Commuters were stopped in their tracks as they spotted a full-size London bus – which had been folded in half.



The single decker, which measures six metres by 6.2 metres, appeared to have been folded upwards at a 90-degree angle with its rear end nearly six metres off the ground in Old Street, Shoreditch.



Created by artist Caspar Philips, the vehicle has been built from a host of recycled materials from real London buses.



LED lights, windscreen wipers, wing mirrors, chrome wheels and tyres were used to make the identical mind-bending replica.



The art project was commissioned by Samsung to mark the release of its Galaxy Z Fold6 and Flip6 smartphones, which come with a range of new features including Galaxy AI and is widely available now.
