Passersby in Walthamstow today came to the aid of a cyclist who had his leg crushed underneath a double decker London bus. This video shot from a flat above shows how the crowds on the street all coming to the rescue of the fallen cyclist. The voice in the video belongs to the woman recording it who didn’t want to be named.

The 55 year old male who was involved in the accident is currently in a serious but stable condition in hospital. Eye witnesses say his leg was so badly crushed under the wheel of the bus that you could see the bone.
