Woman Swallowed By Escalator
 

Really sad story..... a panel was left open at the top of the escalator. The woman fell through, the machine pulled her in and she was killed but managed to push her baby son to safety.

China: Mother Fell to Her Death Inside an Escalator but Saves Toddler

yeah i watched the video earlier...crazy :)
they had another incident today also where a kid lost his arm in an elevator

that is a whole lotta fucked up

Fucked up... why did they not push the emergency stop?

There was no time at all. It all happened in about two seconds.
They stepped off the top of the escalator and the metal plate swiveled and the mother and baby fell in. She managed to throw the baby out of harms way before she was sucked into the gears. A lady tried to help, but there was nothing to do.

horrible

Surprisingly peaceful event regarding the woman who died and the women who helped her. Not much drama.

By the way, you can see someone in the downstairs looking for off-switch or something like that.

Damn.....

Just another day in China.

Probably the worst way to die I've seen. Literally like being thrown into a meat grinder. You'd think once a leg went in the gears would have stopped.


I think I'd rather take the Mexican drug cartel chainsaw beheading over that.

Not watching that video.

wow wtf . ..

That
is
Terrible....:Oh crap

Geez,what a horrible way to die,poor lady

funny bitch nico-t didn't complain about this :disgust oh wait....

Me either.

Wow, horrible.

wow the sound must have been a nightmare. i watched it

damn, now i gotta deal with escalator fobia

no, me neither. i cannot understand the mentality of people who do.

grow a pair. there is no gore seen

HOLY COW!! So sad, awesome she was able to save her child.. RIP~~!

Those sort of videos and the sites that delight in showing them are right up your street. Its not a case of "growing a pair" (although you seem to get through life by being a total imbecile rather than actually swinging a couple), its a case of having a little respect for life. A mother dies horrifically, a child is almost killed and is now without a parent and all you can do is dribble out of the side of your simian mouth while pulling pathetically at the limp appendage lifelessly dangling between your legs while gloating at the misery of others. No wonder you are considered totally worthless by anyone that matters here.

Film yourself dying in the most horrific way possible and you'll cheer everyone up. Try to die as slowly as possible so that the rest of the brain-dead chimps who love death videos have a chance to wank off at the sight of your so-called brains dribbling out of your hairy ears.

you are entitled to your opinion. did you watch the 911 video? tell the truth

It is not a snuff film, it is a video about accident.

Extremely sad and shows you that we can go anytime and very unexpectedly.
Live every moment like it's your last... it may be.

That is some fucked up shit. One moment you are riding up to the top of the escalator and the next moment the floors open up and you are falling through the floor and into the gears that run the escalator and being killed.

Think about that the next time you go up the escalator.....

I watched it. Not to laugh at others misfortune, but to remind me to be thankful that I am healthy, live in a country in which I'm less likely to be sucked into an escalator and be a little more careful when driving or maybe even taking escalators.

That was always a fear of mine as a kid. It eating you.

Thats terrible.

Read this on a different news site regarding this story and other deaths related to escalators and elevators:

Is there anything the Chinese won't pirate?

Don't think this will ever get out of my head. I'll see it every time I'm riding the escalator.
Poor kid losing a parent like that.

China mall blamed for woman's death in escalator - BBC News

It turns out that the women standing at the top of the escalator were aware that the panels were loose....

:Oh crap

and then this:

'What many find quite shocking is that since the death in Jingzhou, there have been two reported serious incidents.'

This wasn't a tragic freak accident. This was 100% preventable

I watched the full video. 5 Minutes before that lady fell down the escalator, 2 mall employees almost fell into the same hole when they cover slid under their feet.

They stood around like idiots for a really long time staring at it and did nothing to stop the escalator or warn the people getting on the escalator.

Disclaimer: The video is not graphic, but it is pretty disturbing as you are witnessing someones final moments. No gore or anything but still terribly sad.
