Mainly because it is a short wheelbase European spec bus (like Sean's). Try that with a long wheel base GMC, MCI or Prevost! Good Luck, TomC
I have seen this before. I am pretty sure this is a Neoplan, and, yes, my bus can also do this (although my wife has told me if I ever do that, she's leaving!).
IIRC, this was staged for a European game show, wherein the contestants "bet" whether or not the feat is possible. The inset window in the lower right shows the contestants' reactions as the video progresses.

Would have been a lot more interesting if he just hit the bridge at fifty miles per hour in the rain, and just spun her around.

No power steering and a stick...now that would have been impressive.
The first clip Dallas posted features a bus identical to my own (3-axle Spaceliner, early 80s vintage, with steerable tag) and is from the Neoplan driver training facility. Would love to take the course!
Actually, seeing what these coaches are capable of has given me a lot more confidence while driving.

Sean, I think there is a line that goes like this "Professional drivers on closed course, DO NOT try this at home"!
