Ryan Hamilton: A Joke About "Feeling Like You Got Hit By A Bus"

**Ryan Hamilton** (0:05)
I was hit by a bus. Some of these jokes don't have transitions. It's very weird to say you got hit by a bus. People go, what do you mean you got hit by a bus? A bus hit me. I truly meant it literally. It's kind of physics after that. And I didn't want a tragedy to happen to me. But once it happened, I did want the empathy of a tragedy, just to be honest. But I realized with time that getting hit by a bus is not a tragedy, it's a comedy. And I can prove it. If someone says I got hit by a car, people will go, oof, I'm so sorry. But if someone says I got hit by a bus, people will go, oof.
How did you not see it? I mean, they're so big. It hit me, I didn't hit it. And why did you take the side of the bus so quickly?
I've only met a few people who've been hit by a bus, and I only met them since I was hit by a bus. Because once you say you've been hit by a bus, people come out of the wall and go, I was also hit by a bus. And we're family now. What kind of bus were you hit by?
I met this one guy who got hit by a double-decker tourist bus in New York City. I'm even laughing at that. I mean, that's hilarious. On the hierarchy of buses, that's up there. That guy wins. But so do those tourists, because what an authentic tour that was. How was your tour? It was so real. We hit a guy. I don't know. How do they afford to do that every time?
It seems like a common accident, because we reference it all the time. Once you've been hit by a bus, you'll begin to notice this. People say stuff like, you gotta live your life. You don't know. You might walk out of your house tomorrow. Did I make that up? I mean, it's just the most easily accessible hypothetical death. There are so many ways to die. And I'm here to tell you, live your life. Because, I don't know, you might get hit by a bus. That's what happened to me. Here's one. People go, oh, I feel tired and achy. I was out so late. I feel like I got hit by a bus.
Do you feel like you got hit by a bus? I felt like that one time.
It was that time that I got hit by a bus.
By the way, it doesn't go the other direction. I wasn't laying in front of the bus going, I feel tired, you know? You don't get hit by a bus and go, I feel like I got hit by a bus. You know immediately. I mean, there's just so much evidence. It's really hard to deny. People go, I thought we were friends, but then you went and threw me under the bus. Now in my experience, it's really difficult to get under. It kind of ejects you out away from the bus. And also getting someone low enough and throwing them. I mean, the timing alone is absurd. Am I wrong? Watch Ryan Hamilton, This Just Hit Me, only on Netflix.
