Someone trapped under a stopped treadmill is much better than some trapped under a running treadmill. At least with a stopped treadmill you’re not fighting with the treadmill the escape, and if the belt enters a free running mode when off, then it’ll make it easier to escape. If you watch the video you can see the kid get trapped by the treadmill and completely stalls the belt. But rather than shutting downs, the treadmill just keeps trying to run forwards. There’s even a moment where the belt runs backwards for a second before it start running forwards again, re-trapping the kid.
