NY student in deadly bus crash recalls leaping from window as classmates rescued

A Long Island high schooler in the deadly bus crash in upstate New York recalled the living nightmare of waking to screams — then leaping from a window as rescuers pulled his classmates from the wreckage with “blood everywhere.”

Farmingdale High School pupil Anthony Eugenio, 15, said he “was sleeping” on the way to a band event in Pennsylvania Thursday when he was startled awake by the bus hitting the pavement before tumbling 50 feet down a ravine.

“I woke up, but I didn’t know I woke up — I thought I was in a dream still,” he said soon after the crash that killed two of his teachers and left five students in critical condition.

“I was like, ‘This can’t be real’ … and then I heard everyone screaming.”

Eugenio said he still thought he was just having a nightmare “until I felt the pain in my leg.”
