Yes, it may be possible. How do you now if it is possible or not if you never tried? I know that in the movie it wasn't real, but you never know! It might actually be possible!

No I dont think that a bus could really do this, and I also watched the making of Speed. They used special effects for much of the movie.

They had major problems jumping that bus on a film set. If you watch the back of the bus almost doesn't make it and that was not by design. There is no realism in the film, just a good flick to go and see for action.

why should one worry about all the logics involved in seeing the film, After all, we see movie as an entertainment medium, The realism involved is zero percent, Becoz to jump such a gap, the speed with which the bus must travel should be more than 200 k's per hour.

no i don't think that can happen, i think even a car can't jump like that but they really have shown in a really nice way and i think they were able to put some realism in that scene, although it was not possible but still they were really good. thank you.

Speed - Keanu Reeves at his best.
There is no way a bus could actually do that in real life due to it being so big and heavy. It probably wouldn't even make it halfway like it did in the movie. The movie was just added effects to make it look like it did or could.

there is no way the bus would make it in real life. I think they tried it on mythbusters
