It would be quite a unique setup for a family that enjoyed MTB riding.

I realize the kid didn't do any of the more dangerous stunts, but the video indicated that the parts the kid did actually do, I think she absolutely enjoyed the ride.

I'd love to see a small rental shop that could buy absolutely top of the line gear, then rent it out at a reasonable cost.

For example, rent kids trailers like this for say $100 a year.

Unfortunately, at $100, it would take 16 years to pay off the capital, plus any maintenance.

I wonder how hard it would be to make one of those. Chromoly roll cage. Perhaps the lefty rear end, although one could could use a fork. A good hitch that would flex a lot, but wouldn't roll (most of the afterburner type hitches would probably work).
