TimeLapse Video of a Guy Trapped in an Elevator for 41 Hours

Accompanying video to Nick Paumgarten’s piece “Up and Then Down” from the April 21st issue of The New Yorker. Footage of Nicholas White trapped in an elevator in the McGraw-Hill Building.

Woe. 41 hours in an elevator. Try not to go a little nuts.

    That was the coolest video I’ll see all year me thinks… thanks.

    Love the end with the ‘out of order’ sign placed oh so carefully in the doorway.

    @Bootrix2: I have no clue.

    @Bryan: The music just sweeps it all together.

    For sure!! Soundtrack soundtrack soundtrack… I just watched it for the 3rd time… hahah ok back to work.

    Oh… I guess being trapped in there kinda blocked up his colon, doesn’t look like he took a dump throughout. Although I think he may have took a piss out the doors at a few points.
