Filmed on April 11, 2015: I was getting a 1080p take of this vintage 70's Dover freight elevator and when we reached up to the second floor, it got stopped without the doors opening. As I pushed every buttons, it did not do anything and after I stopped my camera. I pushed and pulled the emergency stop switch. Then the bell rang and finally the doors opened. Talk about a Dover quality! So this was a FULL COMPARISON to Andrew (DieselDucy) where he almost got stuck in the Dover Impulse elevator in a Carillons hospital somewhere in Roanoke, VA.

This reminds me of DieselDucy's video of getting stuck in that Dover freight elevator at a mall in 2013. The only difference with his video is that he broke out of it and it had gotten stuck while it was moving.

Elevating Denver Kind of like that, but the whole comparison is where he got stuck in the Dover Impulse elevator at Carilions.

That used to be the old JCPenney Freight Elevator. This is one of the malls I have to check out when I'm down there.

Hey jim! I was wanting to tell that today evening I am staying in RNS residency hotel. After I finished swimming, i went back up to the 4th floor and all of a sudden my dad's spectacles got lost. So, i went down back to the basement where the swimming pool is located and in front of the pool, the is a large room where there are 3-4 diesel generators. When I found that my dad's spectacles are not there near the pool , I decided to go back up to our room. When the elevator came , I pushed and doors closed , one second later , the lights went out and i got stuck in the elevator. I put on the flashlight from my phone and my dad decided to call security. While trying to call the security , I heard a loud roar of the D.G. sets starting up together. 10 seconds later, the lights turned on in the elevator , the doors opened and the security man came inside the elevator and went to level G. I was saved.

Interesting... I wish you had kept the camera going the whole time though. Other than that, this video perfectly exhibits what being stuck in an elevator is like. Because of that, I have left a like on this video! ;-)

I was about to say the same thing. Is this where a JCPenney closed in '98 and reopened a couple years ago as a Mercado?

Couldn't you have just opened the doors manually? I mean, you did stop at the floor.
