Angel Reverse Escalator Challenge

The main escalator at Angel tube station in London is the longest continuous escalator in the western Europe apparently. So your challenge, should you choose to accept it, is to run up the down escalator. Easy eh. In this footage Tom and Neil drunkenly attempt the AREC.
*I obviously meant escalator rather than elevator in my commentary... I blame the booze and the running*

I think it's awesome exercise but you should do it when the place is deserted!
