Ukraine war, energy crisis, climate change - there is currently plenty of negative news.
This meeting of two jokers is just right.
Regensburg – In the year 2022, the bad news will practically follow each other.
The Ukraine war is followed by gas price explosions, and progressive climate change is followed by one extreme weather event.
But in between there is always good news.
In Regensburg, for example, a courageous lifeguard rescued a woman from the wave pool.
And a video from downtown Regensburg is currently doing the rounds on the internet - it's heartwarming.
Viral video from Regensburg: Two found each other
The video shows a passer-by boldly standing on the street – in the middle of the path of an approaching local public transport bus.
The scene takes place in the middle of Regensburg city center and as a spectator one suspects at first that there will at least be trouble for the young man.
But then a heartfelt spectacle begins: in conjunction with the man's arm movements, the bus slows down - slowly, as if he were actually bringing the bus to a standstill with his own strength.
But it goes on: the bus driver begins to play an active part, imitating the man's movements, and a kind of dance briefly ensues.

Video from Regensburg goes viral: Thousands of people celebrate passers-by and bus drivers
Finally, the man stands with his back in front of the bus and pretends to pick up ropes attached to it.
With these he "pulls" the bus - and of course the driver plays along again, drives slowly and then past the man.
The end of the short interlude - but not without the two jokers giving each other a happily laughing high five through the open bus window.
The surrounding passers-by were amazed at the spectacle that had just happened in front of their eyes.
On Twitter, where the user @Opa_Homie shared the video, there is applause.
"Isn't life full of good people?
We just can't let ourselves be dragged down!!" writes one user.
Many are particularly pleased with the casual, spontaneous reaction of the bus driver and compare the situation with their own hometown.
For @Opa_Homie, the matter is now clear: "Regensburg.
A city with friendly bus drivers,” the Twitter user captioned the video.
A statement that few would disagree with after viewing the video.
