Am watching this because I was stuck in an elevator just a week ago and trust me it is difficult to keep calm in such condition and worst is I am claustrophobic. I thought I was going to die cos I could feel my heart tightening, am grateful to God that help arrived on time and am still alive. It was a very horrible experience 😢

From an elevator mechanic, DO NOT TRY AND OPEN THE DOOR. You can get very hurt or you can brake something and make it more difficult for a mechanic to get you out.

I watched this video, whilst being stuck in the elevator. Thanks for the tips.

Tip: if you want to keep yourself entertained then you can go on your phone but remember to keep some battery for other things

The real scary part starts when the power goes off. Today I got stuck in an elevator for 15 mins . The last 5 mins had no power. Thankfully I was rescued!

I was stuck in an infrequently used hospital elevator a few weeks ago - one of those old hot metal cages - it was so terrifying as the call bell and buttons did not work and I did not have any signal or way out. I had to shout and hope there were passer by. It was so hot and I was in a panic as barely anyone knows of these elevators as its in the old section of the hospital. Luckily there was an old couple who just happenned to be walking by and helped get securtiy to help me get out. The elevator has since been put under maintenence and closed to public for the last month.

I got stuck in the lift at work yesterday 17/02/21 I work as concierge and the lift got stuck on 28th floor and could even hear the wind and my advice is to be calm because lift are safe otherwise you would panic start to feel like you loose breathing and press the bell button as it calls the lift emergency service anyway I ended up waiting up to 2 hours the lift people came and got me out and it’s scariest thing happened to me, never ever try to open the door and get out even if you’re close to the floor because sometimes lift can move and start to go down and you would be spilt in half if get caught in! Peace out

I got stuck in an airport elevator in the parking lot for an hour. That shit was scarry. And to top that I was in the Elevator with a Lady that said we might loose oxygen. I was like whattttt. Thank God there was another lady in there that believe in God. We started praying and it calmed me down. The other Lady was truly messing with my emotions saying God cant help us. Im like Lady please just shut up. However I didn't tell her that, lol. I just tried my best to stay positive.

if the lights turn off I faint ;-;

Just watching alone I am almost having an heart attack 🥺... I have serious phobia for elevators 😢

I got stuck in a elavater for 5hours and I had t wait and yell and then the fire depart cam and helped me that's why I never ever go in the elevator

How are you supposed to stay calm when you are stuck in the elevator?

I am watching this after it happened with me toady.. Actually l am student of class 11th today l used my school elevator 2nd time in my school life. And it was so unlucky for me as l stucked there, After shouting too much my P.T. teacher heared me and save my as well as my friends life. I am always greatful for him. Tip:Keep shouting until any one can hear you and don't get nervous (we were two so we shouted together this make him to hear us)

I would freak out if i got stuck in an elevator thanks for telling me that everytime i get in an elevator i get scared

I would start crying and freaking out this is my biggest fear

Yes I have been stuck in lift and i cried and was scared anx i was shouting for 10 min and then someone came and opened me but i creid all the way coming to my home I was crying because i am a kid so thats why

The guy:plays games while stuck on an damaged elevator Me:gets creeped out while stuck and starts to panic

Him: try to stay calm. Me: has a huge phobia of elevators

Moments ago I was stuck in my building elevator, no fan and a hot weather after I called for elevator company to come and get me out i was searching online for help and I find your video 😁

I wouldn't suggest banging on the doors. Also most modern lifts have interlocks on their doors so if you are trying to crack the door open, if it doesen't budge dont push any harder. This might damage the lift and delay your rescue.

If im was stuck in elevator im gonna panic and scream

Imagine if the guy filming this was really stuck in a elevator

I'm glad I've never been stuck in an elevator, but if I were going in one in a tall skyscraper I'd probably bring food and juice with me incase it does get stuck, and I'd be calm as long as I'm not stuck on the elevator with large, ugly insects or a problematic person.

I have a fear of elevators so if I ever get stuck in one imma sue lmao.

*"first, definetly stay calm"* *me with anxiety :*

Just got stuck in an elevator for an hour... the fact that I'm claustrophobic didn't help at all. That was terrifying lol

With my scenario, I was stuck at Level 2, pressed the emergency button with noone responding. Eventually I tried to open the door, and it was so easy, I did not push hard i believe. Opening the door is my life saver. But it only works on my scenario where the lift did not move and I have enough time to slip out.

His dramatic trembling hands are too funny lol.

I usually take the stairs..I'm terrified of getting stuck in a elevator

I got in stuck in a elevator once too. Luckily I was only in there for five minutes or so I also was with my mom it wasn’t so bad but if I was alone I’d probably be having a mental break down or at least internally screaming

Just press the alarm button for five seconds, unless the lift is electrically dead, then use your phone. If you don't have your phone, resort to the old method. Make lots of sound. Shout, bang something against the door, play loud music, etc. Someone will eventually realise that there's someone stuck in there and call the fire brigade. If you're on a floor and you have your phone, try using it to signal SOS through the door. It's three long pulses, followed by three short pulses, and three long pulses again. You can use your flashlight or a beeper to send the distress signal.

If I was alone and stuck in a elevator I would hysterically cry and Shout for my mum

Once I got stuck in a lift of abandoned building with functional lift. Oh boy that was hella scary 😭😭😭

I'd have a really bad anxiety attack I'm so scared I have to use a elevator everyday at school :( so I just wait for people to get on with me

Thenk you for telling me that beacase I am scarpe of elevatore

First thing to do is a panic

I got stuck in a elevator and there wasn't any light

2:02 Bruce Willis:Am I a joke to you?

I was stuck in a elevator and all you do is sit in the corner to wait for help

Thank You these tips are helpful

My brother just got stuck couple hours ago, it was after school, I got out before it closed he couldn't, securities weren't there then I called my parents, but my brother pressed the Bell button for 2 minutes ad tried cracking, suddenly the door partly opened and he pushed the rest. Thank god nothing happened

Yes, It almost happened to me lol. Glad I'm safe

Nearly got stuck in an elevator in the Queen Victoria building in Sydney. It stopped. In Between floors. It said "LOAD LIMIT: 3) We had 4 people, and 2 bikes. One of them bounced a bit and it started again. When I was about to hit the alarm!

One time I got stuck I press the emergency button but it didn’t work😭😭😭

2:50 he has phone and call to emergency

I got stuck in an elevator a few weeks ago, actually that wasn’t even the first time this happen. I been stuck in 5 elevators different times It always sucks and is very inconvenient. First after trying different buttons and waiting to see if it resumes then I call for help. Then have the wait till they come. Ive never been stuck alone so it wasn’t as boring. After a while I get frustrated that I can’t go anywhere but nothing to bad.

I got stuck in lift once. But the lift had glass through which i can see outside. When they were helping me i could see them which gave me confidence. Glass lifts are best😃

Opening door might help, If the lift is most likely has a logic error, it may matter where its leveled, between floors. OR on the floor, in both ways opening door by hand could help

But make sure you use a clean shoe

This is why I take the stairs lol

Well at least that's better when you forget to press on a floor and the elevator lights turn off

I'm so glad I watched a video of this because I'm really stuck in a elevator.

make sure if the call button donst to anything, make sure to hold it for an few secounds, depending on the elevantor and country its might only gonna work if you hold it down for like 5-10 secounds.

Them:breath calmly. Me:AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

I got stuck in a small elevator with 8 friends. It was so scary because we didnt have signal, there was not air and suddenly the lights were cut.

Elevators scare me every time

We learned how not to panic

THANK GOD I NEVER BEEN STUCK. I TRY TO AVOID ELEVATORS, BUT SOMETIMES ITS THE ONLY WAY UP AND DOWN. I JUST PRAY THIS NEVER HAPPENS TO ME OR ANYONE

I m ligit stuck in an elevator rn but one question what if there is no signal or there's a fire what do you do? I am just a bit curious OMG DUDE 😲😳😍😅😭😩😲😳😍😅😭😩😲😳😍😅😭😩😲😳😍😅😭😩😲😳 THE ELEVATOR OPENED BYE IM HEAD OUT BEFORE IT CLOSES ON ME ILL JUST ASK SOME QUESTIONS AT HOME I AM NEVER TALKING AN ELEVATOR I'LL JUST USE THE STAIRS

What If The Lift Turn Off When Stuck Inside An Elavoter

Great tips. Does the oxygen inside eventually run out if you're stuck in for too long and there's no power?

What if your in a different elevator and no bells marked on a button or only just numbers on the wall

Imagine your in a stuck elevator your phones dead and the lights go out 😬

Guys here's an easier thing: just try the bell button or the phone that is in the elevator.... NEVER JUMP OR MOVE THE ELEVATOR! It could just make it worse!

I now hate lifts because when I was a little toddler me,my mum and my mum's friends were in a lift and they we're making noise so yeah:(

If i got stuck ill just watch you vids while im waiting for help LOL

I got stuck in the lift today & I couldn't kept my self calm. I was loosing my breath & was so panic. I started banging on the door & then lady asked me from out side to stay calm & press B. Door opened. First time in my life I was so scared & panic.

Nah I'm stuck in the bathroom

Tips you will need air in the lift so grab a supplie to stick between the lift to get fresh air also if you think the lift is going to fall its not they have emergency breakers to stop the lift by falling be safe everyone

What is the bell doesn’t work😭

Im 9 and i just got stuck in an elevator 30 mins ago i was stuck there for 15 mins the elevator had no emergency button so i had to just wait it out i tried yelling but not too loud so i can save my energy for later but after alot of yelling for help and crying security heard me and they got me out i will be more gratful whenever i am not stuck in an elevator.

I was stucked one time the lights get off and there was no one

God bless you

my nightmare!!!

Thanks For Sharing This! I Am A Kid! Now I Know!

"stay entertained" bro i dont think you can be that confident in those situation like literally me myself i would literally keep jumping with panic in elevator and scream

I needed that

my mom was stuck in an elevator once but i was by great grandma so she climbed out

I got stuck in an elevator before and I just played fortnite till I won and screamed so hard someone opened the door

Thanks I was stuck u helped me

Today Me and my Friend got stuck in our school elevator for thank god only 5 minutes. But I'll say it was not that panicking or horrifying for me but it was the most panicking and horrible situation for my friend. He's quite a fearless person I've never seen him getting scared easily. But he is claustrophobic. So I think it's the worst nightmare for a claustrophobic person to get stuck inside that metal cage

One time I was stuck to get food and my mom she said me too and then I was stuck for four days and I had a phone thank god!

How do u build something without insuring a way out of it? Thats why i dont ride them for nothing

banging on the door may damage it or worse ... ill take the risk of prying it open a little for air and to call out , a lot less risky that way

Please be patient

idk it will work or not but if you have a phone or anything that calls call someone that is close to you if is not then call someone and wait dont panick tell which floor you are if they press the button out side of the elevator it worked for me when my brother called our mom and it worked

Don't try to get out? I got stuck in my apartment building elevator yesterday. I got myself out by opening the door and then opening the second door and jumping out. I am 63 years old, female and no one responded to the alarm bill or my yells or banging. I was stuck in there for about five minutes. I feel like a superhero.

I keep battery generators in my pocket or bag for if this ever happens

I would just scream very loud of how scared i would get and probably hurt ny own ears

I got stucked in elevator and i got scared and I cry 😭 🧥 👖

but what if the elevator gets stuck between two floors? it happened to me...

NO!!!!!!!!!!! I know so much about elevators, and to everyone who is watching this, don’t try and pry open the doors! It’s really really bad!

I live in apartment so I have to go to school and I have to go down the elevator to go to school and I’m so scared to get stuck in the elevator

When I got stuck in an elevator I had no service and the elevator had no power lights off everything not working it was so scary!

I'm scared of elevator

Also you shouldn’t open the doors your self or try to escape on your own. This is very dangerous. Better off sitting in the elevator and waiting for help. Use the elevator phone, if there isn’t one you can call 911 and the fire department will come.

I was stuck once...I was cool as as a cucumber! But the engineer saw that I was a lil rattled!

If the elevator door is aluminium if you use force you can open the door

I have an elevator phobia so theres no chance i can calm down plus its so scary to be stuck on an elevator

This is why i Will never take the lift in my life
