Slinky Question for You!

If you made a big enough slinky for an escalator would it continue to tumble as long as the elevator was going at the right speed?

It'll be fine until they turn the power off for the night.

It would probably eventually fall over on it's side and not move anymore, but it's possible. That sounds hella fun, haha.

Well I've heard from some people that because the elevator is pushing it back up and the slinky relise on gravity it would eventualy stop.
