Fast Moving Escalator Malfunction = Mass FAIL. An escalator in Washington DC jumps into HIGH GEAR.... pile up at bottom! Brakes were the cause of the situation.

I loved the guy standing there in the high visibility jacket and hard hat that was just like, " Uhhh, am I supposed to be doing something about this."

Yup. Stairs are empty and escalator is full. When stairs are empty i take the stairs 100% of the time. It's faster then the fatties that just sit and ride the escalator down.
But when there are old people trying to take the stairs down then you might as well take the free ride down rather then the stress from wanting to kick the back of their head so they`ll move down the stairs faster. but i`m just nitpicking
