Return to article: How to . . . NOT PANIC and prepare yourself in case you GET STUCK IN AN ELEVATOR.
on 9/30/2008 I hate elavators. Great advice. Thank you.
on 2/18/2008 Great article!!!!!!!!! I always wondered how I would handle such a situation. This will stick in the back of my mind I'm sure if such a thing should take place......just before I pass out. LOL
on 2/14/2008 I DONT WANT TO LEARN HOW TO "WAIT." WHAT I NEED TO KNOW IN THESE TIMES OF TERRORIST ATTACKS, ETC. IS HOW TO GET OUT THE ELEVATOR WITHOUT WAITING AN HOUR ON SOMEONE ON THE OUTSIDE THAT MAY OR MAY NOT COME TO MY RESCUE. ITS AN OUTRAGE THAT A COMPANY CAN PROVIDE AN ELEVATOR SERVICE TO THE PUBLIC AND WHEN STUCK YOU HAVE TO WAIT TO SEE IF SOMEONE "MIGHT" COME TO YOUR RESCUE. I THINK THERE NEEDS TO BE SOME NEW AND MORE SPECIFIC LEGISLATION.
on 12/9/2007 Good tips, but you could always do the alternative and take the stairs. Exercise is always a good thing. :)
on 12/7/2007 Thanks . . . My sons daughter ( age 13 ) just got out of a stuck elevator and this gave me the idea for the article.
on 12/7/2007 Great tips and ideas. Another idea is that it might not have lost power. In older buildings sometimes the inner door gets stuck on the outer door and a nudge to open is all it will take. It is just a pressure problem and when you give it that little extra push it is able to overcome the issue and the door will open issue free.
