The escalator is the popular kid that gets forgotten when the weird kid does something cool and gets all the attention.

Omg that's so true
I actually prefer to use the stairs cause the escalators feels like a waste of time. When there's only escalators to use I still walk or climb them cause I feel weird just standing still waiting to get to the top, so I really hate when I'm stuck behind people that don't move.
This is so true lol 😂

“Hey Johnny, play that one about falling down the stairs!”
Sure thing Bobby!
(Falls down stairs)
I LOVE IT
Ironically the song is london bridge is falling down
dammit Gyro

Imagine falling down the stairs and playing the most impressive jazz solo
Every pianist dream
HAHAHAHAHAH
Lol

Charlie Parker down the stairs.
It's not just the "fun" element. Escalators treat you like an object. These stairs acknowledge your existence. They make you feel like you're doing something, even like your existence could possibly make the world more beautiful.
Objects as treated on conveyor belts,
I like the way you said that :)
We should probably make stairs for objects too and end this discrimination.
wrong
it's not that deep
Imagine how much of a racket would there be on a busy day if like 20 people were using the stairs at once
Imagine if that racket would accidentally make one of best piano pieces

love seeing adults being curious like children do
even the elderly man at 1:22 !!!
Honestly that's probably what intrigues me the most, like how many repeat users did this get?
Can't help but feel most people would use it once maybe twice then the novelty would wear off for them.
seeing people having fun using the staircase is so wholesome

How to get more people to choose stairs instead of escalator?

Or just switch them off and write "trasig. Tack för att du använder trappan."

I love how, for a few minutes, grown adults became children again. Brilliant.
Yeh
Adults shouldn't stop having an "inner child"! Sometimes you just have to behave silly to still be able to see the beauty in things I think.
In reality every adult is a child deep inside. But worldly problems and the will to survive surpress it from showing
If you answer true then I can say that you are from England?
Yes it was brilliant! I just love this! This is the kind of stuff the world needs more of. 😃 i’d love to have one in Cleveland Ohio.

Write this as an SCP. A stair that plays noise any time someone steps on it. Noise can happen at any frequency and any loudness and 1 incident it played a infrasound so loud it caused earthquake. There is no mechanism to make any sound but it just does.
@@lampoilropebombs0640 that would be cool
As someone who enjoys choosing the stairs this was very pleasing to watch.
Not only did you successfully made people use the stair more in a harmless way, you've made them unconsciously walk up and down it more and made them even healthier!
This is how people should do it to change behaviours, instead of forcing people to change themselves, we should make it fun or convenient for them to change!
The sound must be unbearable during rush hour.

This made me feel like a lot of adults are actually children. Or at least, they like to act like children sometimes. Or... maybe they need it, because being curious and exploring new stuff, playing and smiling, you will not be defeated by stress.
Like... Imagine you had a terrible day and then you find this funny piano.
We all have our inner child so..☺️
Growing up doesn't mean you're childhood is gonna vanish away it'll only disappear when you're dead

I dont think choosing a piano staircase over an escalator is a child thing. I think people are just naturally curious in general. And something different like this WILL bound to get reactions. Id go up those stairs too if I see them. Ive never seen that shit before lol. But once Im used to using them, Ill take an escalator again. Lol mix it up

"Fun can obviously change behavior for the better" so real. That's art and fun deepest proposal, make our lives happier and make us feeling better. Modern life is not good for us in general, we need to rediscover the meaning of living, the world now is not right, simplest things can bring us so much more happiness than material stuff or fleeting goals

It could be if you pay more.

I feel like that would get annoying after a while, especially with a bunch of people walking on it at once. Can you imagine the jumble of discordant notes?
I feel like people find faults in literally everything, no matter how good it is.
Don't these people go outside?
Ain't there traffic noises, honking, a plethora of people talking all at once, children crying their throats out, and all sorts of market sounds?
If we can bear all of that almost all our life, why not these discordant notes just for 30 seconds, if it does any good to us?

What an initiative dude.
Bruh, I've been taking the stairs over escalators for years now. It started with me trying to prove a point of how it's faster to go by stairs to my family whilst on a vacation when I was a small kid. Now it kinda stuck, and I've been taking the stairs ever since 😂
Still, it was *fun* trying to prove it was faster now wasn't it?
Same. In our local shopping centre I take the stairs and my mom takes the escalator and I ALWAYS make it to the top faster. The reason why I do it is because I dont want to fall into that millenial category of "They are just a bag of bones that know how to change channels on the TV". Its like being useless is one of my deepest fears. So I make an effort to be "less lazy" by opting to take the stairs over the escalator :) Using my God given legs, respectfully.
Looll I still always take the stairs instead of the escalator because there’s nobody blocking it so you can go faster. I also made a point to prove “hey look, I’m at the top first”, and I still kinda do that haha, i also like to spend less time doing things I don’t find fun so when I have to go somewhere on my own I usually just start running instead of walking
For me its stairs vs elevator at my job. I can beat the elevator a lot of times when I take the stairs so I usually just use the stairs
No no no no☝️. It started with me. I was the first one to take the stairs 😌. Long time ago
Volkswagen: use staircases instead of scalators
People: use bikes instead of cars
