A video that shows how dangerous escalators can be recently emerged via LiveLeak.
It shows a young girl whose shirt got trapped in the escalator’s belt and dragged her up.
The video was published last week and it did not clarify where the incident happened.
A woman and a man, who are speculated to be the child’s parents, immediately went up the escalator and grabbed her before being dragged all the way up.
