(April 21, 2008)--A just-released surveillance video of a New York production manager’s 41-hour ordeal aboard a stalled elevator is producing some Internet buzz.
It happened late on a Friday night in 1999.
Nicholas White, 34, had left the building for a cigarette break, and as he returned to his 39th-floor office, the elevator suddenly stopped between floors.
He pressed the alarm button repeatedly, but the building was deserted and no one heard the alarm.
Time-lapse video shows him pacing.
The only food he had with him as a roll of Rolaids.
He was finally rescued late on a Sunday afternoon.
He won an undisclosed settlement after suing the managers of the midtown Manhattan skyscraper as well as an elevator maintenance company.
The video has been viewed hundreds of thousands of times since it was posted on YouTube.
