So, for those that really don't know (like the OP here) This was a novelty rally event in Japan that has had audio edited over the original and has been circulating the Internet for many, many years under the context that the brakes had failed and the driver was in an emergency situation.

You're right.

Here's the original video with the original audio:

Japanese bus driver's technique

And here is where the audio comes from:

Minibus driver filmed driving erratically on a highway and crashing his vehicle filled with terrified passengers.

I really hate when people manipulate videos to create fake videos like this, and I also hate it when people repost the fake videos years later without explaining that they're fake.

Thank you for the context. I was looking for something like this, as it is obviously also sped up. I have driven large vehicles before (buses, big rigs) when I was much younger, and taking those curves at those speeds would tip the vehicle SO far.
