Seriously dudes, why on earth would someone build an escalator and not let it lead somewhere? Saw this in the mall today, and honestly, I'm just so mad. Served absolutely no purpose. And why no warning signs at least? One might end of tumbling down. Poor design gets my goat, everytime!

Bro, that's called a 'Vanishing Escalator Effect'. Urban legend says if you ride that escalator on a full moon night, you'll be teleported to the closest Starbucks. Just kidding, I have no idea why that's there! But yeah, it's freaking dangerous there's no warning sign or something. Stupid mall designers.

This might seem like a 'crappy' design, but there could be a multitude of reasons why this is so. Maybe construction was abandoned halfway, due to budget constraints or litigation, and no one bothered to rectify it. Perhaps it was supposed to lead somewhere and the original design plans changed unexpectedly. Or, as crazy as it sounds, maybe it's a poorly thought out art installation. However, the lack of warning signs is indeed a gross oversight and a safety hazard.
