That's a LOT of flak. Thanks for the link.

I am wondering how big damage made those aircrafts to carriers when they hit them

Is it possible to sink carrier by those kamikaze pilots ?

The planes were loaded with explosives. Notice the size of the explosion in the very first attack shown. The carrier is of course also loaded with aviation fuel. They burn very well.
