Any treadmill I've seen had a sensor which shuts down the mill if the tread gets jammed.

  I think that's really the damning bit - in the video shown, you can see ripples in the belt still moving towards the kid just after the sister runs off. The belt's jammed, the user's dismounted, and it's still trying to win.

    At some point the treadmill actually spits the kid out. It reverses the speed for like one, two seconds when the kid was jammed and everything had stopped, but then it starts going back in its original direction and the kid gets sucked back in before he has time to get clear.

  Yeah the Peloton does detect itself getting jammed. You can see it automatically start running backwards to unjam itself in the video, then start running forward again. Crazy to think that someone thought that was a good idea.
