Anyone heard about this?

[b l d]

I was in Poland when this happened (im back in canada now) and i am polish myself and felt really bad when i heard about this.

It was a bus with polish pilgrims on a trip. The bus driving was on a road it was not allowed to be on because of the sharp turns and this was a huge bus(about the size of a greyhound, maybe a bit bigger) and it was going to fast on a sharp turn, burned the brakes out, and drove off a little cliff.

The bus hit the ground and exploded, those who were uninjured and got out were lucky cause those who couldnt but were still conscious were burned alive in there because the bus was on fire.

There were some people in intense care (and probably still are healing). Each of the affected families (and maybe relatives too, but im not sure) were to get $100,000.00.

In remembrance of these people the rolling stones ended up playing their concert in Poland for free and using money from tickets to give to the families.


An accident that could have easily been avoided but because of the drivers stupid mistake all those people had to suffer.

wow, that really sucks. I would rather die in the bus then try to survive.. Im not a pussy or anything, but i woudlnt want to be a vegtable all my life.

Aw man... makes you feel bad, ya know? for all those ppl..

 

[Jevro88]

it makes you wonder why do they let those stupid drivers on the road...and i would rather die instantly then live to tell...it would just be too horrible to keep telling ppl over and over...but the $100,000 aint bad but that isnt enough money to wash away the memory

wow... they should put a tollpole there not for a fee but to make sure stupid bus drives don't try and get on the road. id also rather die instantly because being a vegitable head or having to tell the story over and over it would suck pretty much either way.
