Chinese Delivery Man Found in Elevator
Ming Kuang Chen a Delivery man for Happy Dragon must have been quite upset after spending more than 3 days in a stuck express elevator. Firefighters said that when they asked Chen how long he had been in the elevator, he pointed to his watch and swirled his finger repeatedly around the dial.
Apparently he had used that little emergency phone in the Elevator several times, but due to language barriers or a complete idiot on the other side of the line, couldn't explain that he was stuck in an elevator.
I would think that after receiving 5 or 6 calls from the same elevator, the elevator company would at least send someone over to see what the deal was.
Also, I would think that after the entire apartment building had been searched with police door to door and bloodhounds and cadaver dogs someone would have noticed a stuck elevator.
Maybe they were doing him a favor and allowing him to starve so he could experience euphoria.
