It looks like a perfect shaped asteroid to me

I came because I started thinking about that one final destination scene.

Me.. years later

@@irocjared same

The accident where the Chinese woman got pulled into the escalator was completely and totally preventable. However what I think is really way cool is that in 1896 Jesse Wilfred Reno built the first escalator that ever worked. Someone else redesigned it and others came out. In 1899 Otis Elevator Company purchased the patents and built the first commercially successful escalator which was at the Paris Exhibit. The word "escalator" was something that Otis Elevator Company came up with which means "elevator stairs" They took the Latin word "scala" which means stairs, the word "elevator" and crossed the two of them and came with "escalator". In the 1950's the federal court for patents and trademarks ruled it as public domain so that anyone can built one and call it that.

@@edwardcalvert thx for the information

Yep but I love using escalators in airports or wherever I can

Thankfully serious accidents are very rare and whilst there are a fair few hospitalizations for accidents, most of them are preventable by holding the handrail, tying shoelaces, not leaving loose clothes dangling, keeping feet away from the sides, and not bringing anything big or heavy on the escalator

Don't be scared about escalators. More developed countries and/or cities have stricter maintenance requirements.

modern escalators eg Otis and kone are very very safe, if you don't want to tempt fate, keep off the yellow line, then its 99.99999999999999999997% safe

Have been analyzing what can be heard and seen in that video and have found over and over that for one thing, with mall management and employees it appears that they had their priorities and values wrongly placed. Not only that, the mall employees who saw that this woman who was on trouble should have hit emergency stop to shut the escalator down. How about this? That woman could have gone back down against the escalator. That accident was totally preventable. I would encourage you highly to talk to escalator repairmen or people with Otis Elevator Company, Schindler or Kone and they could give you plenty of insight into why something like that could happen and how that could have been prevented as well as proper maintenance and servicing of escalators. No need to be afraid of riding escalators.

Maria Fusha it can be dangerous yes

Maria Fusha 00000y

Laziness knows no bounds. Mostly because it was too lazy to find the boundaries.

😆

VictorKane115 maybe

Using an escalator like a stairs while it is running is still faster then just stairs.

VictorKane115 laban żaba

Nowdays it has a sensor

Yup.....that's what make me sick. ..

Nivan It's still moronic to be scared of them. So they kill 37 people. Guess how many die on REGULAR STAIRS?? 1,600. Scared of planes and NOT CARS, too, huh?? Cars kill 35,000 a year.

ONLY 35,000 a year by cars? Have you seen how they drive in India?

Actually there's an average of 40,000 deaths in American (just America) of just car accidents alone, I don't mind escalators but I am careful and weary when on them

@@CJT3X 👌

Doughnut Hole indeed

shut up, its work

MihalisNavara not maintained properly.

To ensure you won't fall backwards, the handrail is allowed to go 2% faster (not slower) than the steps

no noooo

@@svandertuin151 No offence, but that doesn't make any sense...

​@@Arsaja In terms of tolerances permitted by regulations, it probably makes total sense that maintainers would be allowed to err towards faster movement, for the sake of surely preventing backward movement. Wanting things to run at exact matching speeds might seem like the obvious thing to some, but technology is hard. Tolerances exist everywhere.

Kale Gotico Yep. That video made me sick.

Yep and no it means the woman probably got broken spine and ribs pelvis but she most likely died from suffocation or ribs stabbing her organs or head trauma maybe she died from shock but then unlikely for this

Fay Jiang nah she got crushed look at the distance between what sucked her in and the floor

ToRcKHD well yeah being crushed means broken spine, ribs, suffocation etc :) also there was an article that said she died from suffocation

Nobody cares where you came from or your shitty clickbait site.

You see, the problem is that in many cases, especially when it comes to shopping malls, escalators and elevators are the only two available options. So even if you would like to use stairs, you simply don't have that option.

MayTheyAcheOfficial Again, stupid non-logic. 37 a year on escalators. Ummm 1,600 on REGULAR STAIRS. ummm...

Hail No Hero not everyone is able bodied...

So still using stairs after three years? 😂

It's vanishingly unlikely that you will be killed by an escalator. While we're at it, let's never step outside or fly because it could kill you to go outside /s

Ka Le davai

Mr smarty

Same...

Walther Wenck same. , JUST found out about it and am curious (like any human being) about how she died. was it instant? was it slow? was she grinded or was she crushed?? I'm absolutely sickened by what I have seen

It would be nice to se an animation of an event. So we won’t ride elevators any more.

Justin Santos Maybe but not.me

I've never heard of someone being killed by an animation...

a woman get killed by escalator

the snowman sometimes yes

Several wheels made the rail faster

If you look closely, there appears to be a triangular support attached to the underside of each step. On the tip of the triangle is a red bering/wheel that follows on a support track when the platform of the step is on top. This is what gives the steps their stability while riding.

Cheap escalator, today a escalator stops if the floor plate breaks

Jordan?

Maybe another model, that is more dangerous than this

That's fine, as long as it's for educational purposes only

THIS IS VEHICLE

No, this is escalators working animation /simulator/. Not trap. stupid comment

The third sprocket enables each chain to engage with more teeth to prevent the possibility of chain jump. Without the third sprocket, only a few teeth would fully engage with the chain.

Why wouldn't it be??

B.M.F. Entertainment yup.

B.M.F. Entertainment Final Destination was way more hyped up, drawn out and intentionally bloody...I've yet to see one anything like that dumb movie

Sorry, this 3D model is not available.

Cinema 4D and AutoCad

@@technical3danimation708 Thank you! Did you make it by yourself?

You suck

Definitely me it was not scary until everyone referenced a death, man why would they check how someone died from an escalator?

We use Autocad to create some of the more complex 2d splines, Cinema 4D for the general 3d modelling & animation and Adobe Premiere for adding titles, transitions & audio.

3ds Max.. Maya... Blender. It's incredibly difficult at first and the learning curve is IMMENSE but if you train yourself for a month you'll be able to maybe model a stationary escalator. to actually texture and animate... let's just say this is not an easy thing to do. Gl my friend... Autodesk.com

YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND THIS VIDEO?

VERY EASY VIDEO

no

No, escalator deaths are thankfully very rare. You're vastly more likely to die from being hit by a car or struck by lightning

Put* not out

yea or cover the moving parts closely with external layer or something... this brings me very dark feelings when i imagine what the lady from china had to face when she was slowly consumed by that machine

this is mechinism
