    Firing a gun inside an elevator seems like a really terrible idea, that's gonna cause major hearing damage. Being deaf in a zombie outbreak isn't gonna help things. The handrail he was using as a weapon could have been used as leverage, to try to open the doors enough to squeeze out.

      Not sure If getting out that way is the best idea zombies could bite him while he squeezes also if they rush him while he's prying to open they'll get in. I'd use the guys body to try and reach the top of the elevator and try and get out off the elevator shaft and if it looks hopeless you could pop yourself with the pistol

    The situation kinda reminds me of the case of Ludger Sylbaris. In 1902, he was on Martinique, an island in the Carribean when he was arrested and placed in a solitary cell. While he was in there, the volcano on the island erupted and possibly up to 50,000 people in the city of Saint-Pierre died from both the gas, but also the pyroclastic debris. The position of his cell meant Sylbaris survived with minimal injuries while the entire island around him was destroyed. If I'm not mistaken, the population never recovered and only a couple thousand people inhabit it today
    Edit: the year was 1902, not 1802

According to the last census it was 4,121. And if you'll take notice, I said "possibly up to 50,000 people" referring to the largest estimate of loss of life. You're technically right, more conservative estimates put it at around 30,000 but the estimation bracket is between 30,000-50,000. So yeah, my bad on the year, but the other information is right.

    • @JulesAngst
      @JulesAngst 2 роки тому +22

      If there is heavy bleeding, better fix a tourniquet. After putting it on, you will have more time to assess the wound and fix pressure bandages. If you can, mark the time when it was put on. It takes approximately 12 hours to effectively kill a limb, so you have realistically between 1-8 hours to stabilize the wound and move to safety. Another thing is that if a fracture is present, you might not see all of the bleeding inside. The use of a tourniquet makes sure all the leaky veins inside close up. Properly securing it will be extremely painful, and if you can slide a finger under the tourniquet, it's not tight enough. Stay safe.

      That's the premise of the original Marvel Zombies setting. All the heroes are fully aware of what they're doing, but they're just so hungry they can't stop themselves. The best part is afterwards when you get scenes of these fully sentient zombies that used to be heroes discussing how fucked what they did was and freaking out about it.

    i would of stayed in the elevator taking out zombies when i had the chance using the rail, if i was smart enough to think of that while i was there that is. however once i saw the swat guy i would start trying to find a way out. try to get him to completely secure the floor. its pretty high up so it should be possible to barricade it completely, double tap all the bodies and throw them out the window. at that point your "shark cage" is now an entire floor instead of a cramped elevator, which although realistically isnt all too much, it allows more scavenging for helpful tools, being less cramped should help with your overall mental state, and you can try and relax a little bit as you plan your next moves

When mentioning calling emergency services, he says that one would of course first let them know about the wife's danger, then the fact they themselves were trapped. So many "survival bros" I've met are incredibly focused on themselves, and love to instantly go "I'd kill and eat everyone lol". The fact that he actually gets that looking out for those close to you is important and considers it in his "what you should do" as well really shows he knows his stuff.

    "Search for supplies"? I know this is a good idea in any post-apocalyptic scenario, but isn't he in an office? Would it be worth the effort?
    In the case of food: He could find someone's sneaked-in cookies (or something similar), but going outside seems more worthwhile (it's more risky but you are more likely to find something).
    In the case of weapons an office may be even worse about that: your choices (the ones off the top of my head) are pens and chairs, the first being very ineffective and the latter too tiring.
    On the plus side I saw some water coolers, so water wouldn't be an issue probably.

      Personally, during the worst-case scenario, my first place to go isn't to the supermarket. Everyone would be going there to raid for supplies. You want to go to a RESTURANT. They have a lot of supplies. Lost of dry goods and so forth. Fridges that if you open minimally will stay cold for a while depending on the outside environment and at least in the US might have hidden guns and weapons. (Which is why going to the Winchester isn't exactly the worst idea.) They have a lot of tables, chairs, etc to barricade with. They would have easy roof access for maintenance and the like and many of them in the more rural parts aren't high up enough to cause that much damage if you need to hop down. (Many restaurants in my area are single-story.) So technically speaking for me, I'm heading to the nearest restaurant and barricading myself in. Most in particular Asian/Italian restaurants would have massive bags of rice/dry pasta. Eat what will spoil first as you preserve the meat in various ways. (Old old sushi was salted fermented fish in a bed of rice, pork barrels were whole cut-up hogs layered in salt.) So like I said, a restaurant is a very good place to go. The only problem is the people who might be infected still there as far as I see.

      Actually, a decent-sized office building is a gold mine for supplies if you're clever about it. We already know this one has a dedicated maintenance crew, which means there is certainly a supply of hand tools to use as weapons. Beyond the bounty of water, any break rooms would at least have what your coworkers stashed in the fridge plus whatever vending machines might be available. We also saw that this building had a security team, so checking their area for munitions and other supplies is a no-brainer. Any building directory would label which floors the most important stuff is on, and fire safety maps that show the nearest emergency exit would also show the layout for each floor making clearing the place much easier.

    As far as I know, elevator hoistway doors won’t open too far (definitely less than 6”, most likely only up to half an inch or so) by design, bc they don’t want people on the floors to try opening the doors and then fall into the hoistway. However, if the protagonist had some sort of long stick and opened the car doors enough, he could have opened the interlock at the top of the hoistway doors enough to open them all the way.
    Also, I believe the hoistway doors are designed to close on their own, but it’s possible that someone installed the Gibbs at the bottom of the doors horribly, so they create too much friction to close like they are supposed to. Although, forcing them closed would have also been an option if he could have gotten them open at all.
    Thirdly, as long as the hoistway doors are open, the car is already incapable of moving if wired correctly because the interlock contacts wouldn’t be engaged.
    The escape hatch thing was correct, they are usually locked from the outside. You’d also probably need a ladder to get up there at all.
    If the bar on the wall really was loose enough to get out of the wall mounts, then he could have used that to open the interlock and get out (unless it was too thick to get into the space between the car wall and the hoistway wall)
    Marcello climbed down the elevator shaft? I’m not sure I buy that. Where did he enter from? It’s not like you can just go from the motor room into the shaft. He wouldn’t be able to open the hoistway doors without a drop key. And even if he somehow could, the only things that would be in the hoistway that he could climb down with are the car ropes, spreader beams, and hoistway beams, which MIGHT be possible. But again, he shouldn’t have been able to access the hoistway.
    Okay cool, he did the smart thing and used the handrail to help open the doors.
    So I guess the whole issue with the elevator is that there was a problem with the motor? That’s really unlucky/lucky timing

      @@reelgesh51 late reply, but if there’s an issue with something for an elevator car or there’s a power outage, the car could go on fire service or run off emergency power, which usually brings the car down to the lobby or other egress floor and opens the doors. I just meant that while elevators are running normally, you usually can’t physically open the doors by yourself because of the door interlocks and door resitrictors. If the doors lose power, I think it’s possible you could push the doors open, but you gotta be at a landing.
      So, there are still systems to open the doors automatically in case of emergency, but I guess they weren’t working in this film. There are some cases where people could be trapped in an elevator, though, I’ve heard it happen. But I’m not sure what in particular went wrong.
      Here’s an anecdote. Someone in the motor room cut a wire that they weren’t supposed to while I was on an elevator. Car went on fire service, and I was brought to the lobby where the doors remained open until the issue was fixed.

I’ve been stuck in the elevator 2 times in the last month. I only needed someone to direct me to the lock on the doors, as my sketchy elevator doesn’t have automatic doors.

    the weirdest thing to me is how people legitimately fear zombie apocalypses and talk about it, but I barely see anyone hold this same level of fear or have conversations about asteroid apocalypses

    • @CadenPlays5000

      It's because if a zombie apocalypse happens, there's a chance you'll survive. However if an asteroid collides with the earth big enough to send the world into an apocalypse, it'll either destroy the world entirely, kill a large amount of the population, or remove a lot of things needed for survival

      You cant really do anything with asteroids, either you divert them and copy "Armageddon" or they hit and literally everything is so fucked there's nothing left to make a movie about.

      It's like the SCP lore
      Yea there are monsters/being that you would completely fear
      But "when days breaks" comes in
      You can only despair about it
      Till it effects you and absorbs you for eternal torment

      imo i reckon it’s the same sort of thing of how people aren’t really afraid of climate change. Due to the nature of how it’s not an immediate/tangible threat (until it’s too late) people just don’t really appreciate its lethality

    So glad people like you make videos on movies that have interesting concepts but contain so much bad writing, directing, stupidity as the only plot device that makes things happen.. You save me from getting pissed off at the completely dumb stuff, apart from that scene where the main character literally let the guy turn into a zombie and almost kill him just because... So thank you.. Sincerely, my mental health..
