Good thing that white haired lady reacted and the guy saw her and looked behind him in time to jump.

I also noticed the "save my ass" types running out and not helping those that took the hit.

Yeah, that guy right behind the rear door that cowers and then kicks the door open might be the worst of them.

Can you imagine how messed up the guy would have been if he had been strapped into a seat belt?

wow! What really gets me here is the people seem to be more concerned about getting out of the bus and on their ways than they are concerned about the poor fellow that caught the brunt force. Nor did anyone even check on the people in the truck..

yeah tons of crazyness about this video. The guy that took all of the damage pretty much even gets walked over by what i thought was a off-duty nurse coming to check on him. the only one that did any good was the elderly lady that sat next to him after the crash and kept asking if everyone was alright. THEN as mentioned above, the guy in the back thats about 15' from the impact that kicks the door open to get out acts as if the bus is being bombarded by pickup trucks lol.

Seriously. I think the part of the audio got deleted where that guy yells "we're under attack, seek cover!"
