See this is why I´m scared of elevators...
I once was trying to stop an elevator from closing when I was like a 10 year old... so I put my hand between the door and it got stuck... I was so afraid because my hand was all the way inside the elevator and I could see the lights inside it like it was working like normal, except the door.
I started crying.. it was so horrible because it took me like 5 minutes to free my hand (with a help from a friend).. It was only 3 floor building so people didn't use the elevator much... But still I was scared to death that someone would presh the button on another floor
Its a horrible way to die... not because of the pain... But because of the FEAR...
The poor doctor probably saw the elevator comming up before it decapitated him

I feel sorry for him and his family, and also the woman that was inside the elevator.
