This is the moment a group of teenagers cling onto the back of a double-decker bus as it hurtles down Oxford Street.

The three boys and a girl were spotted hitching a ride on the back of the 7 bus as it pulled away from the stop in central London.

It has since been viewed two million times with over 69,000 likes since it was recorded on March 8.

Another man is seen spray painting a graffiti tag on the bus at the same time.

Daisy Ice, who recorded the clip, said the teens were risking their lives.

‘It looked very dangerous, especially given how busy Oxford Street usually is, the 25-year-old business auditor told Creatorzine.

‘I felt shocked when I saw it, and also concerned about how dangerous it was.

‘The bus was moving relatively slowly, which may be why they thought it was just something fun to try.

‘There were quite a few people around who also witnessed it.

‘I’m not sure if anyone alerted the driver.

‘In the end, the bus continued moving and drove further away, and I didn’t see what happened afterwards, but it didn’t seem like anything serious occurred.

‘It was surprising to see something like this happen in such a busy and central area of London.’

And someone else said: ‘I’m a 72-year-old woman and I used to do this as a kid before I fell off and hurt myself.

Learning by experience still going on – difference is that today it’s filmed and put on internet.’
