A huge assortment of abandoned buses in a random field have been explored by TikTok adventurers, and the footage they got is almost apocalyptic.
The spooky collection of rusting and decaying vehicles was discovered in an unknown location in Ireland, with seemingly dozens of vintage buses and coaches left in a heartbreaking condition.
Among the finds included a number of old fire engines lined up next to each other.
All of the windscreens and most of the windows seem to have been smashed in, while the paintwork has dramatically rusted away in post-apocalyptic-looking scenery.

The very start of the video also shows a row of eight vintage blue and white school buses, before a strikingly beautiful yellow van with “CIVIL DEFENCE” emblazoned across the front shows signs of browning.
All of its doors are permanently wedged open, and the Civil Defence Ireland logo can be seen on one of the doors. Inside, there is a huge metal structure which is placed where people used to sit.
The organisation was established in 1951 in response to the threat of nuclear war posed by the atomic bomb after World War Two.
Nowadays, it helps provide aid, assistance and relief in times of emergency or natural disaster, although they’ve clearly had some vehicle upgrades since this van.
The video then weaves between a light blue bus – which once served route ’72’ somewhere – and a white bus. The grass and flowers have grown so high that they are almost touching the windscreens, or what remained of them.

The brave urban explorer boards the 72 bus, and shows the floor to be a mouldy green colour, although the seats still have the original cloth still firmly on.
There are adverts too on the walls, although these are ineligible.
The dumping ground may come as a shock to some after reading the Irish Government’s “circular economy” plans to reduce the amount of materials used to build things in an attempt to protect nature as part of its climate change fight.
It said: “The transition away from fossil fuels and energy efficiency measures can only address 55 percent of our emissions. The remaining 45 percent comes from making things.”
In letting old vehicles rot away in fields, it seems as if new vehicles will be made using virgin materials, rather than reused materials from old ones.
