        Escort company says she refused their help in Airport What grounds does lawsuit have when person refused help contracted to assist her? PS Most escalators have signs warning about not using them with strollers, baggage carts. Why didn’t this woman use the elevator? Something odd.

        Family is saying she “confused the escalator for an elevator...” how’s that happen? It doesn’t look like anyone pushed her down..she stops at the top of the escalator for a second then falls down

        Why was she traveling alone if she had such vision issues? Last year I rescued a woman suffering from Alzheimer's, wandering alone, after her daughter had left her home alone when she went to work. Take care of your elderly.

        This is absolutely terrifying & the man who dashed back to help her is truly awesome for jumping to action. But I have to wonder how she ended up there?? Why in the world would you get on an escalator in a wheelchair?? Elevator appears right by..

        Sad but family has to take some blame too. They knew her best. They know airports are busy disorganized places. She needed someone she was familiar with to be by her side. This is negligence on her family's part. Airlines can't be trusted to keep baggage safe much less.

        The family should blame themselves but greediness blinds them.

        The video shows her riding her chair towards the escalator knowing she would fall. I'd investigate a scam or a suicide for money gain.

        She drove her own powered chair on to the escalator. She gets the Darwin Award.

        No offense but is the airline really responsible for an unbalanced person?
