Today in cringeworthy viral videos: a 30-year-old man in a pink polo shirt can be seen attempting to slide down one of the barriers between escalators at the Angel tube station in London. As you can expect, the stunt did not go as planned. David Bailey, who shared the video on social media, told Express that the jokester, who appears to be holding a drink in the footage, managed to walk away from the disaster with just minor scrapes and bruises.
London Tube officials were obviously not amused, and condemned the prank to The Evening Standard.
