THE OVERCROWDED BUS

Once upon a time a man set off home from his day centre, and on boarding a bus found what he wasn't expecting - morbid overcrowding.
In fact it was so overcrowded that people ended up mounted on top of one another.
This led to fights, and in one fight a man was thrown along the gangway and ended up on top of a man's head.

200 people crowded onto the bus only meant for 78.

Because of the malignant overcrowding people often went past the bus stop they were supposed to get off at.
Only the topmost people were able to get off the bus, that is those at the top of the pile, but had to escape through the windows because it was virtually impossible to reach the door, due to people lying on top of each other.

Loads of people were buried under each other making it difficult to breathe.

Not able to stand it any longer some people collapsed the floor and left the bus through the floor, crawling underneath until they came out at the other end of the bus - the first case of it's kind of an underfloor exit on the bus.

It was the councillor Jimmy Gasbag who made sure as many people as possible should get on the bus.
