young doctor in Houston was decapitated by one bout 10 years ago...
I had an interview in the Conway LSU dept a few years back.
The elevator stopped between floors. They killed the power and we crawled out on a step ladder.
This facility had an elevator that killed a nurse a few years back.
That was heavy on my mind when crawling.
My 14 year old would choose using stairs when possible but she’s also very athletic.
I prefer the stairs when going up. I hate going down stairs since I feel like I’ll fall down the stairs.

Time flies. Try closer to 20 years for the Houston accident that decapitated the guy.

There was also the woman who drowned in an elevator in 2002, during Tropical Storm Allison
when the underground garage at the Bank of America building flooded in downtown Houston. The elevator filled with water and she had no way out.

Ms. Steinau told police the elevator had been out of service for a few days prior to the tragedy, but at the time of the accident the "Out of service" sign had been removed. She had rung for the elevator (with the intent of going to the sixth floor) and had already stepped into it and pushed the button for her floor when Nikaidoh tried to get into the car as the door was closing. As soon as she saw he was trapped by the doors, Steinau tried to hit the emergency stop button but was unable to do so before the rising elevator had partially decapitated Dr. Nikaidoh. The elevator continued upwards, finally stopping between the fourth and fifth floors. Steinau was trapped in the car along with Nikaidoh's cranial remains until she was rescued by firefighters. She was treated in the hospital's emergency room for shock.
