An elderly lady in a shopping mall made the mistake of leaning on the moving escalator handrail before stepping onto the moving steps. You’d expect her to just fall, but up she goes! This security footage is from somewhere in Russia. Since she moved out of camera range, we can only hope that her companion got her pulled back in, or at least that she made it to the top alright. If my youngest daughter saw this, she'd have to try it out on our next trip to the big city. -via Daily Picks and Flicks

Yeah, toughened glass is an interesting material. I learned about it when researching Prince Rupert's Drop for Theo Gray's 7 Mad Science Experiments You Can Do At Home But Probably Shouldn't a while ago.

Well, due to the fact that it's safety glass it won't cut skin (i've held a handful of those 'shards'...it's like squeezing Lego bricks). I think his ego's in more pain ;)
