Human domino in the bus this morning.
Lessons learnt:
- Always hold on to something when you are standing on the bus
- Some bus drivers daydream/sleeping/doing something else, etc, while they are driving. So always look infront and be alert to be mentally prepared when there is a sudden break coming
- When you are sitting down, you might be thrown forwards and hit the back of the seat in front of you during a sudden break. So make sure your hands are empty to prevent yourself from slamming into it.
However,
- No matter how tightly you hold on to the metal bars, etc, when you are standing on the bus, you will still be thrown forward during a sudden break. And be prepared to fall flat on the ground if a human domino occurs, especially if the person next to you is erm... big
- Even if you are mentally prepared for a sudden break, the person next to you may not be. So be prepared to fall if the person flies towards you. (hmm... you could try to avoid him/her and watch the person fly all the way in front and... well you get what I mean...)
- Even if your hands are empty, you may not react fast enough to prevent yourself from slamming into the seat in front of you. (just make sure your teeth don't get knock off)
Anyway, we don't have to worry much about these since the probability of a sudden break is erm... 1/2? (Either it happens or it doesn't) Also, everything just happen in half a second. So by the time you realised what happened, you are:
- standing but stunned
- flat on the floor, stunned/surprised/excited/thrilled/calm/embarrassed/pissed off/WTF/crying/unconcious/etc
- sitting down and stunned, watching those standing a second earlier now flat on the ground
- sitting down kissing the back of the seat in front of you
- er... others...
So whatever happens, it will be all over quickly.
