Head Oddfellows Fund, is held every year to raise money for charity.
