Somewhat unrelated but that happened to me once on an escalator as a kid - I had very long hair when I was a young girl, and I went to the mall with my mom. I was on a department store escalator and suddenly felt my hair being pulled towards one of the sides/handrails. My mom noticed pretty quick, thankfully, and was able to yank it out before anything happened besides me being terrified as fuck.

That was decades ago and I still remember it vividly. Thanks for the PTSD flashback, lol
