- 0:05Speaker 1: ordinary ride home. But it wasn't that. This ride would
- 0:09Speaker 1: turn out to be the single most terrifying experience of

- 1:02Speaker 1: let's get into today's story. On the afternoon of September 4th, 2017,
- 1:06Speaker 1: a young man named Zhu rushed through a bus station
- 1:10Speaker 1: in southern Taiwan. Zhu's bus home to the capital city, Taipei,
- 1:30Speaker 1: would be leaving any minute now, and because Zhu was
- 1:32Speaker 1: running late, he knew the bus would be packed, and
- 1:35Speaker 1: he would get a terrible seat. And so Zhu just
- 1:37Speaker 1: kept on running as fast as he could, and he
- 1:39Speaker 1: finally saw his bus parked up against the curb on
- 1:41Speaker 1: the outside of this bus station, and he ran up
- 1:44Speaker 1: to it, totally winded, but glad that he hadn't missed
- 1:46Speaker 1: his bus. And so the driver noticed Zhu standing there,
- 1:49Speaker 1: and so he opened up the bus doors, and Zhu
- 1:51Speaker 1: went on board, handed the driver his ticket, and the
- 1:53Speaker 1: driver said, okay, you know, take your seat, and Zhu
- 1:56Speaker 1: turned and he began walking down the aisle. And at first,
- 1:58Speaker 1: he almost didn't register the weirdness of the inside of
- 2:02Speaker 1: this bus. I mean, he took this route all the
- 2:04Speaker 1: time and he was totally expecting this bus to be packed.
- 2:08Speaker 1: But as he was walking down the aisle, he realized
- 2:11Speaker 1: he was the only one on the bus. There was
- 2:12Speaker 1: literally nobody else. It was just Zhu and the driver.
- 2:16Speaker 1: And so for a second, Zhu thought maybe he had
- 2:18Speaker 1: made a mistake and this was not his bus. But
- 2:20Speaker 1: he checked his watch and, you know, again, he had
- 2:22Speaker 1: taken this bus many times and he knew this was it.
- 2:25Speaker 1: And so he was about to turn and maybe ask
- 2:27Speaker 1: the bus driver, but the bus driver shut the doors,
- 2:29Speaker 1: turned on the engine, and began to pull away. And
- 2:32Speaker 1: so Zhu just thought, well, I guess it's just my
- 2:34Speaker 1: lucky day. You know, I have the bus to myself.
- 2:36Speaker 1: This is crazy. And so Zhu found a seat towards
- 2:38Speaker 1: the front of the bus, and after sitting down and
- 2:40Speaker 1: kind of getting situated, he just sat there and stared
- 2:43Speaker 1: out the window as the driver, you know, merged into
- 2:45Speaker 1: traffic and eventually found their way onto the highway. And
- 2:48Speaker 1: as they were just coasting along, Zhu really felt content.
- 2:51Speaker 1: I mean, it really felt like he had this private
- 2:53Speaker 1: ride all to himself, and This was not a short
- 2:56Speaker 1: bus ride. It was like a six-hour bus ride. And
- 2:58Speaker 1: so the idea of just having peace and calm the
- 3:01Speaker 1: whole time, I mean, that was so luxurious and unexpected.
- 3:04Speaker 1: And so Zhu is just having a wonderful time, just
- 3:06Speaker 1: kind of taking it all in, when all of a
- 3:09Speaker 1: sudden he hears a woman coughing behind him. And remember,
- 3:12Speaker 1: he's scanned the bus. It's empty. And so he whipped
- 3:15Speaker 1: his head around, totally startled, like maybe there was somebody
- 3:18Speaker 1: on the bus, but He looked behind him and there
- 3:21Speaker 1: was no one. And so very quickly, Zhu began to
- 3:23Speaker 1: rationalize what he had just heard. You know, he's looking
- 3:26Speaker 1: around thinking, okay, one of the windows is slightly open.
- 3:28Speaker 1: Maybe the wind was coming in weird and causing a
- 3:31Speaker 1: sound or maybe it wasn't behind me. Maybe that cough
- 3:34Speaker 1: came from the driver and somehow I thought it was
- 3:36Speaker 1: back here. You know, Zhu's telling himself that that wasn't
- 3:39Speaker 1: really a woman coughing because there's nobody here. And so
- 3:41Speaker 1: before long, Zhu convinced himself that, you know, that was
- 3:44Speaker 1: just an anomaly. It was nothing to worry about. And
- 3:46Speaker 1: he was back to just relaxing and enjoying this peaceful ride.
- 3:50Speaker 1: And pretty soon after that, he began to drift off
- 3:52Speaker 1: to sleep. A few hours later, Zhu woke up and
- 3:54Speaker 1: he was very groggy and he looked out the window
- 3:56Speaker 1: and saw it was dark and he checked his watch
- 3:58Speaker 1: and saw they were maybe about halfway to their destination.
- 4:01Speaker 1: And then he looked at his phone and saw he
- 4:03Speaker 1: had a text message from the friend he had just
- 4:05Speaker 1: been visiting, the friend he had been with before he
- 4:06Speaker 1: left and got on this bus. And the friend was
- 4:08Speaker 1: basically asking Zhu how the ride home was going. And Zhu,
- 4:12Speaker 1: you know, he wrote back and said, you know, you
- 4:13Speaker 1: won't believe this. I'm on a bus that's completely empty.
- 4:16Speaker 1: Like I have the bus to myself. And this friend,
- 4:19Speaker 1: who was familiar with how packed this particular ride to
- 4:21Speaker 1: Taipei was, was like, no way. That bus is never
- 4:25Speaker 1: not filled with people. You've got to send me proof.
- 4:28Speaker 1: And so Zhu opened the camera on his phone, he
- 4:29Speaker 1: turned around, and he snapped a photo of the back
- 4:32Speaker 1: of the bus. But when he looked at the photo
- 4:34Speaker 1: he had taken, it was very grainy, and there wasn't
- 4:36Speaker 1: any light in the bus, and there wasn't a flash
- 4:38Speaker 1: on his phone. And so instead, Zhu, who happened to
- 4:41Speaker 1: be a semi-professional photographer... He pulled out his really nice,
- 4:44Speaker 1: high-quality digital camera out of his bag, and with that camera,
- 4:48Speaker 1: he turned around and took a photo. But when Zhu
- 4:51Speaker 1: looked at the photo he had just taken, he thought
- 4:54Speaker 1: there was something wrong with it. And so he zoomed
- 4:56Speaker 1: in on the photo, and he couldn't believe what he
- 4:58Speaker 1: was looking at. And so he checked all the settings
- 5:00Speaker 1: of his camera and checked the lens to make sure
- 5:02Speaker 1: everything was working properly, and it was. And so starting
- 5:06Speaker 1: to get kind of scared... Zhu put the camera down
- 5:08Speaker 1: and walked to the back of the bus and walked
- 5:10Speaker 1: up and down a couple of times looking for some
- 5:12Speaker 1: explanation of what was in that photo. But there was
- 5:15Speaker 1: no explanation. And so now feeling really scared, Zhu went
- 5:19Speaker 1: back to his seat, grabbed his phone to text his
- 5:21Speaker 1: friend to be like, look what I found. But his
- 5:23Speaker 1: phone was dead. Even though his phone had full battery
- 5:26Speaker 1: like a minute ago, now his phone doesn't work and
- 5:28Speaker 1: he can't turn it back on. And so Zhu's thinking,
- 5:30Speaker 1: what do I do? Do I tell the bus driver
- 5:32Speaker 1: about this photo? But he was worried if he showed
- 5:34Speaker 1: the driver, it would be so startling that the driver
- 5:38Speaker 1: might crash the bus. And so Zhu really felt completely
- 5:41Speaker 1: alone and terrified. And he just placed his camera next
- 5:45Speaker 1: to him and then just closed his eyes and began
- 5:47Speaker 1: silently praying that he would get off this bus. But
- 5:50Speaker 1: as he was doing that, He began to hear whispering
- 5:53Speaker 1: right behind him, like numerous people whispering right behind him.
- 5:57Speaker 1: And he whipped his head around. But again, there's nobody there.
- 6:00Speaker 1: And so now, you know, the fear is only getting
- 6:02Speaker 1: more and more heightened inside of Zhu. He goes back
- 6:04Speaker 1: to praying. And now, in addition to the whispers behind him,
- 6:07Speaker 1: he starts to hear the sound of seats basically creaking
- 6:10Speaker 1: as if somebody's sitting in them, kind of rocking back
- 6:12Speaker 1: and forth. And now Zhu, he's too scared to turn around.
- 6:15Speaker 1: And so he just keeps on praying and praying, and
- 6:17Speaker 1: the noise behind him, this cacophony of sounds, is getting
- 6:20Speaker 1: louder and louder. And finally, Zhu looks up at the driver,
- 6:23Speaker 1: hoping the driver can hear the stuff, you know, to
- 6:25Speaker 1: confirm that Zhu's not losing his mind here. But the
- 6:29Speaker 1: driver looked like he was just paying attention to the road,
- 6:31Speaker 1: completely oblivious to what was happening inside of this bus.
- 6:34Speaker 1: And so Zhu is horrified, has no idea what to do.
- 6:37Speaker 1: These noises are not stopping, despite the fact nobody else
- 6:40Speaker 1: is on this bus. And so Zhu finally plugged his ears,
- 6:43Speaker 1: just so he wouldn't hear it, and just tucked himself
- 6:46Speaker 1: down in a ball and just continued to pray for
- 6:48Speaker 1: the next three hours, all the way until the bus
- 6:51Speaker 1: finally stopped. And when the bus stopped, Zhu unplugged his
- 6:54Speaker 1: ears and opened his eyes, expecting to hear all these
- 6:57Speaker 1: whispers and sounds, but the bus sounded totally quiet and normal.
- 7:00Speaker 1: And the bus driver, you know, was... kind of going
- 7:02Speaker 1: through the shutdown procedures of the bus. They were in
- 7:04Speaker 1: the Taipei bus station. And so Zhu was feeling totally
- 7:07Speaker 1: relieved here and he couldn't wait to get off this bus.
- 7:10Speaker 1: And so Zhu, he grabbed his camera and his things,
- 7:12Speaker 1: packed them all up. And then as quick as he could,
- 7:13Speaker 1: he began walking towards the front of the bus. But
- 7:16Speaker 1: before Zhu got off the bus, the driver stopped him
- 7:19Speaker 1: because he saw, you know, Zhu looked horrible. He was
- 7:21Speaker 1: sweating profusely. His skin was flushed. He looked like, you know,
- 7:24Speaker 1: something bad had just happened to him. And he asked Zhu, like, hey,
- 7:27Speaker 1: are you okay? And Zhu was about to be like, oh, no,
- 7:29Speaker 1: everything's fine, and just kind of get off the bus.
- 7:32Speaker 1: But then he thought to himself, you know, I have
- 7:34Speaker 1: no explanation for what just happened. And that was horrifying.
- 7:36Speaker 1: I don't know what that was. And I took this
- 7:38Speaker 1: photo that I can't explain to that seems definitely connected
- 7:41Speaker 1: to all the noises I just heard. And now that
- 7:44Speaker 1: the bus has stopped, there's no risk of showing the
- 7:46Speaker 1: driver and risking scaring him so badly that we crash.
- 7:49Speaker 1: And so Zhu thought, you know what, even if it
- 7:51Speaker 1: makes me look crazy, I'm going to show the driver
- 7:53Speaker 1: this photo and see what he thinks. And so Zhu
- 7:56Speaker 1: was like, actually, let me show you something. So he
- 7:58Speaker 1: pulls out his camera and he shows the driver the photo.
- 8:01Speaker 1: And as the driver is kind of looking at the photo,
- 8:03Speaker 1: not really sure what to look for, Zhu, he reaches
- 8:05Speaker 1: down and he zooms in on the top half of
- 8:08Speaker 1: the photo and it expands the ceiling of the back
- 8:12Speaker 1: of the bus. And you can very clearly see there
- 8:15Speaker 1: is a huge human arm and hand extending off the ceiling,
- 8:19Speaker 1: like it's reaching down into the bus. And so as
- 8:22Speaker 1: the bus driver is studying this arm and hand, Zhu
- 8:25Speaker 1: was saying, you know, I thought for a second that
- 8:27Speaker 1: could have been me, you know, reflected off the ceiling
- 8:29Speaker 1: or something. But I was holding the camera in my hand.
- 8:32Speaker 1: And so wouldn't the camera be in the reflection if
- 8:35Speaker 1: that's my arm? Wouldn't the camera be visible? Because it's not.
- 8:38Speaker 1: And then Zhu also was like, I thought for a
- 8:40Speaker 1: second maybe it was your arm. but you're driving the bus.
- 8:43Speaker 1: Your hands are on the steering wheel. And so if
- 8:45Speaker 1: this arm is your hand, wouldn't the steering wheel be
- 8:48Speaker 1: in the reflection? Like, I don't understand how there's an
- 8:51Speaker 1: arm with nothing in the hand reaching down from the ceiling.
- 8:55Speaker 1: And then Zhu also told the driver that in addition
- 8:57Speaker 1: to this totally terrifying photo of this ghost arm coming
- 9:00Speaker 1: off the ceiling, There were all these weird whispers and
- 9:03Speaker 1: sounds and noises behind him for the whole ride. Like
- 9:06Speaker 1: it was horrifying. And so after Zhu has detailed to
- 9:09Speaker 1: this bus driver that basically your bus is haunted and
- 9:11Speaker 1: I have photo proof, you know, Zhu is expecting the
- 9:14Speaker 1: driver to have a pretty big reaction to this. I mean, geez,
- 9:17Speaker 1: this is pretty big news here. But the driver just
- 9:20Speaker 1: handed the camera back to Zhu and basically turned to
- 9:23Speaker 1: Zhu and said, you know what? You can't show this
- 9:25Speaker 1: photo to anybody. Like no one can know about what
- 9:29Speaker 1: happens on my bus. because if they find out, it'll
- 9:32Speaker 1: ruin my business. And Zhu's thinking, wait a minute, does
- 9:34Speaker 1: this mean the bus is haunted? Is that what the
- 9:36Speaker 1: bus driver is confirming here? He doesn't seem shocked. He
- 9:40Speaker 1: seems like this is completely routine. This is what happens
- 9:42Speaker 1: on his bus. And Zhu was about to protest and
- 9:45Speaker 1: be like, are you kidding me? Like, you know, why
- 9:46Speaker 1: aren't you telling people about what's happening on your bus?
- 9:49Speaker 1: But then Zhu was like, you know what? I don't
- 9:51Speaker 1: know this guy. I don't care about this bus. You
- 9:53Speaker 1: know what? I'm done with this. And so he said
- 9:55Speaker 1: to the driver, don't worry. I won't tell anyone about,
- 9:58Speaker 1: you know, your haunted bus. I won't show anyone this photo.
- 10:01Speaker 1: Thank you. And then Zhu got off the bus. When
- 10:03Speaker 1: Zhu finally got to his house, it was around midnight
- 10:05Speaker 1: and Zhu was exhausted. So he goes inside, he lays
- 10:08Speaker 1: on his couch and he plugs his phone in because
- 10:10Speaker 1: his phone was dead. And as soon as his phone
- 10:12Speaker 1: turned on, he saw all these messages from his friend
- 10:15Speaker 1: who had asked him to send proof that the bus
- 10:17Speaker 1: he was on was really empty. And so Zhu wanted
- 10:20Speaker 1: to tell his friend about all the crazy stuff that
- 10:22Speaker 1: had happened on the bus. He wanted to send him
- 10:23Speaker 1: that photo of, you know, the ghost arm. But also
- 10:26Speaker 1: Zhu had promised the bus driver not to share this
- 10:29Speaker 1: information with anyone because it could destroy this guy's business.
- 10:32Speaker 1: And so as he was sitting there kind of wondering
- 10:34Speaker 1: how to respond, something caught Zhu's attention outside. And so
- 10:37Speaker 1: he turned and looked out the window and he saw
- 10:39Speaker 1: all these people walking down the road carrying red lanterns.
- 10:43Speaker 1: And suddenly... everything sort of clicked for Zhu. It was
- 10:47Speaker 1: September 5th, which is important because it marked the beginning
- 10:51Speaker 1: of a big event in Taiwan known as the Hungry
- 10:54Speaker 1: Ghost Festival, and the people Zhu saw outside walking around
- 10:57Speaker 1: with red lanterns were clearly participating in this event. This
- 11:01Speaker 1: festival is celebrated every year in Taiwan, and it's all
- 11:04Speaker 1: about honoring the dead and feeding them with offerings. For example,
- 11:09Speaker 1: people will burn fake money they call ghost money, And
- 11:12Speaker 1: once it gets burned, you know, the spirits of the
- 11:14Speaker 1: dead can use that money during the ghost month. People
- 11:18Speaker 1: in Taiwan believe that during this ghost month, the gates
- 11:22Speaker 1: of heaven and hell open up and spirits come out
- 11:25Speaker 1: and walk the earth alongside all the living, which could
- 11:28Speaker 1: be a great thing. You know, if you have a
- 11:29Speaker 1: dead loved one or friend or somebody, you can reconnect
- 11:32Speaker 1: with them during this event. But it also can be
- 11:34Speaker 1: a bad thing because sometimes angry spirits emerge from the
- 11:38Speaker 1: gates of hell and and they wreak havoc on the living.
- 11:41Speaker 1: And so as soon as Zhu realized that, you know,
- 11:43Speaker 1: today was the start of this Hungry Ghost Festival, he
- 11:46Speaker 1: realized why the day before when he was on that bus,
- 11:49Speaker 1: he realized why it was empty. Because there's the superstition
- 11:52Speaker 1: in Taiwan that September 4th, the day before this festival,
- 11:56Speaker 1: is the day when all the spirits are traveling around
- 11:59Speaker 1: the globe. And it's believed that that day is a
- 12:02Speaker 1: very dangerous day for the living to be out and
- 12:04Speaker 1: about because you don't want to come in contact by
- 12:07Speaker 1: accident with, you know, one of the evil spirits. And
- 12:09Speaker 1: so nobody travels on September 4th. But Zhu had just
- 12:13Speaker 1: forgotten and just believed he had struck luck by having
- 12:16Speaker 1: this empty bus. But then as Zhu was kind of
- 12:18Speaker 1: working this through in his mind, he was thinking, wait
- 12:21Speaker 1: a minute, all that weird stuff on the bus, the whispers,
- 12:23Speaker 1: the sounds, you know, the ghost arm reaching out of
- 12:26Speaker 1: the ceiling that he got on camera. Was that some
- 12:29Speaker 1: sign that he had just come in contact with an
- 12:31Speaker 1: evil spirit? Was he now in danger? Was the spirit
- 12:34Speaker 1: going to like follow him around and haunt him? He
- 12:36Speaker 1: didn't know. But now he's thinking, oh my goodness, I
- 12:39Speaker 1: did the thing I wasn't supposed to do. And now
- 12:41Speaker 1: I could be paying the consequences for it. And so
- 12:43Speaker 1: Zhu suddenly was like, you know what? I don't care
- 12:45Speaker 1: that I made some promise to the bus driver about
- 12:48Speaker 1: not disclosing this photo or what I experienced on the bus,
- 12:51Speaker 1: because now this is like a me problem. Like I
- 12:53Speaker 1: could have big issues here. And so he decided he
- 12:55Speaker 1: would send this photo to his friend and tell his
- 12:58Speaker 1: friend about what he experienced on the bus to see
- 13:00Speaker 1: what his friend thought. And so after messaging his friend,
- 13:03Speaker 1: his friend wrote back that he was horrified by that photo.
- 13:06Speaker 1: You know, seeing that arm reaching down out of the ceiling,
- 13:09Speaker 1: that was horrifying. And his friend didn't know what to
- 13:11Speaker 1: make of it and did agree that, you know, given
- 13:13Speaker 1: the fact that the Hungry Ghost Festival has just started
- 13:15Speaker 1: and you were out there on the day before, like,
- 13:18Speaker 1: this isn't good. You could have come in contact with
- 13:21Speaker 1: an evil spirit here. But his friend also gave Zhu
- 13:23Speaker 1: some advice of how to handle this. He told Zhu
- 13:26Speaker 1: to take that photo and Now that sounds kind of goofy,
- 13:31Speaker 1: but in Taiwan, there's this belief that if you have
- 13:34Speaker 1: bad luck, the best way to deal with bad luck
- 13:37Speaker 1: is to basically dilute that bad luck by sharing it
- 13:40Speaker 1: with other people. It's kind of like those old email
- 13:42Speaker 1: forwards that people used to pass around, like, hey, you know,
- 13:45Speaker 1: forward this email along to five other people or else
- 13:47Speaker 1: you'll have bad luck. It was kind of like that. Like,
- 13:50Speaker 1: just share it with the world and, you know, pass
- 13:51Speaker 1: on your bad luck to other people, basically. And so
- 13:54Speaker 1: Zhu's friend told Zhu, like, look, I know this isn't
- 13:56Speaker 1: really bad luck we're dealing with here, but maybe if
- 13:59Speaker 1: you just share this with the world, you know, dilute
- 14:01Speaker 1: what happened to you, maybe that will reduce the power
- 14:04Speaker 1: this ghost has over you. You know, it's worth a shot.
- 14:07Speaker 1: And so Zhu posted the photo to Facebook and it
- 14:09Speaker 1: pretty much immediately went viral. Millions of people saw it.
- 14:13Speaker 1: And this is what Zhu wanted. He wanted, you know,
- 14:15Speaker 1: max dilution here, show it to everybody to reduce the
- 14:17Speaker 1: chances that this, you know, entity can hurt him. But
- 14:21Speaker 1: after all these people saw it, lots of people were
- 14:24Speaker 1: spooked and they began messaging Zhu, not like, don't worry,
- 14:27Speaker 1: it's diluted now. But instead they were like, hey man,
- 14:30Speaker 1: you're in trouble. You know, this thing's going to come
- 14:32Speaker 1: after you. You need to seek real help here. You're
- 14:34Speaker 1: in danger. And so this ended up freaking out Zhu
- 14:37Speaker 1: more than the photo did in some way. It just
- 14:39Speaker 1: made the whole situation feel far more real. And so
- 14:42Speaker 1: Zhu ended up deleting the photo on Facebook, setting his
- 14:45Speaker 1: Facebook to private, and basically staying off social media. And
- 14:48Speaker 1: then he just kind of hoped and prayed that if
- 14:50Speaker 1: he did nothing and just stayed home and kind of
- 14:51Speaker 1: minded his own business, that he'd be okay. And after
- 14:54Speaker 1: a few days, when nothing did happen, ultimately he just
- 14:57Speaker 1: told himself, I'm okay. There's no ghosts here. I'm fine.
- 15:00Speaker 1: But exactly one week after Zhu had got off the bus,
- 15:04Speaker 1: so September 11th, 2017, Zhu is in his house. He's
- 15:08Speaker 1: laying on the couch, you know, not really thinking about
- 15:10Speaker 1: what had happened on the bus. And as he's scrolling
- 15:13Speaker 1: social media, he comes across this headline about this horrible
- 15:17Speaker 1: accident out on the highway not far from where he lived.
- 15:20Speaker 1: And it was this one vehicle that got into this
- 15:21Speaker 1: huge wreck and six people were killed and 11 others
- 15:25Speaker 1: were injured. I mean, it's this horrible, horrible accident. And
- 15:28Speaker 1: as Zhu is like reading the article and scrolling down,
- 15:31Speaker 1: he comes across a photo of the driver of this
- 15:34Speaker 1: vehicle who's covered head to toe in blood. He looks
- 15:36Speaker 1: totally haggard. He's standing out on this dark highway. And
- 15:39Speaker 1: Zhu realizes the driver of the vehicle was the bus
- 15:43Speaker 1: driver from when he had that horrible experience on the bus.
- 15:46Speaker 1: It's the same guy. And so Zhu's like, oh my gosh,
- 15:49Speaker 1: what's going on here? He scrolls down and he realizes
- 15:51Speaker 1: the vehicle that crashed was the exact same bus he
- 15:55Speaker 1: had been riding in When all this stuff happened, it
- 15:58Speaker 1: was the same bus driver, same bus on the exact
- 16:00Speaker 1: same route that this accident happened. And so obviously this
- 16:04Speaker 1: is like a horrifying coincidence. Zhu very likely was thinking,
- 16:07Speaker 1: I'm so lucky this didn't happen when I was on
- 16:09Speaker 1: the bus. But when you take into context what Zhu
- 16:13Speaker 1: experienced on that bus just a week earlier, the photo,
- 16:17Speaker 1: you know, the sounds, all of it, this story gets
- 16:20Speaker 1: even weirder because the official story is the driver was
- 16:23Speaker 1: negligent and that's what caused the crash. That's it. And
- 16:26Speaker 1: he actually went to jail for negligence. But there's video
- 16:29Speaker 1: footage taken from inside of the bus right before it crashed.
- 16:32Speaker 1: And in the final 30 seconds, something strange happens. The
- 16:36Speaker 1: driver does not seem distracted at all. He's just driving along.
- 16:39Speaker 1: But then something catches his attention, something off to his side.
- 16:42Speaker 1: And you can tell right away he notices whatever this
- 16:44Speaker 1: thing is. And he's He's turning. He's looking at this thing.
- 16:47Speaker 1: He's not really paying attention to the road. And he
- 16:49Speaker 1: starts reaching down. I mean, he's interacting with something in
- 16:52Speaker 1: the bus and you can't see it on camera. And
- 16:55Speaker 1: as he gets more and more into dealing with whatever's
- 16:57Speaker 1: happening over here, the bus crashes. Now, the driver never
- 17:01Speaker 1: gave any public testimony about what was going on right
- 17:04Speaker 1: before he crashed. All we have is the fact that
- 17:07Speaker 1: it crashed and this video footage and Zhu's experience and
- 17:11Speaker 1: that photo he took. And when you put it all together,
- 17:14Speaker 1: it really makes you wonder if there was any truth
- 17:16Speaker 1: to there really being some evil spirit on that bus
- 17:19Speaker 1: that maybe did cause this crash. Or is it just
- 17:23Speaker 1: a series of unexplainable coincidences? You be the judge. Thank
- 17:35Speaker 1: you so much for watching. Let me know what you
- 17:37Speaker 1: thought of today's episode in the comments below. And remember,
- 17:40Speaker 1: we have hundreds of videos for you to binge right now.
- 17:43Speaker 1: But if you're looking for a recommendation from me of
- 17:46Speaker 1: that one video that's worth your time, well, it's this
- 17:49Speaker 1: one right here. So give it a watch. All right,
- 17:52Speaker 1: until next time, see ya.
