Question.

[Guest Felonies!]

Which way to die inside an elevator shaft would be worse: being at the bottom and having the elevator come down from above you, or be on top of the car and have it go up and crush you into the ceiling?

Can't happen. There are magnetic brakes on the top, to prevent such a collision with the ceiling.

Yes, but wouldn't there conceivably be the same "failsafe" on the bottom as well? I'm sure it is possible for the failsafe to actually fail.

[USC Wuz Robbed! 0]

No. If you're standing in the shaft on the bottom, you're getting crushed. The elevator does have a FIRST floor, which means... the bottom. So unless you were 2 inches tall, you're dead. Not as much with the top scenario.

So, your elevator doesn't go to the top floor?

[USC Wuz Robbed! 0]

there's a space between the top floor and the "roof". At least in the ones I've seen. Yeah I'm sure there are some elevators with no space in the top, but I'm thinking of the ones that does.

I'd rather be on top.

[MarvinisaLunatic 0]

Im guessing you're dead either way so it doesnt matter.

Well, let's say there aren't.

[Guest Vitamin X]

The bottom. I think it'd be more horrifying being crushed by something that being crushed into something.

And you think that elevators scrape the foundation when the get to the first floor? I would say they build the shaft several feet below how far the elevator is to go for maintenance issues and such. I would say 3-5 feet minimum.

Let's say some rabid gunman, pointing his gun at you, is telling you that, if you don't want to be shot, you have to make out with Donald Rumsfeld. And there he is before you, Donald Rumsfeld, fresh from vomiting after consuming too many oysters. And we're talking a lot of oysters. The gunman doesn't specify whether he will shoot to wound or to kill, or even if he's going to shoot you whether or not you make out with Donald Rumsfeld, who may very well puke again—maybe even while you're making out with him during an embrace that cannot be broken or else the gunman may shoot you for that. Did I mention that you have to make out with Rumsfeld until the gunman tells you to stop? There's no set time limit here; it's all up to his sick, sick whim.

 

What would you do?

[vivalaultra 0]

Hmmm....are the oysters fried...or on the half-shell? It does make a difference.

I'd just start masturbating furiously and hope that's either confusing or satisfying enough to get me out of there.

[Dandy 0]

I would bust out a Dwight Schrute kick on the gunman, then fuck Rumsfeld's granddaughter. Providing she was 18 or over.

I bet if Dwight pulled out the kick it would be a different story. My powers are a sham compared to his.

[Giuseppe Zangara 0]

So far, only Edwin MacPhisto has supplied a viable solution, given the reasonable assumption that the rabid gunman might also be a sexual deviant.

I'd make out with Rumsfeld, no question.

 

Now if it was Hitlery, I'd take the bullet.

[Guest Hotbutter Spoontoaster]

Hitlery? Hitlery?

This question gets asked all the time, stupid dickheads. What are you, new?

 

Com C-3P0/R2 and bullshit your way through a nonsensical escape.

 

That way you survive and blow up Christopher Lee's Head or cut off the Death Star.

 

 

However; were those aforementioned niggas not around; I'd rather get smooshed and die going up, just for the whimsy of it.

 

Fuckin' pussies think otherwise and are gay.
