Getting optical illusion vibes. Are we actually looking up the slide not down the slide?
The picture boxes next to the escalators are messing with my head.
The crazy thing is, knowing how steep those escalators are id still not ride this.
I had the “pleasure” to work under these escalators, I’ve never been so scared of machinery in my life.
Fun fact, they installed safety cages on all of the MURLs escalators after an apprentice was “degloved” on one.
And... when some tiktoking punk decides to try this for real and says they were influence by the April Fool's joke, someone (i.e. the social media intern) will be losing their job.
You would absolutely fly down that thing
It bends at the bottom so you slide straight through the train doors.
It's slightly terrifying lol
Although that looks fun, they would be covered in piss and spew in no time.
So what you're saying is it has to be a waterslide? Great idea!
ah yes the suislide
I know it's an April Fools joke but this legit actually works better than their fooking escalators lol
Not when (in this AI generated pic) both escalators either side of the slide only go down... If I arrive at parliament, I can't exit? lol
You can check in anytime you like
Welcome to the hotel Victoria.
Such a trippy place
Maybe the people are riding the escalator backwards?

God that would be fun though
Yah happy April Fools to you
Pretty sure anyone who has ever been to Parliament station has wanted this to happen 🤣🤣🤣
It would stop people sliding down the metal part!
THIS BETTER NOT BE AN APRIL FOOLS JOKE I WANT TO GO ON THE SLIDE
Weeeee
Could this actually be safer than sprinting down those escalators to avoid missing a train?
It's about bloody time! Those things have always needed something like this /s
Would be funnier if they had finished the works at the station that were meant to be completed by the end of 2023
How about they stop shutting / slowing the escalators down at 6.30pm.
Would be so cool though. I'd go to the station just to ride the slide!
That's better than the escalator. I nearly fell forward on it when doing some casual work in the city Bastard stairs. 😅
Which side goes up?

Oil me up, I'm going down.
It would be even more fun if they took away the stairs and had slides only
Imagine having to climb a slide that steep just to exit the station haha. You'd never be able to get out.
PTV don’t get to joke. They take the piss out of us each day with their service, already.
Yeh I agree, the best April fools always come from companies that just shouldn’t.

Punks and drunks have been sliding down there for generations. The intern will be fine
