England. A group of children were travelling on an open- production
top bus which was hit by a sports car. The children were
thrown from the top of the bus. Fortunately, they landed damage
on soft grass and no one was hurt. The driver of the
sports car was arrested for dangerous driving. MARK /6

stuck in the wires. All the couple had to do was stay
there, hanging ten metres above the ground, until
firemen came with special equipment to rescue them.
Then there was the Australian plane which was flying
at 9,000 metres when a large hole appeared in the side
of the plane. The pilot stayed calm and quickly brought
the plane down to 3,000 metres, where it was possible
for the passengers to breathe normally. When the plane
landed in Manila and they saw the size of the hole, some
of the passengers were so scared they felt sick.
