Just when I think "people can't get any dumber...", someone goes and proves me wrong.

I mean seriously, what did he think was gonna happen?

holy fuck did he just fall down that elevator shaft? O_O

Imagine if he survived the fall, did the elevator come back down and crush him?

why did he think that ramming the elevator door was a good idea. Its not going to make the elevator come back any faster. And after he did it the first time, and saw the doors breaking he didnt think humm falling down an elevator shaft is a bad idea.

I have no sympathy for the stupid

uhm, I doubt he actually wanted to ram it. to me it looks more like he was hoping to still get in before the doors closed and couldn't react fast enough to brake

did you even watch it man?

He saw the elevator go down, he rammed once, and rammed twice.

Interestingly, he chose not to ram a third time =D

Someone needs to come up with a new standard for elevator doors or something... I mean that looked like it was a relatively light bump. Although after bending the damn thing he should've caught on, but oh well.

that is so hilariously misguided haha, I literally fell out of my chair even if this apparently has a rather :S ending.

this is on par with trying to curb-stomp oneself out of anger at dental costs or whatever, makes no sense.


edit: He might not have thought he'd fall down the shaft but after the second bump but a 3rd one had at least a better than good chance of making that elevator shaft go out of order which I guess might have been his motive.

Yeah it's irresistible, I've watched it like five times and still laugh, both before and after finding out he died. Poor guy though, probably shouldn't have done that.

Holy cow, that was hilarious. This guy had a deathwish. He must have broken his legs doing something simlar. What an idiot loll.....

Seriously though, his family may have a legal case vs. Blizzard. He played so much SC the genuinely thought he had become an ultralisk.

He said doing something similar. He means the reason he's in a chair in the first place is because he did something like try to karate kick an elevator door or incontrol.

No, he was clearly in a wheelchair in the first place because if he wasn't we wouldn't have this video.

I can't stop laughing, but I don't know if the video or everyone trying to explain past tense to tofucake is funnier (or maybe Carnac's warning ) . Thanks for sharing though it is horrible that he lost his life this way.

I probably would've stopped ramming after seeing that the door was moving a dangerous amount...
But in all seriousness, I am at a loss for words. Why would someone ram an elevator door like that? That doesn't make the thing come down any faster. >.<

Tofucake - read. He's saying the reason he was in a wheelchair in the first place was because he did something similar to what was shown in the video prior to the events of said video. He's not saying that he was in the motorized scooter because of the video.

Read, please

That's so funny, I've send to all my friends, even my boss received it.

Serious, if someone do something as dumb as that, he deserves to die.

There's no logical reason on ramming an elevator 3 times (remembering that he DID notice the door was damaged on the second ram) and keep going on with that.

I was joking with a friend, that elevator was going to "the hive" (Resident Evil) and after a few seconds going down slowly, it would go awesome faster to the 2000th floor under the surface. So that means he would have fell around 6.000m, so that would explain his death :D

Anyway, I love morbid things and will laugh everytime I remember this.

As someone said, this is a very unique way o dying...

I like how everyone just assumes this guy's too stupid to realize that'd he'd fall down the shoot. Maybe he actually wanted to die? For someone to be so aggravated in the first place to want to ram and break an elevator door down with his cart simply because no one opened it for him has likely got a real serious issue in his life. Maybe he's angry about his disability, and this was the last straw? I highly doubt that this guy didn't know what would happen if he rammed down the elevator door; from the video it didn't even look like he tried to do anything once he realized he was going down the chute. Or maybe it's an angry action that really clouded his judgment? It's so easy to look at it from an objective point of view and call the guy a moron, but I think that disregards a lot of issues that are probably relevant to really understanding what happened.

But it was pretty funny. Damn you internet.
