A video has surfaced on social media, capturing the harrowing moment at a local shopping mall when a lady’s heel got stuck on an escalator, leaving her momentarily stranded at the zenith of the moving staircase.
The incident, which was caught on camera, has garnered widespread attention, amassing over three million views within a short period.
The lady, elegantly dressed in a striking blue dress, was ascending the escalator when she suddenly realized her heeled footwear was caught in the escalator’s mechanism.
Acting swiftly, she managed to free her foot from the precarious situation, but to her dismay, her shoe remained firmly trapped in the escalator’s machinery.
As the footage unfolded, concerned onlookers gathered around the distressed lady, attempting to aid in the safe removal of her footwear.
Despite their collective efforts, all attempts to dislodge the stuck heel proved futile, much to the bewilderment of the spectators.
The viral video has sparked a flurry of reactions on social media platforms, with netizens sharing their thoughts and empathizing with the lady’s unfortunate predicament.
