A man who almost drove off a mountain precipice escaped from the teetering wreck only to be struck by a passing bus.
On Saturday afternoon, the motorist lost control of his vehicle while driving along Malibu Canyon Road, leading the SUV to dangle off the side of the cliff, according to Los Angeles Sheriff's Department. Although the driver managed to climb out of the vehicle, he was then hit by a tour bus that was passing by.
He will be OK, according to reports. It's a good job he was hit, actually, because if he'd noticed the bus, he'd have ran away over the cliff edge only to hover in space for several seconds, notice his predicament, then look plaintively at the viewer for a moment before plunging to his doom.
