You could probs google it and find it pretty readily, something like 'escalator failure reddit' or that. It's like mall footage of an escalator that has motor failure or something and because it's... well really heavy it basically it snaps at some point and just rips down with people just falling into the pit where the inner parts stay underneath.

Oh I think I know that one. Based on the previous comment, I thought it got sent into overdrive and was going hella fast that it may as well be a chainsaw lol

Well no, chainsaw is an exaggeration, I think it's more of an extruder or meat grinder when one gets caught in it. Thaaaaat one is nsfl and will forever remain a blue link đŸ˜Ŧ

I think the engine driving the escalator can't speed it up much, but yes it's a hell if breaks don't operate properly
