Mao Zhihao was driving on a road in Jiangshan, in China's eastern Zhejiang province on Monday afternoon when an unrelated car crash caused the lamppost to smash into the front of the bus, Sky News reports.
The large blue metal pole shattered the windshield and hit the left side of Mr Mao's body, rupturing his spleen.
"I was pinned down by the lamppost and put the bus into gear instinctively," he said.
"I just wanted to slow the bus down."
He was lucky not be more seriously injured, ducking moments before the pole came crashing through.[/quote]

Smacked, yes. If he didn't dodge, that pole would smash it open like a ripe watermelon.
holy shit
Got a real Final Destination vibe here with the car crashing into that pole that causes it to fall over at the exact time the bus was driving past it.

Nah, I don't think so. It went over his left shoulder.
That guy better go play the lotto while he still has his luck flowing.

Except the article says it ruptured his spleen when it hit him so I don't see how he "dodged" it.

His brain matter did not redecorate the entire bus with a pink tint. He dodged it.

He wasn't killed so it is accurate.
fucking hell, saw another video where another chinese bus driver was killed by flying shrapnel but managed to stop the bus.

Doh, I missed the "dodges death" part some how.

Chinese bus drivers have it pretty rough.

I think you read it wong
My Chinese isn't that good, but from lip reading at about 13 seconds into the video he says "Oh crap, I shit myself".
Dam that pole came out of nowhere like Kapooya.
I don't know, in a single frame he was basically thrown over onto his side, it looked like it got him square in the side of the head regardless.
Why did I read the headline as 'prole'? "Look out, guv'nor, steamer coming your way!"

Well it sort of hit him, so more like it grazed him. Though I wonder what caused the lamp post to topple over, either that car that ran into was pretty large or the they didn't secure into the ground very well.
