Reckless teen climbs onto back of bus and clings on one-handed during storm

This is the heart stopping moment a reckless teen clings to the back of an airport bus one-handed during a heavy rain storm.

The dangerous teenager's actions were filmed and posted on TikTok - which shows a single hooded person clinging onto the back of the Skylink service 400 to Edinburgh Airport.

In the alarming footage captured, it shows the moment an Edinburgh youth clings onto a bus travelling on a suburb road.

The dangerous trend has been witnessed lots times in recent years, as multiple locals have been filmed 'surfing' on the back of various Lothian bus services instead of paying to get on.

While several similar videos have captured youths hanging on to the back of buses through the city centre.

This latest individual has chosen to take the extra risk of climbing on while the bus travels on a faster road and during a rain storm.

The TikTok user captioned the video: "Some idiot hitching a ride on the back of the bus the other day in Edinburgh."

The person, wearing a grey jumper and black joggers with a backpack on, is bending down while holding on to the panel on the back of the bus during the act that could have resulted in serious injury to themselves and other road users.

At one point, they are even one-handed on the rear of the bus, with the car behind following closely behind.
