A MAN caused a huge traffic jam by blocking the path of a London bus after missing it, leaving viewers divided.
A clip of the ordeal, posted to TikTok by @nofaceldn, shows the disgruntled pedestrian standing directly in front of the big red vehicle on a busy road.

Traffic can be seen backed up for several hundred meters behind the bus.
Perhaps surprisingly, no car horns can be heard in the video, as drivers seem to wait patiently as the queue lengthens.
After a few seconds of apparently arguing with the man through the windshield, the bus driver opens up the doors to allow him on.
The man then goes to jump on but briefly hesitates, seemingly worried that the driver will set off without him once he moves out of the way.
He then rapidly jumps through the open doors before paying for his ticket, at which point the bus moves off.
The person filming the video is heard saying: “Look at this. Stopping the bus until you can jump on.
“Look at the traffic he’s caused. He’s caused traffic just because he couldn’t get on the bus…look at all the traffic.”
They also jokingly captioned the post: “I know what to do when I miss the bus now.”
Online commenters were left divided over the issue, with plenty heaping criticism on the man.
For example, one joked: “My bus driver would just hit me.”
Another added: “This country is so funny.”
However, others saw the funny side and even agreed with the man.
One person commented: “Sometimes this is needed.”
A second chimed in: “I salute him.”
Some people even said they had used the tactic themselves, with one writing: “I used to run out in front of the bus so it can’t get past me.”
It comes after a driver revealed how he skipped a three-hour traffic jam using a sneaky trick involving a high-vis vest.
Meanwhile, a driving expert revealed how to avoid getting stuck in jams using his top tips.
