Boy gets stuck between escalator and wall 😳

Can you believe a simple ride on an escalator could turn into a near fatality? 😳

I can guarantee he won’t make that mistake again

(July 2022) Boy In China Gets Head Stuck Between Escalator & Wall, Quick-Thinking Witness Saves Him. According to HK01, the incident happened on 24 Jun in Xinyang, a city in the Henan province. CCTV footage shows the boy riding an escalator with his sister. Then, he leans over the handrail with his arm stretched out, as if wanting to grab something. Some reports also said that he just did it out of “curiosity”. However, as the escalator went up, his head became stuck in the narrow gap between a wall and the handrail, twisting his body into a terrifying-looking angle. Upon noticing his distress, his sister quickly tried to pull him out, but to no avail. Thankfully, a male passer-by in a white shirt rushed in to push the emergency stop button. He then notified the authorities. Firefighters soon arrived and freed the boy by tearing down the outer layer of the wall and removing the escalator handrail. Full Article:

If Biden’s policies were a human

Wow, the guy in the mask was super-quick to stop the escalator. Could've been worse.

Sometimes I wanna be the fairy on the shoulder saying NOW WHY would you think to do something this stupid before it happens 🤯🤕🥴

“seemed like a good idea at the time”

@africaupdates Escalators are run by electric motors. No one thought to make it run in opposite direction after it was stopped by changing the phase ?
