Sorry if this has been posted earlier, I searched and didn't find anything.
It happened in Taiwan.
[quote]A metro deputy stationmaster fell to his death after a long flood-backing board he was carrying became stuck on the ceiling and pierced through the escalator. The force sent him to the bottom of the escalator shaft and turned it into a giant meat grinder. He was working to test the flood-prevention facilities at the station — a standard operating procedure at MRT stations during typhoon season. The flood-backing boards required two people to carry up using the stairs instead of the escalator.[/quote]

This was actually my biggest fear as a kid, I thought that if I stepped on it wrong It I would get caught in the green glowing centre then get gobbled up

Final Destination anyone?
Final destination much?
Fucking ninja.
being grinded up end-to-end by machinery sounds like one of the worst ways to die
Oh god that's horrible.
wow this thread title is so adorable i was pretty surprised at how messed up the video was
The mental image, Oh god.
He died and it was his own fault..
Damn.

Interesting, I just watched someone die on Liveleak, oh wait its liveleak, the place where you can watch insurgents killing ISAF forces :V
The music and stuff on the video is painfully inappropriate.
This is what can happen if you don't follow proper procedures.
Sucks to be him but it makes a fine example.
I hate escalators. I was always afraid of them, and this really doesn't help.
Holy shit, that's horrible :smith:
Wow, that is a horrible way to die.
I read it as elevator but then saw escalator. That's fucking horrible.
I'm afraid to click the video...
sympathetic and all but he should've carried it horizontally like a normal person
This is why I fucking HATE those escalators with see-trough sides.

It's not NSFW if you ask me. He just falls down and you do not see anything bad.
Still, sucks to be him I guess.
I saw this thread title and thought "Theres gotta be a video", am I sick?

Words to live by.
[QUOTE=Atlascore;32411184]That's pretty fucking terrible.
I didn't know they even had enough power to do something like that.[/QUOTE]
When they can carry 50 people at a time it's kinda obvious that they have the force.

It's not bad, you don't really see him die. All you see him falling through the escalator.

Same here, I would have thought the board would have broken before the escalator did.
Holy shit.
That is really the only way to describe it, he did get eaten by the fucking escalator.
Though I wounder if he could have survived if someone else was there and hit the emergency stop button.
This is why you should always be careful when boarding an escalator.
Everybody told me this would never happen. They lied.
Never going on one of those devil's stairs ever.
Freak accident could have been avoid
