Daingean's William Edgill avoided one of the attacks on the morning of July 7th 2005.
An Offaly man is recounting a life saving moment during the London terror attacks 21 years ago - when he missed one of the targeted buses.
Daingean's William Edgill had been on the way to a dental appointment on the morning of July 7th 2005.
He realised he'd forgotten his phone and returned to his flat by which time he heard one of the bombs detonating in Tavistock Square.
Coordinated attacks were carried out on the city's transport network that day, killing 52 people and injuring over 700 others.
Mr Edgill says he was able to see the devastation for himself:
