Two foolish youths hitched a free ride on a London bus by clinging on to the back.

The pair managed to hold onto the rear of the red, double decker Routemaster at speeds of up to 19mph.

They held on for over 22 seconds as the bus motored down a busy High Street packed with other road users.

One was clad in dark trousers and blue coat with a black rucksack on his back and the other was clad grey joggers, a hoodie and a black jacket.

They were captured on camera of a motorbike travelling behind in Camden, north London yesterday (6 Jun).

The speedometer on the bike shows how fast the bus was going as the idiotic pair risked injury if they fell off.

The Number 31 bus was travelling along Camden High Street heading to White City.

Local Christine Ring fumed: “Idiots.”

Morris added: “And then they would say it wasn’t their fault if they fell off and were crushed.

“Mental.”

Adam said: “London was never like this before.”

But another said: “****Me and my mates used to hang off a milk float.

“It’s down to them lads to hold on tight, they took the challenge.”

It comes after another teen in flip-flops was spotted grabbing onto a bus in Hayes, west London, on 13 May, as reported by NeedToKnow.

The Met Police has been approached for comment.
