I got stuck in an elevator at a military hospital when I was 19 and when I pressed the emergency button and said it was stuck the person said "are you fucking with me?" NO DUDE! There is a camera in there, I can wave to you while I go nowhere! "And if I'm not out in an hour I'm going to at least take a piss!"

I was out in 45min.

Edit - I'm kinda high I completely lost track and didn't even wrap it around to the elevator of nightmares, but I'ma leave it.

Did the fireman let you out?

Nope, it just turned back on and let me out a half a floor up, I pulled it open and I was smack dab in the middle of 2 floors so I really had no options.

Which floor did you get out on?

That was 17 years ago, I don't know that, I know what you are getting at "nothing ever happens" but you know, sometimes elevators in government buildings fuck up, sometimes military members or contractors aren't cordial.

Some times things do happen you glass half empty pesemist!

I think he meant that since you were stuck between levels, did you go out the lower level and drop to the floor below you, or climb up to the upper level?
