BBC NEWS | England | One dead and 44 hurt in bus fall
Sounds bad
The double decker collided with a car before falling about 45ft from a bridge over the River Churnet near Alton Towers theme park just before 1800 BST.

IMHO - Big difference between innocent people who did no more than take a bus journey for a day out and those 'good lads' who choose to steal a car, drive like loons then kill themselves due to their actions, their choice.

Could I just make one thing clear here:
If those same two twocers had died in this coach crash, (rather than by crashing the car they stole) it would be a tragic accident. ANYONE dying through something they had no control over and were an innocent party in, is ALWAYS a tragedy.
The difference is that, they were responsible for their own deaths when they stole and crashed the car.
Stupid comments making a joke about someone dying in fear just isn't right on this forum.
Phil_wrx - I take your point about making light in the circumstances you were in there. This is not there, and the comments made while under extreme duress in Bosnia do not work when back home.

Yes I feel sorry for the families involved (more so for the emergency services) in the scumbag twocking crash but and it is a big but THEY WHERE IN A STOLEN CAR 
so its totally different and hard for people to feel sorry for them. If they where nice good caring boys as the family said it wouldn't have happened would it 
Maybe death is not the best punishment to the crime but they will not do it again will they
