They should have went down by using the other one (it seemed fine?) and stopped people from using the escalator.

That was awful too :worry: No this was some woman who had a psychotic episode in a lift of a hotel and was found dead in a water tank on the roof afterwards. Creepy.

Oh yeah I read about this too... Did you see the video posted of her in the lift?

Did she actually get sucked in?
It reminds me of Lori's death in Final Destination :(
(it was also suggested that someone was tampering with the controls of the lift because the doors wouldn't close :worry:)

Not Jay thinking he'd even fit in that gap.
I saw this on reddit ages ago, The little girl/boy will be scarred for the rest of her life seeing the death of her mother like that :(

I've read about it, I haven't seen it though. I don't want nightmares that easily.

Yep, imagine a kind of meat grinder effect.

Horrid thought as well, but what kind of body would they even be able to drag up? And her poor kid..
Why didn't one of the workers press emergency stop?!!!

16-08-2015, 05:45 PM
Why the hell wasn't it closed off when the loose panel was noticed, though? It's even worse because it could have been prevented.

You know, I always get a little nervous too when I step off one at the top and the metal always clangs really loudly and shakes.
Now I've seen this. :worry:

It says in the comment section the emergency stop is on the celling above the escelator, idk how true that is but health and safety is very relaxed over there.

Oh I have seen that before. That story always creeps me out and I still firmly believe she didn't kill herself.
I rarely use escalators or lifts, much prefer the stairs. There again accidents can happen anywhere, even on stairs, but would still rather take my chances with the stairs. That poor woman though, what an awful way to go :(
Amy Jade
16-08-2015, 09:45 PM
How do you guys travel around London? escelators are unavoidable on the underground?
Benjamin
16-08-2015, 09:57 PM
Freak accidents scare but fascinate me. Like this one for example talk about unlucky, If she hadn't run she would have lived

The woman vanishes from view into the gap so you don't actually see anything graphic, but it's still very disturbing since you know what's happening. :sad:

The whole Elisa story freaks me out but I just find it so intriguing and instresting, i'd love to be like a detective on that case, is it still an open case or are they just saying she accidentally went in the tank
Will.
17-08-2015, 08:51 PM
Did she get squashed (I hope not), or did she just get stuck and couldn't breath?
This is disturbing... Someone tell me its not real.

I would imagine she was crushed under the mechanism so would've died from internal injuries or suffocation maybe.

I think it got ruled an accident, but there's a lot of suspicion surrounding the verdict because the water tank roof, when lifted off the second time had to be unbolted by two men because it was so heavy

So I watched this the day before yesterday and I went on a date yesterday. We were on the escalator and she said 'I hate escalators' and I had completely forgotten until she mentioned it and I was like 'Oh. My. God.' in my head. Then I told her what I watched on the internet and we both agreed to go down some normal stairs.

I'm guessing Lily Rabe's character kills a load of people and puts them in water tanks
