"He had a bicycle with him."

Is that legal?

Better than a stuck Escalator, I guess.

Is this one of those riddles where he can ride the elevator to the lobby in the morning because he can press the button, but can't do it in the afternoon because even with the bicycle to get him excited he can't press the button for his floor?

That's nothing, years ago in my old dorm, i had to be rescued from the elevator at least a couple times a week. Surprised nobody died in that thing.

Subby FAIL

Based on the headline, I expected the man to *only* have his bicycle.

Article makes no mention of naked elevator bicyclist!

This is earth shattering. Such an impossible coincidence will force me to rethink all of my world/universe view! Theology and cosmology and mathematics will be changed forever by the observance of this virtually inpossible event!

So presumably we were expecting the Lancashire Evening Post to be covering how a middle east peace deal was being brokered in Skipton, or that Burnley has been censured by the UN for trying to develop nuclear weapons?

I think I am agreeing with subby, who didn't really find this odd enought to consider the article worth submitting. Or I woke up this morning with a hyperbole in my ear.

Why didn't he use the bicycle to escape?

ParaHandy: Surely this was more Fark-worthy?

That would have been a repeat.

EVAH.

Heh, I got stuck in an elevator once with nothing to my car keys to entertain me.

Two hours later when I was finally extracted, the elevator guys were none to happy to find that I'd dismantled the entire interior of the elevator using my keys as a screwdriver and had laid out the pieces nicely in order of size, OCD-style.

But tell me man, was the hedgehog ok?

He had his bike with him? Well, at least he had something to do while stuck in the elevator/lift.

Great story. Compelling, and rich.

Very poor use of the meme subby
