London bus bomber Hasib Hussain was sweating profusely and looked "nervous and exhausted" shortly before he blew himself up.



Witness Anita Dybek-Echtermeyer told the inquest into the 7/7 attacks she was struck by the 18-year-old's "bad manners".

Hussain killed 13 people when he detonated a rucksack packed with homemade explosives on the No30 bus in Tavistock Square.

He had planned to join his three fellow bombers in attacking a Tube train but was forced to take the bus at King's Cross station when the Underground was closed due to the blasts.
