By the way, this picture was taken by Michael von Graffenried during the London Riots in 2011

[–]I_Dont_Get_Out_Much 172 points173 points ago

Thank you for clarifying - for a horrible moment I thought this might have been a 7/7 picture.

[–]mushroomwig 41 points42 points ago

7/7 happened early in the morning with the bus explosion around 9:50am. This picture was obviously shot in the evening.

[–]tehpokernoob 31 points32 points ago

Maybe the fire was so bright that it looked like night time by comparison.

[–]tonebreaker 44 points45 points ago

Underexposure probably wouldn't cause the street lights and billboard lights to come on though.

[–]EnaBoC 38 points39 points ago

Magic

[–]Ratiqu 12 points13 points ago

When did magnets come into this?

[–]yourpenisinmyhand 2 points3 points ago

Bullshit. Magnets are miracles and Jesus.

[–]Squirrito 2 points3 points ago

Yes it was the morning. Source: I was on a bus in central London at the time. It was the strangest day of my life.

[–]the_hardest_part 1 point2 points ago

I was a couple blocks from the bus. It was an eerie and traumatic day for me.

[–]wually 2 points3 points ago

Blocks? We don't have those in London.... ಠ_ಠ

[–]estanmilko 2 points3 points ago

Streets, not blocks.

[–]JontanD 16 points17 points ago

Same, and then this would not have belonged in /r/funny whatsoever.

[–]Didalrightthanks 18 points19 points ago

It belongs here now?

[–]JackCraic 7 points8 points ago

Well yeh. You could refer to a party as a "riot" but if you were to refer to it as a "terrorist attack" people would stop smiling pretty quick.

[–]proamateur[S] 4 points5 points ago

I found the picture in an article for my local paper (Baltimore Sun if anyone cares) and according to the article no one was hurt. I made sure of that before posting

[–]JackCraic 2 points3 points ago

No one in that bus specifically you mean? The London riots last year had five confirmed fatalities over all.

Also, I don't trust the Baltimore Sun.

[–]Alex1233210 0 points1 point ago

This isn't much better... Infact I think it is kinda worse...

[–]jabba897 2 points3 points ago

Apart from the fact there wasn't people on this bus

[–]proamateur[S] 4 points5 points ago

7/7 picture? Edit: Now that I've researched it, I've realized my mistake, 2005 London Bombings, I didn't recognize the name

[–]Brainzz 8 points9 points ago

[–]WoodyPaige26 13 points14 points ago

Indeed. High Road in Tottenham to be specific. I lived on nearby Scales Road at the time. Needless to say, I no longer live on nearby Scales Road.

[–]weak_read 7 points8 points ago

Ooh. That second "nearby" was good.

[–]Suyefuji 10 points11 points ago

you should xpost this to /r/bitchimabus

[–]jaxspider 4 points5 points ago

You couldn't find a smaller picture? Its almost a thumbnail. What is this picture? A picture for Ants? It needs to be... like 3 times bigger.

[–]Cueball61 1 point2 points ago

Never have I been as ashamed to be a British teen than I was during those riots.

[–]Dr_Refaie 1 point2 points ago

First comment answered my question, thank you very much.

[–]AttackTribble 0 points1 point ago

Any idea where? The building on the left looks very familiar.

[–]capacop 0 points1 point ago

Do you know where I can get a hi res version of this?

[–]NSRedditor 1 point2 points ago

I haven't seen a bus like that since Nam... Tottenham.

[–]Packersville 0 points1 point ago

IS THAT SWEET TOOTH?!

[–]Keevtara 48 points49 points ago

[–]Pesqueeb 15 points16 points ago

So many subreddits.........

[–]Keevtara 3 points4 points ago

I know.

A friend of mine has five accounts, each with a different genre of subreddit that it's subscribed to. One is for television shows and movies, another is for porn subreddits, and so on.

[–]IBetThisLoginIsTaken 34 points35 points ago

A fried of mine, yeah right...

[–]Digimoz 1 point2 points ago

That has a surprising amount of posts.. :S

[–]Lunchbox2208 1 point2 points ago

Thank you for this.

[–]latenightmonkey 10 points11 points ago

WELCOME TO HACKNEY

[–]Atlaas 4 points5 points ago

That bus was in Tottenham.

[–]XshibumiX 54 points55 points ago

Before HellRider had his own bike, he took the bus.

EDIT: As vivvav pointed out, I meant Ghostrider. Cage movies are shit and very forgettable. Apologies.

[–]vivvav 19 points20 points ago

I think you mean Ghostrider.

[–]XshibumiX 0 points1 point ago

ha! Yes, you're exactly right. The movie looked like a steaming pile of shit so I never actually watched it. Thanks for the fix

[–]vivvav 2 points3 points ago

I mod /r/comicbooks. It's my job to know these things.

[–]lethargicwalrus 27 points28 points ago

something something Nicolas Cage

[–]Dynasty471 8 points9 points ago

something something r/onetruegod

[–]MrNotSoPleasant 4 points5 points ago

He would have been better before, that's for sure.

[–]olivermihoff 3 points4 points ago

Love how the headlights are on, so that you know it's coming...

[–]Blunkus 1 point2 points ago

oh yeah, cuz Raising Arizona was shitty and forgettable...

[–]Sonums 40 points41 points ago

Yes, hilarious... ಠ_ಠ

[–]dethkarz 2 points3 points ago

They float, they all float down here....

[–]forevercabron 2 points3 points ago

...and when you're down here, YOU'LL FLOAT TOO

[–]allroy75 1 point2 points ago

Came to say something similar. The title totally made me think of Stephen King, then when I saw the pic I thought "this should have been in a sk movie". Maybe maximum overdrive.

[–]CRSthatoneguy 6 points7 points ago

I am the Dread Pirate Roberts. There will be no survivors.

[–]vivvav 4 points5 points ago

/r/bitchimabus comes to mind.

[–]Dr_Haus 12 points13 points ago

it looks like there's a sillhouette of a dinosaur in the top left window

[–]12831921241243 25 points26 points ago

Why is this in /r/funny ?

[–]poop_dawg 3 points4 points ago

Yeah I feel like I'm missing out on some inside joke or news or something...

[–]suo 2 points3 points ago

It's from the London Riots last year. Tottenham to be exact the same area where the Riots started and where Mark Duggan was shot by the police.

[–]poop_dawg 2 points3 points ago

Oh... well that sounds awful. Any idea why someone would think this picture is funny?

[–]suo 2 points3 points ago

Because they don't realise the context. You see it all the time on Reddit. I don't think anyone was hurt in this incident; it was an empty bus as far as I know.

[–]LordRuler 4 points5 points ago

Was expecting Blitzcrank

[–]The_Alex_ 6 points7 points ago

I don't understand why this is funny? It's just a burning bus.

I'm not saying I'm offended, I just don't see any humor in it. Is there something I'm missing? Is OP trying to imply that the bus is moving towards the cameraman?

[–]thedooze 6 points7 points ago

Real life Twisted Metal?

[–]Cappin_Stabbin 4 points5 points ago

Dark Tooth was the bane of my twisted metal 2 experience as a child. Fuck his laugh.

[–]LordBroseidon 9 points10 points ago

Harry, da fuck you do to the knight bus?

[–]lecramstar 4 points5 points ago

I really don't get the joke, someone care to explain? (Am I missing a reference?)
