Broken escalator leads to a crisis

A friend found this wonderful video in an article by Renskee Visscher at TEDx Maastricht, who notes:  "It’s an exaggeration of our dependency on modern technology… at least I hope it still is."

If you can't see the video, click here.

  2. Heh - just heard a line from comedian Mitch Hedberg this weekend. He explained "An escalator can never break; it can only become stairs."

    Maybe if there was an app for that..

  3. This is what people are like when their cars are broken too... they've lost the ability to get around by foot, bus, or bike - and probably can't even figure out where to go without a GPS.
