In a recent news article they said that they have worked out how they managed to get the bus of the cliff
It was reported that all they had to do was drain the tanks so the bus would be lighter at the back end :shock:
There is one problem with that theory, the tanks are at or near the front :shock: :shock:

once the road surface/edge of the cliff came into contact with the underside of the bus it would need a HGV recovery vehicle to pull back onto the road, probably dragging all the pipes, hoses, axle and propshaft off too


hold on chaps, ive had an idea...

The guy that won was on Today on Radio 4 and he explained how he worked it out. This was enough for the people that set the problem so where is there a problem? It's not a really big deal is it? Or is it? Who knows :lol: :lol:
