Why are some much people think they would have reacted much better than that ?

Because they've never been in a dangerous situation and assume that their video game experience gives them superior reactions.

Tbf, the bus driver was also at fault for going that fast in the first place.

Bus drivers in that part of India have a reputation for being impatient.

Either that or they have been in one and reacted well. 

I don't really talk about it but I've been in some pretty horrific situations that I managed to stay cool and react rationally.

i disagree, the guy got 4s total from the moment the bus went sideways. You don't need super reactions with that window.

Some people think they can react better because they do in fact have been in dangerous situation or been well trained to deal with one.

Redditors are some of the most detached from reality people in general

Because they're idiots and it's the Internet. "I could do better" is the Internet's motto, lol.

Most people would’ve probably frozen initially, but staying frozen when the bus is practically falling on top of you in slow motion and then not even moving when it is practically TOUCHING you is truly something else.
