RIP Mitch

Came here to find a Mitch Hedberg reference; was not disappointed

[–] Karcinogen@discuss.tchncs.de 18 points 6 months ago

I very much appreciate the correct use of POV.

Can't the escalator like flatten out or something awful, when it's without power?

[–] bonn2@lemm.ee 7 points 6 months ago (1 children)

No, but that would be very funny

[–] Lesrid@lemm.ee 3 points 6 months ago

You're right they don't flatten but the brake does have to engage to stop it from behaving similarly to a manual treadmill

escalator temporarily slide

[–] GrievingWidow420@feddit.it 5 points 6 months ago

No, this particular escalator does not include emergency slide mechanism, although this would've helped OP in such troublesome situation.

Wouldn't that take ... like ... power?

[–] lugal@sopuli.xyz 10 points 6 months ago (1 children)

If only there were emergency stairs...

"Sorry for the convenience."

It's clearly fake, it's the inside of a building and lights are on.

How would you fake a photo like this! There clearly is no movement, no doubt about that!
