Terrible design with the single shear load on the bolt, and it's 2x! Wow. That jump wasn't that big honestly... it makes you wonder if they actually drove that on the street at all, because it isn't road worthy IMO. I'd say it's bad engineering, but my guess is there was NO engineering involved in that... That's a pretty simple situation to run on a stress analysis program....
