It actually never stopped. People just kept piling down on top of me. And the thing kept rolling so it kept sucking my foot in further and further so that my toe literally got stretched out a couple of inches when it broke. And everyone around me was in such a state of panic that they didn't think (nor did I) to hit the STOP button which was about 2 feet away from where I was laying SCREAMING. And I should note I was wearing really durable black leather flats which were apparently stuck flapping in the bottom of the escalator that they STILL chose not to stop while I was in an ambulance on my way to the ER.
I should also add..
