This is the horrifying moment a Just Eat courier stumbled head first into an oncoming bus after he fell off his bike in Cardiff.

Filmed on June 2, Joseph Nicholson is seen falling off his bike and hitting his head after making a left turn off the main road.

After leaning on the wall for over a minute, Nicholson takes a few short steps before losing consciousness and tumbling into a road where he collides with the bus.

The courier told Newsflare: "I felt the need to lean against the wall because I could feel myself blacking out.

"I was KO'd on my feet doing the chicken dance. My body decided to have a day off and take me into the road where I go toe to toe with a Cardiff bus.

"I've come away from it with a concussion, a cut to my neck and soreness throughout my body as if I've been hit by a bus!

"I am so, so lucky and can't help but feel there is an angel on my shoulder. The bus was genuinely worse off than me.

"I am hanging up my boots as a courier after about 1700 hours of cycling this past year as I can't help but feel the universe wants me elsewhere."

Bike courier falls off bike as front wheel gives way under wet and slippery metal ground cover. Gets to feet but blacks out and stumbles in to oncoming bus head first. Gets away with a concussion, cuts and bruises - a miracle really. This happens outside the Principality Stadium, Cardiff - the Home of Welsh Rugby - freeze-frame the moment of impact and the courier hits the bus with rugby tackle like precision!

So yesterday I fell off my bike outside Tiny Rebel due to a wet and slippery metal ground cover, hit my head (due to lack of helmet - pls I know), got up without realising I'd hit my head - only memory of this point is feeling a pain in my thumb - I can then remember putting my bike on its saddle to sort the chain out. Then I felt the need to lean against the wall because I could feel myself blacking out. In hindsight I should have sat down to prevent what happened next 'cause I was KO on my feet doing the chicken dance. My body decided to have a day off and take me in to the road where I go toe to toe with a Cardiff bus.

I've come away from it with a concussion, a cut to my neck and a soreness throughout my body as if I've been hit by a bus...

I am so so lucky and can't help but feel there is an angel on my shoulder. The bus was genuinely worse off than me.

I think it is a good story - lots of couriers suffering these days
