"Passengers stopped a charter bus from plunging nearly 200 feet off a bridge after the driver collapsed, apparently from a heart attack.
The bus was near the top of the Sunshine Skyway bridge Wednesday afternoon when Thomas Grove, 61, fell out of his seat, passengers and authorities said.
It slammed into the 3-foot concrete wall, which blocks vehicles from tumbling into Tampa Bay. Three of the five passengers jumped out of their seats and ran toward the front."

Daaayyyuuumm!!
Have any of you ever driven over that bridge? I have, and I think *I* would have a heart attack if the vehicle I was in slammed into the wall like that. 3 feet isn't very high to a bus.
Some quick thinking and good hands on the passenger's part.
