Speaking of lifts:
I was in a London hotel a few summers ago with my friend and we were in the lift when it reached our floor but the door appeared to try to open but couldn't. The lift had stopped and we waited for a few seconds and when nothing happened it became apparent that something was wrong. So we pressed the button for our floor again and the door made a noise and looked like it tried to open but it still wouldn't. We kind of just looked at each other and started making jokes about being trapped and Terminator coming to get us and stuff lol. We waited for maybe 2 mins pressing the button and stuff and we were getting a bit pissed off because we were meant to meet one of our friends later that afternoon and thinking about what we were going to do. Finally my friend pressed the open door button and held it down and the door sort of creaked to life, it opened a tiny bit and stopped but it was enough for us to get our hand to it and we pushed it open. Funnily enough the lift had stopped halfway up to our floor, in that the actual floor was about half a meter up from the floor of the lift. We climbed up out of the lift and later we told the hotel reception about it so nothing bad happened. At the time we actually found it pretty funny so it wasn't as scary as it sounds. I'm not claustraphobic or anything either so I wasn't too bothered about it in the end.
