Did you see the news? YouTube star survives horrific bus crash into river? Yes, that's me. Yes, that fire did start the way you're afraid it did. And yes, I do in fact need your ass and the rest of you on the next plane to philly. I know you're recording right now as you said you'd be but get here.

Charlie was in Philly to tour the food scene, her first entry into her new YouTube Red channel, McEats Eats The World! But, as fate would have it, recording didn't even start. They'd been on a bus to Lancaster, the roads were muddy and the bridge they had to cross at one point was slippery. The driver in the car in front of them was drunk and swerving and at one point, they'd veered in front of Charlie's bus. Swerving to avoid a collision caused the bus driver to swerve out of control and go over the edge of the bridge. Landing upside down, the bus sank quickly and Charlie got pinned under the seat, drowning five minutes later. And two minutes after that, reviving in a violent flash of quickly extinguished fire. It was enough for her to work her way out of the seat and out of the bus and moments later, into an ambulance.

There were X-rays and tests and when she was finally left alone, she texted her boyfriend.

She gives it at least eight hours before he shows up and since no one can figure out how she survived without injury, they were keeping her overnight for observation. Lame.
