KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) - A video camera mounted at the front of a boat on Missouri's Lake of the Ozarks captures a frightening accident that left seven people hurt but nobody killed.

Brett Tintera is a cameraman for Lake TV, a cable and Internet station. He was filming events leading up to weekend boat races when he hitched a ride on a power boat Aug. 24.

He says the boat took off at high speed before being smacked by waves. The video shows the craft and everyone aboard bouncing violently.

Tintera says his injuries included broken bones and cuts. Five people on board were taken to a hospital. Two others refused treatment.
