Bizarre CCTV footage has emerged from China of an anxious commuter jumping out of a bus window.

The video, captured on a transport security camera in Henan Province earlier this month, shows the young man looking out of the window before making his unusual exit - after the bus became stuck in heavy traffic.

According to local news, the man decided to take the risk after the bus driver refused his request to open the door when he was running late for work.
