Boy uses umbrella to prevent elevator door from closing, causes free fall

For more:

A #boy put his umbrella's handle between #elevator doors to prevent it from closing in Fuzhou City, east China's Jiangxi Province. But suddenly the elevator closed and went into free fall while breaking the umbrella handle. The lift stopped at the 25th floor, holding the boy captive. Fortunately, the rescue team arrived in time and saved the boy.

As an elevator tech I can with 100% certainty say that was NOT a “free fall”.

"Boy used umbrella to stop the closing doors of an elevator, gets stuck" is more accurate

[FRESHL]

As a certified free fall expert I can say this fall was not free. It cost 46 seconds of my life.

As a neighbour waiting 14 min every morning for my lift I can say I enjoyed this short film.

Am I the only one who was expecting a different kind of freefall

If that's a "free fall" then your next story should be how I can jog at the speed of light. I'm available for interviews.

As a former elevator i can confirm that fall wasn't free, it cost him one umbrella.

Safe to say that boy will never fuck with an elevator again

[skoolie_life]

As an elevator economist, I can assure you that this fall was not free. The ride cost him one umbrella and a clean pair of underpants.

If this was actually a free fall, the kid wouldn't be alive.

Boy, :"(Puts umbrella between the doors)"
Elevator:"And I took that personally. "

As NOT an elevator tech everyone can figure out this was not a free fall.

I thought he was gonna start floating or something. Glad he was okay

[TrainfanJanathan]

That wasn't a free fall. Unless you count falling at 0.0001mph a free fall.

As an elevator with a passion for umbrellas, I can certify with 99% certainty that this caused the boys rescue team great pleasure.

As a professional youtube commenter, I cn safely say that this is the most relevant comment to the video.

[NanaMageTV]

Kid: "Dad, come on in"
Dad: "Wait, someone's calling.

That wasn't freefall, normal operation speed. Wow people are gullible.

As a youtube title click master-baiter, I will definitely call that a 'free fall'
