Saw that a few days ago on another forum.

My question was... who the hell doesn't piss like 20 times / s*** a bunch of times in 40 hours.

Are you retarded?
Firstly he does take a piss, and secondly what is he supposed to be s***ting/pissing out constantly, they weren't bringing him drinks and meals in there.

There was a movie like this called "Stuck" and it starred two actors from Stargate SG-1. They have a strange f*** in there right infront of these other people.

I'd take the opportunity to go over all that content I've had fed to me via the tube over the years and come up with something cool and unique. it's something I've always wanted to do, but been too busy to


honestly - how often in life do you get 40 hours to yourself with *no* distraction of any kind.


seriously - lack of s***house aside, that was a gift. the poor guy will probably never realise it though

Ever done the 40 hour famine? Not too difficult to keep on going, even when you're hungry.

I'd imagine he'd be even less hungry/thirsty seeing as he's not spending much energy.

40 hour famine you can still drink, and you're not locked in a box with nothing to do.

White never went back to work at the magazine. Caught up in media attention (which he shunned but thrilled to), prodded by friends, and perhaps provoked by overly solicitous overtures from McGraw-Hill, White fell under the sway of renown and grievance, and then that of the legal establishment. He got a lawyer, and came to believe that returning to work might signal a degree of mental fitness detrimental to litigation. Instead, he spent eight weeks in Anguilla. Eventually, Business Week had to let him go. The lawsuit he filed, for twenty-five million dollars, against the building’s management and the elevator-maintenance company, took four years. They settled for an amount that White is not allowed to disclose, but he will not contest that it was a low number, hardly six figures. He never learned why the elevator stopped; there was talk of a power dip, but nothing definite. Meanwhile, White no longer had his job, which he’d held for fifteen years, and lost all contact with his former colleagues. He lost his apartment, spent all his money, and searched, mostly in vain, for paying work. He is currently unemployed.

Looking back on the experience now, with a peculiarly melancholic kind of bewilderment, he recognizes that he walked onto an elevator one night, with his life in one kind of shape, and emerged from it with his life in another. Still, he now sees that it wasn’t so much the elevator that changed him as his reaction to it. He has come to terms with the trauma of the experience but not with his decision to pursue a lawsuit instead of returning to work. If anything, it prolonged the entrapment. He won’t blame the elevator.

Whoa that's deep.

And what that's the go with taking 41 hours to free someone from an elevator? I find that hard to believe.

Humans depending on the environment & circumstannces generally only survive about 3 days without water.

After 40 hours without water he would definetly havebeen feeling it.

Lock me up in an elevator then, $100k minimum for 40 hours, what a wage.

Both those videos kept stalling and buffering and carrying on, and I just thought "y'know, I just don't have the patience for this."

OH, THE IRONY.
