Have you ever been stuck in a lift or an elevator?

Quite a few years ago I was stuck between 2 floors in a lift and we had to prise the door open and squeeze ourself out. Thankfully I've never had that happen to me after that.
The present lifts I use tend to have a backup and hence move to the closest floor and the doors open.

I haven't been but it would be pretty scary I think. There was a big black out on the East Coast one time a number of years ago. It lasted for hours. My ex was living in Boston at the time. He was just about to get on an elevator before the power went out but he thought it was too crowded..and did not do it...Thankfully, he would have been stuck on there for hours!

I have never been stuck inside an elevator. What's more scary is when you are stuck inside and the lights were out.

Yes., in the year 2009 while I was in the lift was stuck up in between the 9 and 8 th floors and were just below the floor (9th floor) we got into. I opened the door and came out with a single push with my hands. After that, I went inside the office and informed the attendees to bring stools for those who can not come up. They did so and everybody came out safely.
