We need to ban elevators since they kill sooooo many people just like guns.
Where are the elevator grabbers when you need them???
Pat Hingle's accident was described this way in movies.yahoo.com:
Offered title role in "Elmer Gantry" (1960) but could not do it due to near fatal accident; caught in an elevator in his West End Avenue apartment building that had stalled between the second and third floors, he crawled out, trying to reach the second floor corridor, lost his balance and fell 54 feet down the shaft, fracturing his skull, wrist, hip and most of the ribs on his left side, breaking his left leg in three places and losing the little finger on his left hand; Burt Lancaster won a Best Actor Oscar as Elmer Gantry
Sounds like the opening scene of Resident Evil.
It reminds me of that scene from Total Recall. Cohagen and Ahnold are fighting while going up the lift.
I'm sorry I clicked on this thread. Yuck.
