Jesse was caught in an elevator with a group of tourists but kept the situation under control: “People started to freak out. It was getting so hot. It’s claustrophobic. One poor girl had a fear of being trapped in elevators. Eventually, I managed to get the doors open so we could get air in… It relieved the tension. I took turns getting people that were freaking out over near the door. I didn’t want them sticking their heads out in case the elevator took off again.” Eventually firefighters freed the trapped people.
Mila got trapped with a group of people for 45 minutes: ”They were stuck in the elevator for 45 minutes, and it became very hot in there, but Mila and everyone else remained calm. There were fire trucks outside, and firefighters helped them get out.”
