Maybe Bertha Butt & the Butt sisters got on at the same time, and there were no other seats, 'cept on the starboard side of the bus? ;D
*scratches head*. How do you tip a bus inside the garage?
I knew one day it will happen. Ever since i was a youngster i will be scared when i see these things make a sharp turn. But was it moving or something?
Did anyone catch this on Mythbusters?

It's their attempt to prove or disprove what happened in the movie "Speed" where Keanu Reeves character had riders move from one side of the bus to the other while hurtling around curves at 55 mph. They proved that not only does it work, preventing the bus from rolling over, but also that the bus won't roll when the load was evenly distributed. To get it to flip they had to add weight to the roof to raise the center of gravity.

HA! Thats another way to get rid of a bus.
Oops - look like 2 of the lifts went up...and the other ones didn't follow suit! Or the bus was misplaced, lol.
