watch it: London double decker bus tilt tests


(I can’t get this to embed, but if you click on the image above, it’ll take you to the Pathé film site, where you can see the video. It’s worth a visit.)

I’m enjoying riding on the top of London’s double-decker buses, and yet I’m not really sure why they don’t tip over. I tweeted that from the top of one of those buses the other day, and Iain responded with a link to this video.

I suspect that, this video aside, it’s the thrill of imminent disaster that makes riding up top so much fun.

share and enjoy
