Video: Would you take this wild bus ride?
A while back I shared this video featuring what many consider to be the most dangerous road in the world.
I asked readers if they would feel comfortable travelling that road, and the responses I received ranged from "Not on your life!" to "In a heartbeat!".
Today's video features a virtual bus ride on one of India's narrowest, and most dangerous one-lane mountain roads.
Personally, I enjoyed this video, primarily because of the driver's laid-back and nonchalant attitude as he deftly maneuvered the bus around extremely short curves and along stretches of road that were barely even wide enough for the truck to pass through without tipping off the side of the mountain.
Would I take this bus ride if I had the opportunity? I'd have to say the answer is a hard no.
How about you? Would you enjoy taking such a "thrilling" ride? To find out, watch the video and see what you think.

I’ll pass, because that would not work out well. High fatality rate. Well, going over the Andes on a bus is much the same here in Ecuador. Landslides are common. Drivers often race to stay ahead of the bus behind them to pick up passengers waiting at the side of the road.
Rick, I think the alternative might be vertical and downward.
