stoyI am riding a tiny elevator
Absolutely fucking awful…
Elevators without an inner door are quite common in Sweden, but most elevators are bigger than this.
Amount of room was my issue… not the lack of door… tbh, I didn’t even notice the lack of door
SomeonelolThat’s terrifying. I can imagine a strap hanging off like a backpack or something and getting caught in the gap as the elevator rises.
That’s something that really fascinates me after moving here. Sweden has a lot of water wings on stuff compared to the US but the elevators feel like they were designed to cull the weakest
Looks similar to the one in our previous building.
Just big enough to let the new dishwasher ride alone to our appartment, with practically no place to spare, so appr. 60x60cm².
Had a mirror on one wall, trying to make you feel slightly less claustrophobic. :-)

Did you die?
If you are still in there, I would have serious concerns over its destination.

🌞 Alexander Daychilde 🌞eh, it’s not THAT great of a circle…
Like a confused TARDIS.
Just realized: Does the cabin not have a door??
Then it would be not dull, but terrifying! 😳

They do have safety mechanisms to detect dangerous situations, but we have these fun signs on many of them…
TIL
Probably less actual than felt risk, but still…
On the other hand, I am also slightly frightened by moving stairs.
, I am also slightly frightened by moving stairs.
This is reasonable. And a reasonable level o fear, specifically.
Also, I love the term “Klämrisk”.
This is exactly what deliberate fake-Swedish would look like :-)

Risk of crushing
🧑💥
Dangerous to transport goods in elevators that lack an inner door or gate
(for anyone else that is curious what it says)
MinnesotaGoddamnope it says risk of clams you can’t lie to me
Mmmmm, steamed clams
Oh, are you between levels in this picture? Is that why it looks like a doggy door?
Looks like a coffin.
Have you been in a coffin before?
Not yet.
Given your username, this is actually surprising.

cabillaudI love caving. Show me a hole in the ground and if I can fit in it, I’m going in.
I would take the stairs everyday instead of getting in that thing.
SnausagesinaBlanketIn the Clarksville caves there is a section just before getting out called the chest compressor. Had a guy freakout that was maybe 40 feet from seeing daylight and 14 of us had to all crawl backwards to the core due to his panic attack and go out the way we came in.

NOPE NOPE NOPE
🇰 🌀 🇱 🇦 🇳 🇦 🇰 🇮 This is one of the ressons why I would never do the extended tour of Moaning Caverns again. When I was in 6th grade on a field trip there, we were given the choice to do either the regular tour where you just take the stairs down into the main chamber, they tell you about it and turn off the lights which I had done a few times before on other field trips and with my family on vacation, or to rappel down and explore more of the cave. Other than 1 teacher, I was the only one who wanted to do the full tour.
Rappeling down was scary enough, but paled in comparison to crawling through the super small spaces down below the main room. I am so tall now that I don’t even think I could squeeze through some of the areas I remember.
Just nightmare fuel. heh. But part of it is that as I get older, I get more and more clastrophobic. My young brain didn’t pay attention, but my old brain doesn’t like getting into situations where it could be hard to breathe. Like… I’m a chair user, but I transfer and can even put the chair in my trunk and get into the car and drive. But I worry about being in an accident and being unable to get out of the car - not only for things like fire, but if my body were to be bent, I could easily get into a position where it would be difficult to breathe. And that sometimes triggers some mild panic that I have to calm before I can go drive. heh
When you’re young, you know you’re going to live forever. As I’ve gotten older, I appreciate how many times I haven’t died. :)
My stage name is The Ground
I’ve been in an elevator like this once. It made a bunch of scary sounds and did that shit that a roller coaster sometimes does as it’s going up a big slop where it feels like it slips a little bit. I used the stairs the rest of the time I was there.
th3dogcowis that a window or a cat flap?
