"Please calm down! Don't move !! ' the command of their coach.
They were unable to calm. They were flooded with what will happen to them.
The bus they were riding in lost its brakes. When the driver encountered a large truck, the bus driver avoided it but he could not control the driving until it went straight to the edge of the cliff.
Their coach called for help. The concern in the face of the coach was also obvious because they were on the edge of death.
"Ahhh!"
They all shouted when the bus they were staying moved.
"Calm down! Don't move!" the coach shouted at them.
But they did not do what their coach said when the bus moved again and it continued to fall into the cliff. The bus collided with rocks that caused the bus to bounce and shake.
Loud shouts could be heard inside the bus! Everyone inside was sweating and they did not know what to do. They panicked and did what they could to save themselves.
Soon, the bus fell off on the cliff. It exploded. All of them have lost consciousness due to the force of the impact of the bus crash.
