Then I, at some point, took out my wallet and tried to distract myself by reading the back of a football ticket I had. You know, I was yelling up and down the shaft. I slapped the walls. I did get mad. I did curse. I did shout at the camera.
How did you cope practically? Did you sleep? Or I assume you need the bathroom?
Ah, yes. When I did have to urinate, I slipped open the doors and relieved myself down the shaft, with the idea that perhaps that could be a signal to someone too. The level of desperation was increasing, of course. And at some point, I decided that I would try to open the doors. So I opened the door about two inches and looked down the shaft. It's sort of an infinite blackness. There might be a hint of light, but not very much. I looked up the same thing. It's just a totally dark shaft. The longer it goes on, the more imagination takes over. And I was thinking that perhaps due to the renovation in the lobby, they may have taken this elevator out of service, for God knows how long. I mean, we're talking weeks then. At one point, I am wondering if this is gonna become my tomb, and instead of dying in a skydiving accident or well, Wild West Shootout. I'm gonna die in an elevator. They're gonna open the doors and there's my corpse.
Friday turned to Saturday, and Saturday to Sunday.
Eventually someone saw me on Sunday at four. A voice came over the intercom and said "Is there someone in there?" I said, "Yes, there's someone in here."
41 hours later.
That's, yeah.我先在电梯里走来走去,不停变着顺序按电梯里的按钮。之后我拿出钱包,看球票背面的内容,试图转移自己的注意力。我向电梯井大声喊叫,拍打墙壁,愤怒地诅咒,冲着摄像头大喊。
你是如何应对这种状况的?有没有睡觉?会不会想上厕所?
啊,确实会。当憋不住时我就打开门,对着电梯井解决,心想这也许算是一种信号,能引起别人注意。被困的时间越长,就越感到绝望。我试图打开门,把门打开两英寸后,我顺着电梯井向下看,下面漆黑一片,有些许微弱的亮光。上面的情形也是一样。整个电梯井彻底被黑暗笼罩。随着时间流逝,我开始胡思乱想,也许由于大厅整修,这个电梯会被停用几个星期。也许这个电梯就是我的坟墓,我不是死于跳伞事故,而是死在这个电梯里。电梯门一打开,我的尸体就躺在门后。
周五过去了,周六过去了,到了周日。
终于,在周日早上四点,有人发现了我。一个声音从对讲机中传出:“有人在里面吗?”我说:“是的,有人。”
41个小时过去了。
是的。
