The Nairobi 'matatu' industry is notorious for its unforgiving chaos.

It is a scene of theatrics, sometimes life-threatening, where passengers are often left to their own devices amid the 'vrooming' turbulence.

Barely a month ago, a passenger riding a Super Metro 'matatu' tragically died after allegedly being pushed from the moving vehicle.

However, in a complete contrast to this tragic incident, a Friday evening act by a matatu crew saved a woman's life after a near death experience.
