    I pulled the stop button once so a woman and I could get freaky in Vegas. The security officer was very nice about the whole thing over the intercom. Wished he'd spoken up a little sooner though, she got all pissed that some guy had been watching and I didn't get any more that night.

    Yes, the same one twice - and I was busting to go to the loo both times.

    Yep, I was. I was stuck for about 40 minutes. I was by myself. I used the phone to call the lift company - they said they'd be half an hour and could they do anything for me in the meantime. I asked for pizza and a six-pack of beer, but they declined ;-(.

    I lay down, had a snooze, practised coin tricks...

    My only fear now is being trapped in a lift that is crowded, or trapped when I'm busting to go to the loo!

    Yes, I have. It wasn't very long, but long enough for me to be scared of them now. I hate being in them anymore.

    No, but I think that I'd like to be just once and for less than three days. Preferably with another person. It would be nice to be able to be stuck with a stranger for a whole day and really get to know each other.

    No, I haven't. I ALWAYS take the stairs for that reason exactly.

    I was stuck in an elevator on the 4th floor of the Psych building when the power went out. Plus that, someone had called in a bomb threat. (it was finals week).

    Briefly...the elevator opened in between floors and we saw all these wires and stuff.

    Yes. We were jumping up and down when the elevator was going down, and suddenly dropped, and stopped. We called for help, and soon found outwe were stuck between the first and second floor. It was a friday, so if it had been an hour later, we'd be stuck until monday! Luckily, we got out soon.

    No, but I'm absolutely terrified of it. I get nervous everytime I get in one. Especially if they're old and ricketty. Or new and claustrophobic.

    No, but I did get trapped at the top of the second highest hill on a roller coaster as a thunderstorm was approaching. That was hair raising!
