    Just remember, the chance of an escator malfunctioning is very rare, plus most escalators have a failsafe mechanism that will stop the escalator when something gets stuck in it at the top or bottom (I speak in experience)

      @@Unfunnybozo10 My shoelaces got stuck at the top of an escalator once, the escalator did an emergency stop and didnt go on until the engineer turned it on again with the key. So the chance of actually getting in an accident with an escalator are pretty small.

      The chance of someone getting killed on an escalator is very rare. Most injuries come from people not riding correctly. Shit happens sometimes that is nobody's fault. Just like any other mechanical form of transportation things break sometimes due to unseen problems but I wouldn't worry about it..

    It'd be nice if escalators had belts beneath the actual stairs so if one gave way it would still be held up on the belt beneath it and nobody can fall through. Because of the escalators' mechanics, have the belt beneath not move with the stairs but sit underneath them in place. I think that and having a more secure plate at the top also with something in place underneath it would be a better idea too. Possibly the best idea a person can have: just make the maintenance crew take better care of them, especially those in China.
    Edit: Aside from pressing the red button, I don't think there's much of a solution for handling a malfunctioning escalator speeding up. Especially since not all escalators have them...looking at you, China.

    5:19 - One of the most common faults with elevators (lifts) is that the brakes fail, but that means they fall UP, not down.
    The counterweight is still attached, and usually weighs about the same as a fully-loaded elevator car, causing the car to go UP and hit the top floor mounts.
    It's extremely rare for the cables to fail, and all modern elevators have failsafe brakes and other mechanisms to stop the car falling anyway.
    Unless you're in the movie "Speed", obviously.

    I never realised how often this happens and you don't think about people dying from it, injured yes, but dying 😩 . I was thinking I'll take the stairs, but if there's too many stairs my legs will hurt , so I'll take the lift , then at the end of this video it goes on about how to survive a malfunctioning lift! 😱 I can't win 😁

      I guess it's all about other people around you not being total assholes so you can avoid injuries that don't need to happen. Because people can be impatient sometimes, which can cause accidents. Just please be safe.

    That’s why I’m uncomfortable to go on escalators because I’m afraid that I might get hurt on one or worst get killed by one but my dad wants to go on the escalator and I prefer to do elevators or normal stairs
