Caught on Tape Madness

I just took a quick look on youtube to see if anyone had uploaded any interesting videos related to our favourite transit system, and lo and behold! I haven't checked in a while, so it was quite surprising to find these. Here are 3 WTF Winnipeg Transit moments, caught on tape.

Here is some guy getting randomly beat up by a guy who looks like he just wandered out of a cave:


Not sure what the story is here, but here's a video of a guy getting arrested on the bus:


And finally, here's some awkward video of a girl serenading the 11 Portage passengers in song:

AC/DC idiots singing on the bus

At first I was thinking, "god, what jerks!", that old guy looks really annoyed. But it's a chartered bus! I guess the old guy was an AC/DC fan after all.

Goths! On the Bus!

Here's a little film we made a couple of summers ago, and something no one has emailed me about yet: Goths on the bus!

Weakerthans - Civil Twilight (video)

Here's a video by Winnipeg's The Weakerthans that takes place entirely on a Winnipeg Transit bus. via @ Dailymotion.

80s Winnipeg Transit Video

Here's a cute musical PSA from the 80s that blatantly rips off Yellow Submarine and turns it into a song about how riding on the bus is so great. I think it's kind of funny how the use of the song draws parallels to the psychedelic movie as if they're trying to communicate riding the Winnipeg Transit is akin to the nutzoid characters in the Yellow Submarine movie? Either way, it's very fitting.

Thanks to Clint for the submission.

Transit Shenanigans caught on tape

Here is a video someone shot of a fight erupting on the 43 bus a few weeks ago. It's hard to tell exactly what's going on, but from the comments in the video (I don't suggest you read them unless you need a reminder how awfully racist youtube members are), it sounds like a couple of G's picked a fight with a woman and her kids. The G's were playing loud music, she asked them to turn it down and they refused, so she threw SPAGHETTI at them and they started swearing and hitting eachother. After she tried to get off the bus, they followed.

Very classy fellas...

On a lighter note, here is someone's cute attempt at making a viral video for their local business, set on the Winnipeg Transit.

I think what gives it away as being fake are the two goths that get on and don't sit together. Come on people, we all know that Goths stick together!
