Replace the bridge with an industrial factory conveyor belt system with mechanical rollers and metal framework. Make all the people standing upright in a hypnotized slumped-over posture, not sitting. Show clear life stage sections on the belt: young child with backpack at school desk, teenager with college books, adult at office computer desk, elderly person in retirement rocking chair, then grim reaper with scythe at the final end. Show visible age progression through each section - hair graying, posture changing, clothing evolving. Make the one person who is escaping run in the opposite direction away from the grim reaper, back towards the beginning of the belt. Keep the neon pink and cyan aesthetic.
