Security Footage!

I just read the complete story. First he stayed home for a couple of days, then when he got media attention, the guy sued the elevator company for 25 million dollars (You know I can get the sueing part, but what is it with those preposterously high numbers in American Law suites. *The McDonald's forgot to put a pickle on my burger, I am going to sue them for 80 billion dollars*)
He took a 8 week vacation, to avoid having the company believe he was mentally fit.
9 years later, Now the guys is unemployed and apparently still looking for work because he didn't get the 25 million dollars.

This guy sounds like an idiot to me.

That's pretty sad though, I don't know what I'd do aye, probably have a smoke(Since he just took a cigarette break) and try to get the fire alarm to go off. If only Ipods or something were invented then haha.(Yes my names Dausaua on YouTube)

Yeah, I'd say that filing a lawsuit for an emotionally traumatizing incident where you're stuck in a 4x4 cube for 41 hours through absolutely no fault of your own while several security guards notice you on the monitor and do nothing while elevator repair staff fail to check your elevator after all the others is pretty stupid, right?

I watched the time-lapse video. When the doors opened, he just kind of walked out of there. Also, On one of the other cameras it had a guy on a ladder working on something for a long time.

Yeah it would have been pretty f*cked up to be in his shoes during that 41 hours but to sue for 25 Million is a bit over the top!

Yes it is because he wasted a lot of money on lawyers but got none, this is just like gambling and gambling is stupid.

If I am ever stuck in an elevator, I will just get naked and start masturbating. Hopefully that will get the security officers' attentions AND no one will be able to publicly show a video of me pacing around and going crazy

It'll wind up on the internet one way or another ASE. 

BTW:

Here's the time lapse video. Kind of weird how the lights in his car were on the entire time, but the other cars got turned off and stuff.

Being stuck in an elevator for 41 hours would be horrific. I don't blame him for suing for so much, seriously, something should've been done much sooner.

The video looks exactly like The Sims when you put the game on fast forward mode

Thats awful, I feel so bad for the guy. You'd think that after a couple hours people would've started wondering where he went. I'm sad now.

I was thinking the same..

i love it when people dont understand lawsuits aren't about what a person "deserves"

PLAY FINAL FANTASY!!!

Wow, that'd be totally terrible.

I also like that at the end of the video there is an advertisement for Final Fantasy XIII, AWESOME!

Jesus 41 hours.

also Jesus 25 million.

41 hours without bathroom, food, adequate space is just insane. Imagine being completely bored out of your mind for 1 hour. Absolutely nothing. Not multiply that by 41.

I could see 1 million in damages... not 25 million though.

dude barely got six figures actually.

Supposedly, the security guys didn't see anything amiss when they glanced at the screen. So with this in mind, I'd probably start stripping and causing a ruckus in there to get them to pay attention.

All while praying to the heathen gods that the security footage doesn't end up on the internet
