So I’m a member of a programming/event organization at my uni. We do concerts, games, lectures, and various events throughout the year.

Tonight we were cleaning up after a concert and loading a freight elevator up with stage equipment to send downstairs to receiving and the trucks.

I was manning the elevator for a bit when one of the stage company guys told me to place a metal sheet over the gap between the elevator and floor so the carts can move easily on it.

Dumb ol’ me had trouble handling the heavy sheet and it ended up falling through the gap and straight down the elevator shaft, cutting a hydraulic line and causing the elevator to fall.

I managed to leap off the thing in time so I’m fine. Everyone thought I was fucking savage with the way I jumped off that thing, but honestly it was more of a slow descent than a sudden drop so ‘ 2‘

That elevator’s trashed, though. Hydraulic fluid everywhere.

So yeah, I broke an elevator and became Indiana Jones. Lucky me, I guess . 2.
