Evil escalator finally eats people

[13Gigatons]

The old coot on the mountain tried to warn us but we did not listen.

Yea, saw that on NBC news, you'd think there would be some kind of safeguard to prevent a runaway like that.

looks like those moving stairs were drinking and escalating.

I found it amusing that those people just stood there as the eatillator ate them. Only one person jump over onto the separator section.

 

[PottedMeat]

is there an 'emergency unload' function on all escalators?

I know, it is interesting to watch humanity in times of crisis freeze or accept its doom. I had to laugh a little as those people just stood there accelerating to the bottom. They were moving. But I also at times have a depraved sense of humor.

[Sonikku]

Well that deescalated quickly.

Is this the new maglev bullet escalator everyone is talking about?

On a completely unrelated note: if any of you have not yet seen Mallrats, you are totally missing out.

It looks staged IMO, no way people would be all nonchalant like that and not getting out of the fucking way. Like really, more than one guy would have jumped off had this been real.

I'd say it's related?! I think of that movie every time I see or hear the word Escalator.

"It looks staged". LOL

The more I see this type of stuff the more I am terrified of escalators. Only time I ever see them is when I go down south though. Like in the GTA and stuff. We have a set at the down town mall but they've been turned off for as long as I can remember.
