Bus driver dubbed 'spiderman' after dangling from roof to collect fares
- 6 years ago
A bus conductor has been nicknamed 'Spiderman' after he was seen dangling from the roof to collect fares from passengers.
The driver of a packed coach in Manila, Philippines, was prevented from manoeuvring his way down the aisle because of the number of people onboard.
He then clambered on top of the plastic seats and ducked under the yellow handrails for support as he leant across to passengers to collect their change.
The unusual scene was captured by passenger Daniel Mark who was travelling home from Makati City to Quezon City during rush hour last Friday on September 21.
Daniel said: ''It was started to rain outside so everyone piled into the bus. I've never seen anything like this before.
''The conductor was like Spiderman the way he was manoeuvring his way along the roof. I suppose it's the only way he could get around but I don't think it was safe.''
The conductor spent 15 minutes clambering around the packed bus as he collected the fares from commuters.
Daniel added: ''He has some serious skills. I just thought it was so unusual and funny.''
