Can't the escalator like flatten out or something awful, when it's without power?

No, but that would be very funny

You're right they don't flatten but the brake does have to engage to stop it from behaving similarly to a manual treadmill

escalator temporarily slide

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

No, this particular escalator does not include emergency slide mechanism, although this would've helped OP in such troublesome situation.

Wouldn't that take ... like ... power?
