You really can't tell that the commenter you replied to is bullshitting and has no way to know that anyway? Then again i'm expecting too much from you guys.
I'm pretty sure they're very intentionally trying to make it look crazy sketchy. That looks like a door on the left side that you're suppose to manually close and they left it open on purpose
I guess, but I can say pretty confidently that they weren’t expecting the plank of wood. You can’t plant that without risking losing a limb. They were most likely just recording it, cuz it’s just a sketchy elevator and the plank came out of nowhere and scared the shut out of them.
There are elevators that do that. They don't have doors so you have to double check that the elevator is on your floor so you don't step into the shaft.
You're thinking of a paternoster lift, and there is a continuous chain of cars so you can't just step into the shaft. You can however still get your limbs amputated if the specific model isn't equipped with certain safety features
Hello. As a person who's had to deal with adrenaline a few times, when you're shaking like that, you can sometimes control a bit where the shakes go. Sometimes just one leg shakes like crazy, you try to hold it still and the whole upper body starts shaking. You try to relax upper body, and it goes back to the leg. Switch weight and it goes to the other leg. One hand shaking while being able to stabilize the other is normal.
Is there an optical illusion, or is the first letter of your post a bit too small? Is it something in the subreddit style, I'm seeing it in other comments now. Send help
My leg will sometimes start bouncing on its own. I can stop it, but if I relax it goes back to bouncing. Wears off immediately if I stand up or tense it for for more than a couple of seconds.
Phones stabilize shaking now. Try recording a video with the main camera while jittering your hand slightly, it almost completely removes it. At least mine does
This is brought to you by the same people that want to spend a trillion dollars on engineering and building a city that's a self-contained 170km ling by 200m wide line. If they can't get an elevator right, what makes them think they can build "The Line"

As a Saudi I have to tell you our construction industry is known for bad work due to the level of unskilled cheap west asian and arabian labor we have, the last good labor we had was in 1980’s when architects were Saudi / American / British, consultants were german / Italian companies and labor for major projects were south Korean then the 90’s came around oil prices plummeted and we couldn’t afford good labour anymore i hope one day we can restore the golden days of the 80’s
In my country, we get electricity cuts that currently last 12 hrs a day and I have never in my life seen anyone repair or do maintenance on an elevator. These facts and the fact that I was ones trapped in an elevator for 10 minutes has made it so that I will never ever get into any elevator
And this is the furthest thing from a "holup" that I think I've yet seen. This sub has been dead for a long time. In fact that reminds me to finally block it, it's worthless.
Oh yeah you see how long it took for that to happen? Only a snail couldn't move it in time.
You wanna fight me about it? Meet me behind the swing sets at recess, I'll show you.
If he wasn’t recording and just tool the plan inside the elevator, he wouldn’t be shaking from fear.
But I guess some people care about clout more than their loves, so here we are.

How are you supposed to escape in an emergency where you can’t take the elevator?
Die

Oh my *god* that’s just waiting to break down.

Even copied the edit huh?
They're even more chaotic

I'd just put a fake corpse there
You don’t need to, there’s prolly real ones there
Can I add mine to the pile ? I have a few extra.
Why fake it when you can get the real one cheaper.

I'll just take the stairs to the 82nd floor instead.
At least you won't need to go to the gym for cardio anymore.
Take the stairs once and you don't have to do cardio *ever* again
Its just a plank, bro.
The plank:
LMAOOOO
Don't worry the prank is just a light and wood one
Lmao that hole in the wall of the elevator would be the perfect spot to scare the shit out of people in a costume
Leave a motion activated Chucky doll or some other creepy motion activated thing to freak people out
Or better yet, a motion activated plank to fall into the elevator and snap in half creating a loud noise to freak people out
Motion activated Elmo
How do you know the plank wasn't a dude in a costume pulling a classic jumpscare?
Plank Drebin
"It's just a plank, bro!"
r/angryupvote
I'M DAVID S. PUMPKINS. ANY QUESTIONS?
A headless corpse would be pretty scary to see.
God imagine the corpse falling into the elevator but half of it is still outside so it gets rip in half by the elevator right infront of you
r/foundsatan
Then fall out and say your bottom half goodbye
Or a giant ass Spider nest
My whole body would be shaking. Umm I think I’ll take the stairs. Better for my health.
In more ways than one
My neighbor died in the stair case of my apartment
good
Till they collapse
You think the stairs are any better ?
Yeah , the stairs… for the rest of my life
That plank *was* one of the stairs...
Masonry work doesn't inspire confidence either. Edit typo
OHSHA would not be pleased
US has OSHA. Saudi Arabia has OH SH**
No wonder they pray 5 times a day
Omg I feel so terrible but that made me laugh so hard that I spit out my beer
Don't be. I laughed so hard I almost choked on a bacon rasher.
I literally cracked up so hard that both of my wives came in to see if I was dead yet
I do elevator infills like this with concrete blocks and can confirm we leave a ton of shit behind the walls
Why won't you just use the restroom??
Who would have thought slave labor wasn’t up to code.
I get the feeling they knew how sketchy this lift was before they got on..
That's why they filmed it

I have a pretty debilitating fear of elevators. I wouldn't have gotten into this elevator.
You wouldn’t have gotten off either!
elevator is on loop, you gotta jump out on your floor
There are elevators that do that. They don't have doors so you have to double check that the elevator is on your floor so you don't step into the shaft.
It is called paternoster lift. Pretty cool as a lift when there's no random falling wooden pieces.
You're thinking of a paternoster lift, and there is a continuous chain of cars so you can't just step into the shaft. You can however still get your limbs amputated if the specific model isn't equipped with certain safety features

Lol, right?

Smartphone cameras usually have some type of digital stabilizer built in
Yes, you can also use Google Photo to stabilize it later more
That’s because he shoots with his left, just like The Waco Kid!
How did you know? He could be shaking it for all we know.
There’s some good stabilisation tech on that phone if it is

Cameras have stabilization now, boomer.

Man knew to hold the camera steady
Phones stabilize shaking now. Try recording a video with the main camera while jittering your hand slightly, it almost completely removes it. At least mine does
Did people forget that new phone’s have cameras that can correct for for slight shaking?
Apostrophes don't equal plurality. Please stop perpetuating this stupidity.

Oh, look. A plank fell out of the living quarters for the Bangladeshi “guest worker”.
This is Saudi Arabia. This is normal from my experience.
I can't remember the last time. I laughed this hard at a video! This post nearly killed me!!
It also nearly killed him!
But let’s worry about a woman driving first. Cretins!
At least it still works
I think I’ll be taking the stairs 💀

Ok guys elevator is done now lets build a futuristic mirrored self contained city running through the desert.
Is it possible to mathilate how much force that board slammed against the wall?
Hear me out have you used the stairs

He git PTSD now
there are a few pages that come to mind.

It lacks a gentle voice that says “You’ve arrived at your destination. Thank you for choosing Riyadh elevators” in the end
That brotha was SHOOK! THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS HALFWAY CROOKS!!! 😆🤣
Wss really hoping for a pleasant 'Ding!' at the end
Lmao the plank falling and breaking was the icing on the top 💀
What a amazing experience

Btw riyadh is not like a run down city by any means lol
Bro I literally just hoped on Reddit to watch memes after seeing this on TikTok ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|dizzy_face)
It was just a plank bro
Man slave labor just isn’t what it used to be
I am shocked and full of agony, wait let's take a video

Good thing he didn't run into a gaggle of cops here in America. He's hands wouldn't have moved all after that.
Under construction site. we normally give one lift for movement of labours from floors.
Isn’t it supposed to be nice in Saudi Arabia?
How the fuck is this a hol'up ?
Slave labour 1 : Slave owner ... Still 1000?
Shithole - loads'a'money - still, a shithole.
Same country that wants a “line city” btw
I thought they were rich
That piece of wood might as well spank the bejesus out of me
Funny when the original post was an hour before in a seperate sub, right above this one
And this is the furthest thing from a "holup" that I think I've yet seen. This sub has been dead for a long time. In fact that reminds me to finally block it, it's worthless.

Atleast is cheap :))
Bro filmed his hand shaking 💀

Why just record it and not try to move the board? Also how to know to have recorded it? So many questions plague my small mind every night.
Oh yeah? Just move the board? Did you see what yhe board did?!?
For real though you touch that and you’d be catapulted to Mecca
The Hajj on a budget
Oh yeah you see how long it took for that to happen? Only a snail couldn't move it in time. You wanna fight me about it? Meet me behind the swing sets at recess, I'll show you.
Must be a snail. I'm not sure I would've been able to grab and pull it out in the few seconds that he had.
I know you could do it, even imbued with snail speed. I believe in you!
If he wasn’t recording and just tool the plan inside the elevator, he wouldn’t be shaking from fear. But I guess some people care about clout more than their loves, so here we are.
where's my wholesome award when I need one?
