Shocked Escalators

Standing is already a serious difficulty for me....add moving and jolting, and stepping on or off while moving.....not good.

Oh,as a kid I LOVED escalators. I was a daredevil and very active. Climbing to the top of the tree, hanging by one knee from the top of the jungle gym. Yeah, back in the day.

Walking on the highest wall....climbing rock cliffs, jumping from the highest step.

Everything kids do.
Me too, I am exactly the same when I go on escalators, especially the ones that form steps. If they go too fast, I don't go on them at all in case I fall. If I am honest I am terrified on them because of my balance issues now.
