Locked up in a Lift?

Might be useful, if you happen to get locked-up in a lift (elevator):

  • Do not panic. You are a about to experience an adventure, enjoy it!
  • Look for “Alarm” or “Call” buttons on the panel. If you find one, press it & stay calm.
  • In case theres a “fan”, switch it on.
  • Tell yourself that a minute’s time is really a hour long & theres ample time to stay patient.
  • The lift’s doors never have locks, try to open it from inside. Never worry if it doesn’t work out.
  • Sit down & talk to someone, if you have a mobile.
  • Generally, lifts block signals to your mobile. You can play a game or write some SMSes.
  • Viola! Surprisingly theres noone to disturb you, think about your future.
  • You can survive without food & water for atleast a day. Lie down & take a nap.
  • Keep tapping the walls, if its more than a day’s wait.
  • Take care of yourself; Its only you who can.
