# Real life British 'man of steel' gets hit by bus, walks off into bar with minor injuries

*A 53-year-old British man, Simon Smith miraculously survived after a bus collided into him, walking away with minor injuries. *

A 53-year-old British man, Simon Smith, miraculously survived after a bus collided into him from the back, walking away with only minor injuries. 

The incident happened in Reading, a town in England, and a video of the horrific accident was captured on a CCTV, reports The Coverage.

In the video, the bus is seen mounting a kerb and crashing into the man, who is thrown forward by the sheer impact. 
 
 The bus also hit the shopfront of a nearby building, leaving the site littered with debris. 

However, the man stood up not long after and walked calmly into a bar in the building. 
 
 The co-owner of the pub, Mr Daniel Fraifield, told BBC South Today: "I think (Mr Smith) pretty much got up, brushed himself down and then an ambulance came and took him to be checked."
 
 He added: "(Mr Smith) got looked over and didn't have any lasting injuries -- but he's covered in scrapes and bruises. He then got released from the hospital and I think he just went for a pint to relax."
