That was the most brilliant thing I've seen someone do with a bus, wedging it under the other one to keep it from rolling. Sheer genius. Good thing it was firemen in there too, if it'd been kids a lot of people would've been mad at him over everything he did to try and help, forgetting that buses are designed to take a hit.

Wow. How terrifying. I drove bus. You are completely responsible for the lives on your bus. Even though the trouble wasn't he's fault, if he'd crashed, and survived, he wouldn't have felt responsible for any deaths or injuries. I'm so glad he had such an intelligent and caring friend who saved his life, along with all those fire fighters.

I used to watch this show when it first came out on broadcast TV. I never realized how elaborate the reenactments were. And the acting was even good, not the cardboard soap opera acting, and overbearing narrative you see with a lot of other shows of this kind. Quality show.

The newer buses and big rigs nowadays the parking brake pops on when the air pressure drops below 60 PSI

Those guys did a good job, here is an old bus driving song that we would sing after a trip.. Thank you Mr Bus driver thanks for the ride. Going this way and that way, and sometimes the wrong way, thank you Mr. Bus diver thanks for the ride! Three cheers for these brave guys!

That was awsome driving by both of the bus drivers. Awesome done at the end where he push him out and use his bus to support the other bus for not tipping over! They should get a medal!!!!

I love this segment cause Pete sings "Runaway Bus" at the end!! This segment reminds me of the one where the trucker loses his brakes, and his friend has to help stop his truck!!

They're all from Episode 411. Each Rescue 911 episode had three to five stories. Episode 411 had four stories: 1. "Three Men and a Little Girl" 2. "Brakeless Bus 3. "CO-Poisoned Family" 4. "911 Santa Delivery"

I certainly didn't expect them to stop the bus this way!

wow he did such a good job ✨👍✨ and is a hero.

OMG thats so scary. Glad to hear nobody got hurt.

when the bus pulled onto the side of the road, it was VERY smart to get up right beside him, if he didn't, the bus on the side of the road would've tipped and toppled, and they would've died because of blows to the head. no seat belt on those things.

Those things sure are tough. Do that with a car and its a crumpled piece of metal. These things had hardly a scratch.

Steinway Husky Yeah. I wouldn't be surprised if they continued to use this bus.

Good thing that on semi-trucks and busses if you're losing too much air pressure (under 40-60 PSI in the air tanks) the parking brakes applies automaticly, progressively as the air gets to zero and wont get off until you get at least 60 PSI in the tanks.

@bait28

5 жыл бұрын

there is no progressive application, once it's below 60, its activated 100%

That was amazing. Very good thinking.

in the beginning, the first bus was a Chevy. But near the end, it was an International.

When you loose all your air the brakes should lock. Also, anyone that has ever driven down hill, you don't take it out of gear. Props the the first driver hellova job.

@30795William

Nimbly if a bus is going downhill at TopSpeed The gears will grind against one another and the brakes won’t lock up that could explain why there was smoke coming from the bus the brakes were trying to stop it but because they were going down hill The momentum of gravity was pushing it down heal faster than the brakes could stop it There’s also the case that the brakes that were made back in the time that this happened we’re probably not as advanced as the ones we have today the film was made in 1992 so there is no telling how outdated those buses were

Those buses are from model year 1979-80 International but when they showed the speedometer and the brake PSI indicator, they showed the dash console of an International Loadstar 1700, which is the S1700s predecessor model and the S1700s had a different dash console

That was a VERY lucky stop!!

It looks like they tilted the camera to make the road look steeper. They probably filmed the jump on a flat road with no cliff to the side, and they probably did it slow and then sped up the film to make it look faster. I'm also guessing there was no one except the stunt drivers in the buses when they filmed them from the outside.

Those international vehicles had air over oil brakes which were very poor at best. I've known serious accidents caused by them failing. One on a hill killing 2 people. You still see some of these old vehicles on the road today. I'll never travel in one again and I avoid them if I can.

Good job bus drivers that could have ended up bad. Very scary situation

The bus lost its breaks from Debris hitting the air tanks.

i was to quick with my comment, they did get an award. They deserved it!!!!

Its a little hard to explai, but shifting a big truck or bus is a lot different than shifting in a car with a synchronized clutch. Yes, at 45mph you could normally pop it into 10th gear, but if you're going down a mountain with no brakes and building speed, there's no way you would be able to catch the gear in time. Maybe another trucker can explain it a little better than me.

Almost 30 years ago glad all were safe

On the Thursday before fall break, a bus lost its brakes in Westover Islands.

Whew, that scared me!

That was one hell of a way to stop a bus.

My dad used to drive big trucks. No brakes. He... toppled over a few trees...

this one is also interesting because in the begining commentary by shatner he stands beside a schoolbus instead of the usual Firetruck, ambulance,policecar,helicopter..

Thank you so much for posting this clip. I finally got to see it.

4:45 Even steel isn't enough to describe these guys balls.

Nice moves of the chauffeurs. They should make a Hollywood movie about a bus that can't slow down.

I agree they did the right thing, since they would never have made it down the hill, even if they didn't meet anyone. I was just shocked at the way they stopped it!!!

Ok how come nobody on that bus is screaming?? I would been screaming to death and having a panic attack if the bus didn't stop and going in fast speed.

"Win, Takumi."

that's awesome driving......

good driving

RandyDarkshade he was pushing the clutch but the transmission on the bus was spinning too fast so therefore all he was doing is grinding the gears. The same thing applies to manual transmission cars. If you are going too fast to down shift all you will do is grind gears when trying to down shift

Omg when I watch try not to laugh I see the magic school bus and the kid says oh no this is gonna be another crazy field trip and then the clip when he drives on that hill comes up lol

Yah god gives much wisdom n courage to good men!

yea, Jesus Christ probably would be the best bus driver, but I'd say next to him...these guys were pretty awesome. lol
