Many years ago (early 80’s)…morning delivery of a small safe, 100 pounds or so, to a shopping mall. Despite signs saying “No Carriages”, I rolled my hand truck with the safe onto the down escalator. Everything was fine until I got to the bottom and the wheels kept rolling backwards and not go over the slight lip, and I had no leverage to push it over the lip. There I was, having to keep walking backwards and trying to figure out how to get the cart to go over the lip. Finally saw a person walking nearby and got them to come over and give it the little tug it needed. Learned a lesson….it would have been a funny video.
