I knew a guy in a wheelchair too who got stuck in an elevator on the 13th floor. After ten hours they determined it wasn’t going to get fixed anytime soon and proceeded to lower a harness and rescue personnel down from the 23rd floor and lift him up and out. He lost his few remaining marbles from that as he was not only paraplegic but had claustrophobia and a fear of heights. Poor guy lol.

But in 2018 I got stuck in an elevator with my friend, and had to press the onboard Panic button. Had an engineer not happened to be nearby that day, we were told we could've been stuck there for many hours I no longer use Elevators. On the plus side, stairs keep me from being lazy

Ah, yeah, elevators, I have a lot of experience with it. Twice I was on the 4rth floor at college with my wheelchair and was stuck for a few hours on the 4rth floor before 8-10 firefighters came to help bring me and my wheelchair down by stairs. It was twice a real rescue. The college building had only 1 elevator and it happened both times at the end of the day so they couldn't send man to repair the elevator before the next day. Luckily I live in Belgium, and some profs of the college stayed with me.

I had such a bad fear of elevators I climbed it with double pneumonia, strep, and RSV all at once. Why? Because there was an incident one day where my dad forced me to ride a packed elevator with only enough room to hit the button with your elbow that got stuck between the 4th and 5th floor after dropping 2 floors.

My question is if the delivery guy was able to call through on the Intercom, wouldn’t the operator have been able to tell that he was calling from an elevator?

Actually, Nicholas White, 34, was working late and got trapped in an elevator working as a business week employee at 1221 avenues of the Americans in Manhattan, New York. After a smoke break, back in October 1999, he made his way back to his office when a power dip stopped the elevator abruptly. When the power returned, he realizes that the elevator wasn't working and tried to alert staff vile pressing the emergency button. No one responded and he ended up enduring 41 nightmarish hours. He didn't bring his phone with him and remained trapped until security guards spotted him by cameras White sued the building owners and received a settlement. His colleagues thought he simply left but didn't realize he's trapped in the elevator White thought he would die from dehydration by the time he was found. He tried getting people attention by opening the doors and peed in the gaps hoping someone would notice

[@Itried20takennames]

My best friend from college was in an older building for a doctor’s appointment with her kid, and when they went from the 2 to the 1st floor, the elevator suddenly dropped. She pushed the open button...nothing happened. Then she heard a weird noise, and water started filling the floor of the elevator. She managed to pry the doors open and wade through the water filling the basement with her child....the elevator had fallen onto a main water pipe. This happened in New Jersey in about 2008. Only a few minutes after she went back to the doctors office and reported the accident, the water had reached the top of the basement stairs. She had a tibial plateau fracture from the drop.
