Dear passangers, fasten your seatbelts and don't look on the left side. If you already did, don't worry, self-dissasembling bus from Saint Petesburg does not fly near us, in fact this is our left wing.

Holy cow. My sisters VW Beetle did this once, too. It was quite fresh out of inspection/repair, and whatever those guys did to the motor, they forgot to pull the screws tight again...
