Basically, what happened was you cracked open the now-defunct rear door (that was still connected to the lift's logic). Then, the safety circuit is opened and the lift shuts down. Some lifts reset once the safety circuit is reconnected, while other lifts require the fire brigade/lift engineer to reset it for you.

3:23 OMG!!!!!! I AM DYING LAUGHING SO HARD!!!!! 😂🤣😂🤣😂 YOUR REACTION SERIOUSLY KILLED ME SO HARD AS WELL AS THE SLOW-MOTION! But in all seriousness though, I’m glad you finally got out safe.

I have terrible panic attacks and I absolutely HATE elevators, especially these outdoor 2-floor garage elevators. They never feel safe and seem exceptionally slow. I'm panicking just watching this LOL.

Your reaction was PRICELESS!!! 😂😂

Wow that’s crazy! And I wasn’t expecting them to get you out through the cartop! Crazy stuff, but glad you’re alright.

What a big reaction you made to the elevator stopping in between floors!

Wow they rescued you from the car top, that's pretty uncommon honestly to see rescues like that. That's pretty cool, glad you were ok.

My son was going to have a blood test in NHS hospital cause we went to the car park at 5th floor, he was scared cause he doesn't like to be stuck, if it's stuck, he's gonna get freaked out and said '' no this can't be god damn it, HELP ME!!'' that's when he hates elevator.

Well, nice to see the stuck moment on its own and even the finding out how to escape. Thanks for uploading

Omg imagine how scary it would be for a blind person

Now this is why i love stairs

The lift safetybreaked and wasn’t able to move. Look. You need to reset the lift from the cabinet. (note: Otis gen 2 can also do that but it will go back into JU mode after this.)

Wow! What an epic rescue 👍

Here after just being stuck in a elevator and it’s sooo scary I was panicking and my phone was dead while stuck but luckily someone was outside the elevator and heard me and called for help

I know where this is, I used to work for QFC. I was at two different stores, and the company does a very lousy job keeping their stuff maintained.

Thankful to hear you’re safe. I typically like 400As (as well as other Schindler Tractions), but this is pathetic. I remember one time I was going up an Otis M2 Traction (Floor 1 to Floor 3), it had a delayed start and after passing floor 2 it jerked to a stop and canceled my call, (thankfully after I reselected my floor, it started back up only seconds later).

They really should’ve disabled the safety on that rear door if it wasn’t in use. It makes no sense to me why they would just leave it. I’ve had issues with a rear door 330A before. Dang controller.

It was possible that the door sensor for the rear door was activated when you put the arm near the door causing it to stop.

"Yeah I'm physically fine" 🤣🤣🤣🤣😭😭

Jeez sorry to hear that, but um after hearing you got stuck and have had problems with these multiple times. I would be VERY hesitant to ride these! i hope these get replaced soon!

Damn! Your reaction on 3:23 , if that was me in there by myself, I would literally curse myself out bro.

3:23 stop oh no

Do you test elevators for safety?

Holy crap! That's pretty crazy, glad you got out safely. I've always liked the 400A personally, but I've never seen one this bad before...

LMFAO your reaction. Besides you getting stuck, these things are actually pretty cool. I’ve never been too fond of 400As though lol

I don’t know why this person would take the elevator again after being stuck🧐 I am glad this person got out safely but maybe it’s a sign not to take the elevator if you can just walk up.

Also, how long were you stuck in the elevator?

I’m confused by this. You deliberately kept going in and out pressing floor 1/2 buttons and now surprised you’re stuck?

Glad ur safe

It seems like it was a safety brake that kicked in, and the elevator didn't reset or start moving again.

The elevator bell sounds just like the Schindler 330A bell lol

Well, I guess I won’t be riding these... I’m glad you’re okay, though.

I haven't really gotten stuck in an elevator yet. The only thing that happened was that the doors didn't open, but that was all.

At least you got stuck on one with a call button. I got stuck in one of my school elevators once and I couldn’t call for help because there was no call button OR a phone!

I have ever been stuck in a lift aka I'm British but I have been locked in a multistorey car park for nearly 17 hours and the people who could open it and let us out were 2 mins away typical

Is the QFC multi-floor as well?

i remember in a hostel i got stuck in one it just went half way to my floor and then suddenly it just stopped. 5 minutes of nothing then the lift just started flying up and down for 20 minutes, it crashed somewhere with a loud bang and then constantly opening and closing the doors to a black nothing, it got to my floor doors wouldn't open for 10 minutes. Then i finally got out when it just slightly opened it's doors i pushed it open and jumped out of the lift. 😱🥶🥶🥶🥶 scariest moment of my freaking life!

Do you remember what you said when you were freed from the elevator?

3:23 Starting to become like Filechia, I see? That was quite the stop tho.

Thanks for all those pictures by the way 14:38

oh i remember these! thats 400 YAY for you

You probably somehow disconnected the safety circuit on the door which is why them restarting it didn't work

I’ve been on these piece of shit before. I got stuck in this same car. Glad you got out ok though

OMG that is crazy! The movie style escape was crazy and came into reality

3:23 I replayed that in slow motion

Once, me and my mom were at a hotel and we clicked the floor and it didnt go, and it wouldnt go up and the light on the button was on, but thankfully, my mom pressed the door open button and the doors opened, i have a crippling fear of elevators even before this, no matter where, i take stairs

The beep sometimes happens when they cutoff the power

I hope I never ever get stuck in an elevator. So far that fortunately never has happened to me as of yet. But I still love elevators!

where did the rear doors open to?

3:22 then “HOLY FUCK” Really got me 😂 I feel the pain you were in, once I was stuck in an inclosed one (no windows) and was stuck for almost 3h30m

I got stuck in the elevator twice but I haven’t got stuck on a Schindler elevator, and I hope you were okay

I got stuck in one before. They were able to send someone to come and reset the evaluator and it sent me to where I needed to go

Did you tell them the rear door safety broke the elevator?

This s scary. I would cry cause I have phobia being stuck in places.

How long were you stuck

How long were you stuck?

im physicaly fine xD dudew ur hillarious i subscribed

The Lesson today: Never go to QFC

Elevator western, are you ok in that elevator? When you mentioned headphone warning, that means someone called the elevator, right?

Honestly these are nice elevators. They just need a little fixing.

Why close off an extra pair of doors - seems silly to do that.

During what numner of minutes you are being stuck ?

Wait a second? You...got...stuck...in...so...many...Elevators?! 9:07

Omg this would literally have me in terror cuz I have claustrophobia

I’m glad you’re okay because the owner of these elevators is known for neglecting and poor maintenance to their elevators. Hopefully it’s not Simon properties.

I goy stuck in an elevator with 5 other of my friends at a hotel and the fire-fighters had to break open the door

top reasons why i dont go to the elevators

I watched this after watching the guy that was stuck for 41 hours. dear god

i live in applewood and i almost got stuck by those crappy elevators in applewood

What do you think would happen??? Going up and down 100x each. Like you had this coming....

E brake not working?

That's crazy!

Schindlers finest I been stuck in 5 elevators since 2015 2 of them being Schindler RT and both those times the fire department came for us, both those times we were stuck for almost an hour because the fire department wasn’t call immediately and security tried to get us out but it didn’t work. I’ve seen so many Schindler elevators break recently.

“I don’t trust these elevators at all”. Keeps riding up and down in it.

I heard an elevator go into nudge mode once!!

It was a Dover VR when I went up, the door clutched and I think is the safety break than I got stuck with the elevator technician for about few minutes it was quite a journey

If you got stuck in the same elevator once, WHY would you risk it a second time?

Glad the elevator didn't dropped!

It’s crazy that they don’t provide options to pry the door open from the inside. Opening from the outside with a drop key is so easy.

I have been stuck in a elivator for 1 hour the lift fel from 9th to 3 floor and in the elivator there were me and my 2 friends we were just chillin that the elivator would start again but my one friend had panic attack and said he couldn't breath then we got scarred and he just started to pull the doors of elavator and then he broke the doors now the doors are stuck and we can see the wall in between 2 floors and can't see floors but then after 1 hour someone reported about the elevator and we were out after 20 mins of trying of people to open gate

Didn't he cause the shutdown of the safety circuit?

Why do you brake the elevator

Bro thats sick i have a phopia about elavtor you earnd sub!

Omg I hope you were ok 😊

Hey guys want me to make a vid of elevators in my buliding my elevators our westing house ones.

they should've used fire recall or something

Why is there a rear door with a handrail blocking it I’ve never seen that

I have a trauma of being stuck in an elevator. I was stuck in a vacuum elevator for 8 hours. I almost blacked out and Jesus christ was it terrifying. My phone was already dead, the ringer button was destroyed. Nobody would hear me scream cuz it was a vacuum elevator. I talked to my self for the next 8 hours. Waited for someone to realize the elevator was stuck. Well yeah it was an old elevator and you could say why not just open it by raw strength? I was 10 years old at that time.

lol last time i got stuck in one i called the fire department the ripped the doors completely off of it

Elevators give me bad feelings.. I always like to take the stairs. Only sometimes the elevator.

Ironically, I nearly got stuck in a Schindler modded by ThyssenKrupp. Also, for some reason Europe Schindler’s are great quality.

Those things are literal pieces of shit. They need to remove the safety and weld the rear door shut. Gotta love when they get you out movie style. Also love that Schindler alarm very loud. Schindler 400a’s are literal shit

I went to beck yesterday and it starts up in a weird sound

Can’t believe u got stuk as hell

Why install a traction elevator for only two floors?

Goes out of service just because of a safety break???

“HOLY FUCK!!!”

What does river have to do with getting stuck in an elevator

I feel so bad for you I I be scared when I'm getting on the elevator too because I be scared if I get stuck

Bro wants to get stuck in elevator 💀💀💀💀
