Video Shows Terrifying Escalator Failure, 20 injured.

Your worst nightmare!?

I'm assuming none were killed? I'd say a worse nightmare is being an elevator that plummeted to my death.

@loco145: There's a video of a woman in China who fell into the machinery of an escalator while she was riding with her young son. She managed to push him to safety but she got pulled in and was killed. That's scarier IMHO. Not posting the video because it's basically snuff footage, but anyone who wants to see it can find it pretty easily.

Looked like something at Great Adventure.

Could be the Russians putting their anger by vandalising Rome escalators. Unlucky CSKA Moscow, you are nowhere near the level of Roma :P Just face it, you hooligans!

Too many people at once using the escalators.

I noticed two things, the wine bottles on the ground and a lot of people wearing hoodies.

Props to the one guy smart enough to jump into the middle

Holy shit... I just looked that up. Gone in seconds... I couldn't imagine what was going through her mind...

Yeah, suddenly that bit from Mallrats rings true.

Woah, it's even on YouTube. It's like Gandalf :O

And this is why escalators stay broken. Escalators are assholes
