Oh my god, that's horrible. :sad:

Very tragic :(

Yep, imagine a kind of meat grinder effect.

-shudders-

Imagine just going to a mall with your mum, her arm around you and then in a matter of seconds, she's gone forever :sad:

me

If I was one of those women that would honestly scar me for life. :worry:

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?!!!

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.

:worry:

Beyond recognition for sure it's like a meat grinder under there.

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.

the blood is just like *lets just go out the mouth!*

I hope that was just a joke or something, it's ridiculous how something like this happened.

I'm sorry in advance.

good-****ing-bye

:worry:

I've now watched that Elisa Lam video and yeah I'm not sleeping tonight

Haven't seen the video, but I don't use them or lifts because I hate them

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 :(

How do you guys travel around London? escelators are unavoidable on the underground?
