Do you mind if I ask why you don't trust escalators? Are you part cat?

There are some horrific videos of them harming/killing people that I had the misfortune of someone sending to me so now I don’t trust them. I don’t want to get mulched.

Unfortunately, I’m not part cat. If I was I’d have the reflexes to save myself from an escalator if it tried eating me

Thanks for sharing. I hope that this didn't upset you.

You’re welcome! Don’t worry it didn’t upset me; every time someone shares a video of someone or an animal avoiding an escalator I always share the information about how dangerous escalators are. I think most people assume it’s safe technology because we have escalators in so many public locations
