elevator

Want to get frightened for Halloween? Why not ride a floorless elevator?

You're not my real dad!

Poor Amanda Carpenter lived through a truelife nightmare when she got stuck in an elevator...seven months ago. In a desperate attempt to be rescued, Carpenter (former Communication Director for Sen. Ted Cruz) tweeted to her 90,000 plus followers asking for help. 


It only gets worse...



Annd then we get the golden response...just a tad bit too late to make a difference. Good lookin out Amtrak...



We can only imagine what Carpenter was actually thinking, but her tweet does a decent enough job at appearing, well, thankful?



Amtrak tried to make amends, nonetheless:



It's too late though. The internet's already well aware of all this madness...

Also, if you want multiple angles you should ask the security guys for the tape.

I'll use the stairs... but only if they put "Way to go!" and "Good for you!" and "You're so smart and health conscious, here's a raise!" on the walls going up the staircase.
