Yeah, it happened in the Russian city of Perm. The bus' brakes failed completely, and it hit 22 cars before hitting a pole and coming into a halt. Luckily nobody died. One of the cars that it crashed into was dragged for half a mile.

I never saw the point of blasting music when you're walking. Earphones/headphones disconnect you from the world in a bad way if you're in an environment where you should be using all your senses, not 'stuck in your own world'. I mean not just accidents like that but potentially getting robbed just cause you were too busy rocking out to Coldplay or Jay-Z and not paying attention to where you're at. Like this guy, luckily he was already in a brisk jog mode, I now jog across the street however I use to and know people that take their dandy time on the crosswalk acting like they own the street, morons cars really don't give a shiat
