This is the horrifying moment a balaclava-clad thug smashes in the windows of a London bus as terrified passengers stuck on board film him.

In a clip posted on social media, a masked man appears to use a metal pole to break the front windows of the double-decker at the Bath Road stop in Harlington, west London, at 9pm on Tuesday.

As the vandal moves to the side of the 105 bus from Heathrow Airport he looks directly into the camera and continues to break the side windows.
