Escalator falls can be dangerous. Sometimes you can fall for hours.

In about 14 years that kid is going to be saying the Turkish equivalent of "Hold mah beer and watch this!"

I agree with trustf8. Mom is going to be so proud, after she comes out of her coma.

I agree with Siouxie. The guy that sustained the injuries was the father, when he got home.

Turkish kids are wimps compared to New York kids.

As God as my witness, I thought Turkish boys could fly!

I firmly believe that we are surrounded by Heros. It's just that circumstances have not yet revealed them.

More proof that Turks can't fly.

I found a little girl about that age in a mall at the top of an escalator, no parent in sight. I waited with her until some nice lady came along who took her to security . . .
