  • Imagine that the lyrics speak of the technological singularity....

  • Wanna see Gary Numan do something cool? Watch iis

  • @manmanguy because he's that guy!

  • @n0wz That is fucking rad if you are telling the truth.

  • The singer looks and sounds an awful lot like the guy who sang "Cars" in the 80's.

  • Now this is waht you call melodramatic. Just get up and walk.

  • night and day

  • "This rules! I could watch this forever." -Butthead

  • excellent!

    

  • you have to wonder why he's still trying to roll downwards after over 3 minutes this guy must have an interesting backstory like he has a pathological fear of staying still

  • This video is a commentary on today's consumerism and how we all fall victims to it, rarely able to escape.

  • This is why they say it's healthier to take the stairs.

  • This video is a favorite on India

  • different n it.

  • 183 people listened to Battles on an escalator.

  • An escalator tried to eat me when I was a child.

  • Some days I feel just like this guy, On the escalator of life.

  • Jesus Gary, help the guy out will ya!

  • Well...the commenters on this page just proved one thing: "do not throw your pearls to swines". Art, I guess, must really be a rare commodity nowadays.

  • I wanna know the name of the microphone store Gary was just at !

  • !!!the orange on the escalator falls forever!!!

  • Is it possible?

    I think this video were made for funny but the guy is so poor person.

    I could see his hand which are blood.

    If i have the situation i try to escape there.

    This is for music video but I just see poor guy I don't listen music.

  • what a stupid thing that a guy can't get up in a such stupid situation.... stupid video... good band thou

  • Ow! Ow! Owww! Ow! Oww! Ow! OwOwOw!

  • Layne Stanley at 2:51

  • maybe if hed go buy something instead of monkeying aroung on the escalater the economy wouldnt suck

  • Was that a Happy Fun Ball bouncing down the escalator?

  • little girl: where are my toys mommy?

    mom: dad is at the mall drunk again..

  • I didnt under stand this video at all

  • @2isekc i did: a guys drunk

  • Comment removed

  • I like the part when Beavis and Butthead made fun of this.

  • He should have taken the elevator

  • best video

    

  • It takes skill to fall down an escalator for four minutes non-stop.

  • Your video is a favorite on Peru

  • Some parent, I don't care which one, should have taught him to fear and respect that escalator

  • Would his items not have gone to the top rather than the bottom?

  • too much cgi. 0/10

  • Comment removed

  • Soccer Dads....

  • Gary Numan is still the man and the main draw of this song in my opinion.

  • The best part was the orange.

  • it would suck to fall down an escalator! i busted my ass at the river walk once when my stiletto got caught in a crack..scar went away...blah

    does this suck to everybody or just me?

  • wtf is wrong with the drummer

  • Those metal stairs look forgiving.

  • Hes not even trying to get up

  • It is the most fun you will have watching somebody fall down an up escalator this year and the only music video or picture or visual or anything, ever where I've ever seen a drum set being played in an escalator, a moving escalator. It was awesome.

    That's why My Machines is my fourth favourite video of the year.

  • @rodri17698 good job quoting Anthony Fantana without quotation marks.

  • if he didnt struggle at all and just let the escalator take him all the way up he would have been fine.

  • @stereodumpling yes, but then the song would have been really short

  • @stereodumpling that would have ben a great music video

  • @maxafin touche'

  • NUUMAAAN!!!!

  • He got a few lingering stairs . . .

  • probably had so many bruises

  • That was the most disgusting music I have ever heard. The guys voice is shit! The guy on the escalators was funny and all but can someone put a cork in that guys mouth

  • @Nightstrife100 2 deep 4 u

  • @Nightstrife100 2deep4u

  • @Nightstrife100 well, battles is instrumental, that guy is just a guest, so you may like to check out their other stuff

  • "God forbid his pants get caught and a blood-bath ensues!"

  • that was actually quite scary!

  • great stuff

  • STRONG ENERGY.. VIVA EL ROCK!! Simply perfect.

  • If you dont understand a simple polyrythim dont bother leaving a comment. Been listening to ian williams tear it up since don cab. These are some of the most original musicians of our lifetime.

  • this video sucks mora than anything ever sucks before! we most find the butthole who direct this video

  • I actually felt really sorry for the guy..

  • Okay okay, I'll take the elevators.

  • Gary Numan you Aspergic asshole, help the man instead of fucking singing!

  • Funny video and a pretty interesting song. Definitely not horrible. Very out-of-the-norm for Gary Numan. I like it... it's pretty intense rock that's not metal, macabre or emo... although Gary Numan looked a little bit emo in this vid. Still.. Pretty good stuff. I don't like all of Battles' stuff, but this is good.

  • Maybe if you stopped rolling around on the escalator and bought something, our economy wouldn't suck.

  • That guy falling down the escalator looks like Tobcous lol

  • I like the part where he fell down the escalator.

  • Funny video but horrible song

  • I feel bad for that guy on the escalator

  • That scared the shit out of me! I'm never getting on one of those damn things again!!

  • Hahah i saw this vid on aBeavis and Butt-Head episode xD

  • Interesting continuos shot

  • Come on that guy can play drums down the escalator but you cant even stand up...haha ;)

  • In soviet russia you fall up stairs.

  • at 3:00 it sounds like what would happen if Robert Fripp made the Bowser theme

  • Early bcfv0h

  • I may be high but that dude on the escalator has got me cracking up....well for the first minute. I like it

  • Great video. Love the socio-economic metaphor of the middle class guy who can't seem to get ahead falling down the escalator. Clearly tons of money spent on this video. Job well done. Good to see Gary Numan for the first time ever too :p

  • Why is the up escalator going faster than the down

  • Thumbs up if u saw this video on beavis and butthead and thought it was fake! :)

  • F'n stupid. Anyone heard of Ministry? This is junk with bad makeup.

  • Haha, Beavis and Butthead :]

  • Thumbs up if bevis and butthead brought u here

  • I doubt that fall was even that serious. Over dramatic much?

  • lol i saw this on beavis n butthead weeks ago...

  • good

  • This video was very annoying. For many reasons.

  • Beavis and butthead made this famous.

  • for god danmm get uo DUDE ... hahaha retard

  • Falling up an escalator is one of those things that sounds good and probably looks better in cartoons but not so much in reality.

  • STAND UP DUMMY!!

  • Check out my channel Please!

  • well now... who's to say he isn't break dancing as he falls down?

    there is a band playing after all XD

  • Comment removed

  • Maybe if he’d go buy something instead of monkeying around on the escalator the economy wouldn’t suck.

  • I love the orange. 

  • not bad ,,,,,,,,,,,,,

  • cars?

  • Wonderful video!!!

  • 1:59 - "Where's daddy with my birthday present? He's probably drunk again flailing around on the escalator."

  • 360p? In September 2011? Seriously?

  • He needs to stop monkeying around on the escalator :D

  • This song is awesome, but the falling orange makes it better. Lol

  • watch?v=fPmruHc4S9Q mute video, listen to this song.

  • yah... The only thing that saved that song is that you can turn it all the way down and just watch endless fall down the escalator (if you've ever seen that in real life, it is horrifyingly funny). I can't imagine anyone walking around listening to the ear buds to that song for the sake of the song itself. That was like watching cool race car crashes set to the sound of Michael Moore's morning toilet sounds after an all-Taco Bell Saturday night.

  • Cool!

  • This is a little mall in Little Tokyo, Los Angeles.

  • Everyone loves a slin-ky

  • DIPPIN DOTS!

  • BEAVIS AND BUTTHEAD!!!

  • Beavis and Butthead xD

  • I bet his kid was like "wheres dad with my birthday gift? Hes probably at the mall drunk again, goofing off on the escalator."

  • LOL @ the orange/ball. Takes forever to reach the bottom. Oh yeah, beavis and butthead all the way.

  • DIPPIN DOTS

  • they should play piano music when hes falling down

  • I'll c u guys in the next music video Beavis and Butt-Head feature.
