to be honest, if you ever eat food at a restaurant or someone's house, you are literally eating people's dead skin cells that flake off everywhere and in the air traveling and landing on your food. Everyone is eating many people's dead skin cells when they eat as well as airborn particulates that come from people's breathing and speaking/talking/laughing at restaurants and you don't realize it either.
@@breakaway2x yes but that's not the same. It's different because she was decomposing. That's the worst part.

nah they figured out anyone could walk up there, she didnt take her meds and was having psychotic breaks, also previous to this she was posting pictures from different roof tops. she just fell in, the top was open when someone filmed walking on the roof
She didn't just fall in. It's not like it's some gaping hole that you can accidentally fall into! She either CLIMBED in, of her own accord (which I find hard to fathom), or she was killed, and disposed of in the tank (which would mean someone had to get her dead body up the ladder to the top of the tank, which is equally hard to fathom). So, still no answer as to how she DID end up in the tank, but she absolutely DID NOT just fall in! (It is possible she was acting out the events of Dark Water, too. The events in the film are too similar to just be coincidence)
Yeah. After watching the documentary and listening to what her own sister had to say (and other people saying she was leaving weird post-it notes everywhere and screaming in the lobby that she's crazy) it's really pretty uneventful. Sad, yes, but this ain't no ghost. She stopped taking her meds and had a psychotic episode.
Agree. I remember when I was younger and prescribed the anti-depressant Paxil for about 6 months and then suddenly stopped taking it and wow. I was crying all the time, having like these weird brain zaps, felt like I had the flu.
This feels like propaganda. The cop said their was no water found in her lungs then said that she killed her self in a water tank from not taking meds. Weird.
Cause it was run by corrupt trash with ties to more corrupt trash. Many of the deaths there were coordinated murders. The police were well aware it seems.
Actually according to the police report from the maintenance guy, he actually says he found her with the top open. And the top only weighs 20lbs according to the hotel staff. What the police failed to do was look at the water tanks. Matter of fact they didn’t even go on the roof initially.
Yo, to be fair the lid is between two tubes, so at night, and from far away, maybe the shadow of tubes was hiding the lid, or from distance it didn't seem weird 🤔
Whatever! This ruined an innocent life. We need to help Morbid! A passionate, talented, and innocent rising star immediately flunked for something he never did. He’s just minding his own and doing his best to reach his dreams and this happened! This is a major collateral damage!
@@bg6364 This is outrageous! He is minding his own life and business and suddenly got attacked like that! People can't feel his emotions cause they are not in his situation!

I think what happened was she had a psychotic break and started seeing things and she got to the roof via the fire escape and continued seeing those things and then she thought she could hide in the water tank but someone who worked there closed the lid without noticing her since she probably thought that worker was the things she was seeing so she stayed quiet and went deeper into the water tank to hide then the lid was closed and she was trapped Edit: she pressed the hold door button and the lid was already open
I haven't seen any of the videos but from this video it looks like the doors of the elevator are staying open I wonder if something was there and she was trying to get away from it
That couldve confused the automated doors and she was also pressing multiple buttons so she could have pressed the emergency open door button which left it open
She was bipolar and in a state of manic psychosis. There are plenty of articles that support this. This is also consistent with my observations as a registered nurse who worked in psychiatric inpatients for 8 years.
Please let this poor girls family have peace. She was off her meds and it was shown that anybody could walk up there AND get into the tank. She was not well and stopped taking meds that might have prevented this.
I already knew what happened I work with psych patients and immediately recognized her manic behavior it was obvious she made her way up there on her own accord also keep in mind around skid row this behavior is a very very common thing if you drive by you will most likely see several homeless behaving this way due to drugs or mental illness. Its a shame
Elisa pressed all the buttons and yet, the elevator doors never closed but after she left the elevator the doors closed, I find that really weird. The way Elisa was acting was very creepy, the way she moved her hands, she also looked scared.
@@jackpotdadon Elisa Lam's sister spoke with the authorities months later, Elisa suffered from paranoia and type 1 bipolar disorder, in addition to not taking her medications, it was said that while staying at the hotel she had erratic and strange behavior. and referring to the water tank her body was found without any alteration which was very rare and there was no access to the roof above, unless you went up some small stairs!
@@jackpotdadon SOLVED- Her glasses fell off when she looked in the tank out of simple curiosity. She got in to get them after realizing she needed them to climb down fire escape ladder. Were the glasses found in the tank?
I just saw this on Netflix. The chopper offering the 'daylight' for the police search that night would have noticed the latch on the water tower open! IMO.
SOLVED- Her glasses or phone fell off when she looked in the tank out of simple curiosity. She got in to get them after realizing she needed them to climb down fire escape ladder. Were the glasses found in the tank?
The full story was explained on Netflix. She suffered from Bipolar Disorder, and wasn't taking her meds. She hallucinated that someone was chasing her, and she got up to the roof by a fire escape, and got into the water tank to hide. She couldn't get out, and subsequently drowned as a result. The tank lid was open when a maintenance man was looking into the problem with the water, and saw Elisa Lam's body and he closed the lid.
I think she was having a psychotic episode, but someone was taking advantage of that. I still think someone was involved.. It’s not a crazy idea, she was very open to meeting new people and that hotel was literally home to serial killers.
Thats the strange thing. If you check the rooftop there is not really anything on there besides the water tanks so how could they possibly have missed an open water tank lid. It just seems impossible
After watching the documentary she definitely died on an accident & was having a psychological breakdown and strong illusions. The two big facts being ....the movie she use to watch as a kid about a woman in a lift who then gets kn the roof water tanks that's too much of a consequence and the fact her parents said she had very strong illusions and would become very delusional and violent
It's not a mystery. She was in a manic state. My wife has bipolar disorder and when she's manic she does some weird things. I feel bad for her family that people want to keep making a mockery of her death.
It’s important to note that when the police got there they found the lid closed. However, this was done by the maintenance worker once he discovered the dead body, so the worker had originally found the lid open and when he saw the dead body he closed it before going back down to report it. It is also worth noting that the police did do a search of the entire hotel including the rooftop with dogs but completely missed out the tankers - even though apparently helicopters were also used in the search.
The Netflix documentary explains it all in the last episode the best which i totally agree. The only mystery is what happened to her phone, but if she was unstable, she could have done anything with it herself.
@@darkerstar911 Its ok I get it, I love a good conspiracy too. No Netflix isn’t always right but give me your mountain of evidence that contradicts everything said by the people there and the “UA-cam detectives” who were reporting on it at the time. Ignorance at its finest
Wouldn't Elisa figure that she sounded the fire alarm when she went out on the roof? And then climbed inside the water tank to hide? When she heard sirens, which is common in a city with 15 million people she "hid". She was hiding in the elevator on video to support my theory. Her hands are describing the elevator to someone in the hall who most likely informed her to use the stairwell outside. I think she was on the top floor coming from the room she was relocated to.
I am so confused, 1) they say the footage were edited because there are some stranger pass by and already identified not a suspect 2) footage meant for public to help identified Elisa Lam if they could edit out the suspect and edit the footage time, and even slow down the footage Why don’t they remove the additional chunk of empty lif scene? Why don’t they just remove the additional scene after Elisa left the lif I had a feeling they trying to plant some narrative in us If we feel it’s horror it because the director want us to feel that way
I feel really bad for the maintenance man who was inspecting the tank after complaints of low pressure and water having a strange color, he thought it was just plumbing issues but instead he found a dead body inside the water tank. That must've been really traumatizing.
Before watching Netflix I thought she was murdered & after watching it I strongly believe she was murdered.....just my opinion. Something does not seat right with the keys to the rooftop and elevator situations. Then her lungs was not filled with fluid similar to drowning. Something just is not right.
You can believe what you want, but there's no evidence whatsoever supporting foul play. There are other ways to go to the rooftop, and she could die from hypothermia rather than drowning. It was February in LA.
Elisa was bipolar, she felt herself being chased by a person, in her imagination, she ran, she took the stairs to climb to the roof of the hotel, she opened the tank hatch, she threw herself in, she undressed inside and drowned out of fatigue. Sad ending.
This is just theory, maybe Lam had anxiety. We all have that about how we feel in our environment. Making gestures she could of been thinking about somthing like a hypothetical scenario, maybe somthing emotionally intense and immulating the thought that was focused on? Going back and forth pushing buttons. But her getting in the lid and drowned is anyone's guess. Or was there someone there?
The Cecil Hotel on Skid Row - staying there is like committing suicide; if you want to get robbed, raped, and murdered, go stay at a flophouse type hotel in the Skid Row area. Dangerous criminals will attack you, guaranteed. I once traveled to Skid Row back in 1980 and three thugs chased after me aiming to rob me. I outran them and ran across a cop car. Thousands of criminals populate the Skid Row area in Los Angeles.
@@wg5477 i watched with my family very interesting documentary I honestly feel a bit depressed myself for elisa’s death i just wonder if it’s possible if her death could’ve been prevented? What do you think? Do you think she could’ve been saved and gotten help?
@@victorrodriguez6608 it's on Netflix called Crime Scene: The Vanishing at the Cecil Hotel. But basically, guests were complaining about the water being brown and gross. Maintenance guy went up to check the water tank, he found the hatch was already open and he found Elisa in there. He closed it then reported to his manager. Then when police officers went there, the lid was closed (because maintenance guy closed it) but they didn't properly disclose that to the media hence all the confusion and conspiracy theories
I saw this story on television, I wonder how she ended up dead. It’s so very sad. My guess is on the second theory because if the lid was off when she got in how did the lid get back on after she was already in. They said the light was on
I swear having a diagnosis mental health problem, no matter the severity or lack there of works AGAINST you. If anything happens to you it's the FIRST thing that is brought to the forefront. That video in my opinion doesn't prove she was having an "episode" at all. The elevator wouldn't close and it appears this was the first time it had happened to her, hence why she was hitting on buttons and testing the doors. She absolutely could have been in real danger. We don't know who she ran into AFTER she got off the elevator or if she really was trying to get away from someone. Why does her mental health have to take presidency over someone attacking her?. She would have had to have some lifting power to maneuver that lid above her head. The maintainance worker sounds like he had every rhyme and reason for her situation and how she could've did this and that, but is it feasible. I don't believe she went thru all that work to conceal her body just to end her life. It all sounds absurd and likely impossible. In Asian culture they believe in putting people to rest properly and she would have wanted her family to do so at the very least. I don't believe this was a supernatural occurrence either. A human being of flesh and blood hurt her and placed her into that tank, end of story. This happened to a young Asian exchange student at an elite college as well and had they not had a bunch of cameras showing that she never left that building the poor girl would have never been found, after a creep coworker m*rdered her and placed her body in walls of a science lab that had been closed off for some time.
I think I know what happened she didn't take her meds and kept seeing things and she thought she was climbing into the swimming pool ladder but she was really climbing up the ladder to the water tank ( she thought she was going in a pool)
Hello? Why is everyone forgetting that the maintenance worker FOUND HER not the LAPD! He had to have PUT THE TANK LID BACK ON! (Did they ask HIM?) I think she had a psychotic episode, was paranoid from not taking her meds, climbed up several ladders, maybe thinking she was being chased by the unknown presence that chased her into the elevator and jumped into the tank not realizing she couldn't get out. She treaded water and realized her clothes were weighing her down so she took them off...and drowned by accident. So sad.
The manager at the time is liar she gets a thrill of everything that’s going on at the hotel. If she cares and it is true that the victim had maniac phase then why didn’t she call for help.
What would that accomplish? Being “crazy” isn’t illegal. The police couldn’t have done a thing unless she was directly threatening to harm someone or herself. Walking around in a delusional state isn’t enough to be committed.
This is clear and easy, unfortunately this type of stuff happens a lot. By the video provided to us it’s completely tampered by someone before it was investigated by the police. Or even the police knows stuff that they don’t want us to know. But in the video it’s clear she was drugged. My guess is there is people in the hotel or just in the area that monitors single women to drug them up and rape them. By her reaction at the elevator it looks like she was clearly not her self. In the video she also seems to be interacting with someone. If the elevator wasn’t moving it’s probably because someone is pressing the button. She ended going with them and the rest is history. The person who killed her knew people if not that person worked for the hotel and tampered with the video. Cmon we have no video of her entering the front office and going to the 5th floor. We have no video evidence of her going up the the final floor. And walking up to the roof top.
It's already solved lol maintenance guy found the lid open and found her body. Due to Elisa's sister disclosing more information about Elisa's past episodes, this is not uncommon for her.
That’s not strange moments 🤦♂️ she’s checking the sensors.... as the doors wouldn’t shut... and I think she was killed and someone must of k so the in and out of the hotel... look how much history that had, I’m surprised why it wasn’t shut down ffs
Two things about the elevator footage. The first thing, when she walks in and pushes all the buttons, and then stands up, the door starts to close but then stops. Second, she is wearing some kind of flip-flop or sandal, they are black. You can see the straps across her feet.
Not if she didn't want to be found, schedule some blog post so mom and dad think she ran away then jump into the tank and some poor maintance smuck that came back to finish work closed the lid and took the ladder the next day.... she goes from taking herself out to a opportunity of potentially sparing her parents the embarrassment of a child that chose to give up on life
It's been sold to a group from NY for 80 million. Main Street LA is worth 200 million; but skid row cuts that amount big time!! They plan on revamping it and cleaning up skid row...so they said.
@@joanbenson4381 given all the things that have happened in the hotel, i feel it shouldn’t be in operation. It should be more like a cultural or historical site not a hotel because too much bad stuff has happened. You’d think Elisa Lam would have been the final straw in that the hotel seems more of a liability
My working theory is that I totally believe now that she committed suicide. She was on meds for depression/bipolar. She was not the partying kind, no, but as a detective stated, it's not a leap to think a 21 year old would "experiment" while travelling on own and feeling freedom. However, I think she would have perhaps had a couple of drinks, nothing major. It mixed with her meds, which she wouldn of have predicted, she hallucinated, became paranoid, it propelled the meds. She was pushing the buttons and so forth yes, because she was kind of out of it then. There was not another person's foot outside the elevator, that was hers...if you watch it again it's easy to tell it's her turning a bit weirdly. The time stamp is "off" because it's such an old crap system that it is just totally wonky. I do no believe anyone messed with the video. It's just a terribly old and degraded system. She follows the stairs up to the roof. The door was not locked nor alarmed. This is denied by the Manager but we'll get to that. She goes up, like many people have before her, where they met, smoked, drank, graffittied, etc. She was going to jump. She was ending her life. But that jump is deemed perhaps ugly, crass, not peaceful. She saw the stairs to the water tanks, curious. Goes up. Lifts the lid. Decides to strip and leave the world as she entered it; nude. Thinks she won't be found for a long time if ever. Dives in. Drowns. The cover is off. She goes missing. Hell bent to find her. Media and detectives everywhere. The Manager says to the Maintenance guy, hey, go up and check the roof before sh** hits. He does. He sees the cover off, puts it back on without thinking or looking. Leaves. The Manager arms the alarm and then states it is always armed. She lied about this. She is a Manager of the Cecil for 10 years and knows what it is like there with tenants. That's what I believe occurred. Nothing to do with the LAPD, conpiracies, blah blah. No. It is a case of actual simplicity. It is still a tragic loss and very sad for so many. I do believe she is at peace. Love to her and her family and everyone who cared so much as try and help. I do not mean to offend anyone, this is only my theory. But I feel strongly that the easiest and simplest path on this is the answer. May Elisa truly rest in peace.
So the hotel was able to get out of the lawsuit in which she couldn't have done this to herself but in the case of her death she did do it to herself, what??
When they said her roommates complained about her behavior (what kind of hotel puts complete strangers in a room together, outside of hostels?), along with see her behavior on the elevator, I was thinking she was either bipolar, or drugged. She must have stopped taking her meds & was in a manic state. I wonder if someone from Maintenance, closed the tank lid, shortly after she died, but before her body started to smell. I can’t believe it took 2 weeks for her body to contaminate the water for guests. I’m guessing she was hallucinating, though I don’t know what, & she stripped down, & got in, possibly unable to get herself out before drowning. Did they find the clothes she was wearing that day? What did the post-mortem blogs say? Maybe she wrote & scheduled the blog posts during her manic phase, & while it seems strange to us, scheduling them so far in advance, it made perfect sense in her manic head. The similarities between Dark Waters, & Elisa’s death is definitely very erie.
@@missdeejay IMO, it seems like that night the police sent a chopper to provide 'daylight' for the roof search, that they would have seen the hatch on that water tower was open.
She was not murdered sence she did not take enough of her meds she had started to see and hear thing that are not real and she can run and try to hide so when she got onto the roof she thought that the water tank would be her place to hide, and she was found without clothing because it was to cold, it was also a mistake the lid was off the tank
Me too. I live in Mexico, a land where not many people catch a break, and this guy was moderately successful with his music. Come to think it all came to an end because of people pointing fingers at him.
Right?? All those people who threw those accusations at him didn't even reach out or apologize once it came out it was a consequence of Elisa not taking her medications :/
I'm willing to bet she was subjected to some kind of frequency manipulation. The cia loves testing on unwitting subjects. This fits the bill. There's a low vibration frequency that induce fear and hysteria. Mountain Climbers often experience this
When the police chopper provided the 'daylight' for the roof search, it seems like they would have noticed the hatch to the water tower open....if it was open at that time!! imo
@@WalupjakeThey are pitch black inside. So unless You shine I light in there it would be hard to see anything in the water. Use to have tanks like that on our farm. In the middle of the day to check level we'd have to shine a light
I saw on some theory video on her a few years that someone said that there was an unseen footage that was only out for a day that after the elevator footage there was another footage that same day she died of a guy in a suit walking in the elevator or elevator area where she was apparently can anyone confirm this? People apparently said that there was another unseen footage of elisa lam in the hotel and that the media removed it like a day later
Not unusual to wave hand to try to get elevator doors to work. Not unusual to get in and out. If elevator is not working. It is called being impatient and pressing too many buttons. But, what is unusual is that she went up to top floor. They should have fingerprinted the doors of the stairwells and find out who used the access to the roof through the stairwell after her. But, they didn't really do much of an investigation. They knew Cecil had video, but they waited days to watch it. A hotel that has thousands of 911 calls to it every year... police knew exactly what type of security the building had. Why not look at footage immediately? Lol How does manager explain not bringing video to police asap? Doesn't.
The problem in bipolar, as I understand it, is that people do not sense such intensity of experience when they are on their meds. She was young, she went out into the world to explore. It's just tragic. She was a very smart young woman. She was just young, 21, and I am guessing wanted to explore the world without her meds. I feel sad for her family too. It seemed clear to me when I saw the elevator footage she was having a manic episode which had intensified into psychosis, which is not that unusual with types of bipolar. Later that was confirmed by the paranoia witnessed at the hotel (that they told us about at the end of the series). Just tragic. The whole environment was filled with crazy, she just didn't stick out that much in downtown LA/Skid Row. She was right when she said, "I'm crazy, but LA is crazy too!" (my paraphrase from memory).
Plp ask questions about how she could fall or jump or whatever to the tank... The asking questions, how she could close the the tank behind her.... Basing on these questions many scenarios are been developed... How, where, when she died... She was found in body of water... Closed... My question is DID SHE HAD WATER IN HER LUNGS???? THEN WE KNOW WHERE SHE DIED. INSIDE OR OUT SIDE THE TANK. THEN WE CAN FOKUS SEARCH ON AREA WE ARE LOOKING FOR EVIDENCE!!!!!!
Yeah she could've just jumped but not if she didn't want to be found, she sees the tank with a ladder left by maintance staff, schedules some blog post so mom and dad think she ran away then jumps into the tank and some poor maintance smuck that came back to finish work closed the lid and took the ladder back in the next day.... she goes from taking herself out publicly to an opportunity of potentially sparing her parents the embarrassment of a child that chose to give up on life
Its not a mystery, she went nuts, spoke to invisible people who told her to go to the roof and climb into a water tank... Insanity is science, not supernatural...
Aside from having sympathy for Elisa, I also feel bad for the residents at the hotel who drank/tasted the water that her body contaminated...
Exactly fair enough they noticed the colour. But to complain it had a funny taste 🤮
@imisstypewriters I have no idea, I was wondering the same thing..

Regardless of this story::
You MUST stay on your mental health drugs when prescribed.
True. And the withdrawal symptoms if you stop suddenly can make anyone crazy. Especially when taking heavy doses like Elisa was doing.
Agree. I remember when I was younger and prescribed the anti-depressant Paxil for about 6 months and then suddenly stopped taking it and wow. I was crying all the time, having like these weird brain zaps, felt like I had the flu.

@@jackcoogan310 it was trash tbh loads of youtube conspiracy theorists sharing there opinions kind of makes it out to be it was a tragic accident
Same
Re-upload? Most of these questions are answered in the new Netflix documentary. Her phone was found and the lid was open when she was found.
Elisa pressed all the buttons and yet, the elevator doors never closed but after she left the elevator the doors closed, I find that really weird. The way Elisa was acting was very creepy, the way she moved her hands, she also looked scared.
She pressed the door hold button. And 1 min time was cut from the tape
She pressed the door hold button
she had bipolar disorder and always stopped taking her meds, I just finished the series on netflix!
HER autopsy came out clean, there were no drugs, no rape, no bruises
So I wanna know how did she end up dead in the water tank 🤷🏿♂️
@@jackpotdadon Elisa Lam's sister spoke with the authorities months later, Elisa suffered from paranoia and type 1 bipolar disorder, in addition to not taking her medications, it was said that while staying at the hotel she had erratic and strange behavior. and referring to the water tank her body was found without any alteration which was very rare and there was no access to the roof above, unless you went up some small stairs!
@@jackpotdadon SOLVED- Her glasses fell off when she looked in the tank out of simple
curiosity. She got in to get them after realizing she needed them to climb down fire escape ladder. Were the glasses found in the tank?
people stop blaming everything on mental illness !!!
It's no mystery. People wanted it to be. The Netflix series shows all.
she was probably buggin out and thought the best place to hide was in the water tanks.
No it wasn’t. She was off her meds and accidentally drowned in the tank.
Bipolar wouldn’t make you decide climb in a water tank like its crazy people actually believe that.
@@danlc3520 watch the documentary she thought someone was chasing her because she was hallucinating and was trying to hide
now you’re just being dumb.... CLOTHES OFF, HEAVY LID??, AND LAYING ON HER BACK ?

@@elspagheti Who she was affraid of on the video
Then why would she take off her clothes inside tank?
@@bcvtz5300 Watch the Netflix Doc they cover it. To swim/float longer.
The full story was explained on Netflix. She suffered from Bipolar Disorder, and wasn't taking her meds. She hallucinated that someone was chasing her, and she got up to the roof by a fire escape, and got into the water tank to hide. She couldn't get out, and subsequently drowned as a result. The tank lid was open when a maintenance man was looking into the problem with the water, and saw Elisa Lam's body and he closed the lid.
WTH u talking about ?
@@tamathawalden2037 I thought it was obvious what I'm talking about. If you're following the thread and saw the video that is being discussed.
@@tamathawalden2037 There is a documentary on Netflix that goes over all of this.
I wonder if anyone was extremely sick when drinking the water and or bathing in it.
I think she was having a psychotic episode, but someone was taking advantage of that. I still think someone was involved.. It’s not a crazy idea, she was very open to meeting new people and that hotel was literally home to serial killers.
Wrong. She killed herself. Stop making things up because it doesn't fit your narrative.
@@stuartperry1138 nah im not making it up, everyone has said the exact same things as me but go off
They said that there was a Chopper flying over head along with the body sniffing dogs . Why didn't the choppers see that the lid was open ?
Thats the strange thing. If you check the rooftop there is not really anything on there besides the water tanks so how could they possibly have missed an open water tank lid. It just seems impossible
After watching the documentary she definitely died on an accident & was having a psychological breakdown and strong illusions. The two big facts being ....the movie she use to watch as a kid about a woman in a lift who then gets kn the roof water tanks that's too much of a consequence and the fact her parents said she had very strong illusions and would become very delusional and violent
It's not a mystery. She was in a manic state. My wife has bipolar disorder and when she's manic she does some weird things. I feel bad for her family that people want to keep making a mockery of her death.
This story is interesting
That hotel is demonic. Like, seriously.
It’s important to note that when the police got there they found the lid closed. However, this was done by the maintenance worker once he discovered the dead body, so the worker had originally found the lid open and when he saw the dead body he closed it before going back down to report it. It is also worth noting that the police did do a search of the entire hotel including the rooftop with dogs but completely missed out the tankers - even though apparently helicopters were also used in the search.
The Netflix documentary explains it all in the last episode the best which i totally agree. The only mystery is what happened to her phone, but if she was unstable, she could have done anything with it herself.
Whoever murdered her obviously took it. They could've tracked it if they weren't covering it up
She was murdered..
Mystery solved, old news, let's put this nightmare to rest
Extremely strange case
SOLVED - Take this video down. Stop spreading false info. This case is solved. Watch the documentary on Netflix.
RIP Elisa Lam
Lol netflix says it, it must be true right? Her murder was obviously covered up, and piss poorly at that
@@darkerstar911 Its ok I get it, I love a good conspiracy too. No Netflix isn’t always right but give me your mountain of evidence that contradicts everything said by the people there and the “UA-cam detectives” who were reporting on it at the time. Ignorance at its finest
@@025973 I don't think you get anything.
@@darkerstar911 Hahahaha you’re honestly laughable. Full of shit and can’t even structure a defence for his side of the debate. Weak
Wouldn't Elisa figure that she sounded the fire alarm when she went out on the roof? And then climbed inside the water tank to hide? When she heard sirens, which is common in a city with 15 million people she "hid". She was hiding in the elevator on video to support my theory. Her hands are describing the elevator to someone in the hall who most likely informed her to use the stairwell outside. I think she was on the top floor coming from the room she was relocated to.
She was off her medication it ain't a mystery
The part where it looks like she copied the movie is crazy
You guys repeatedly the fallacy that the lid was on the tank. It wasn't.
I am so confused,
1) they say the footage were edited because there are some stranger pass by and already identified not a suspect
2) footage meant for public to help identified Elisa Lam
if they could edit out the suspect and edit the footage time, and even slow down the footage
Why don’t they remove the additional chunk of empty lif scene? Why don’t they just remove the additional scene after Elisa left the lif
I had a feeling they trying to plant some narrative in us
If we feel it’s horror it because the director want us to feel that way
I feel really bad for the maintenance man who was inspecting the tank after complaints of low pressure and water having a strange color, he thought it was just plumbing issues but instead he found a dead body inside the water tank.
That must've been really traumatizing.
Before watching Netflix I thought she was murdered & after watching it I strongly believe she was murdered.....just my opinion.
Something does not seat right with the keys to the rooftop and elevator situations. Then her lungs was not filled with fluid similar to drowning. Something just is not right.
And video footage being altered and LAPD is known for covering up murders...
You can believe what you want, but there's no evidence whatsoever supporting foul play. There are other ways to go to the rooftop, and she could die from hypothermia rather than drowning. It was February in LA.
Doesn't sit right with me either. Many people believe what they hear.
Elisa was bipolar, she felt herself being chased by a person, in her imagination, she ran, she took the stairs to climb to the roof of the hotel, she opened the tank hatch, she threw herself in, she undressed inside and drowned out of fatigue.
Sad ending.
If so, why was the hatch closedwhen police discovered her body in the tank?
@@horrificscene actually it was opened when the maintenance man discovered her and he closed it back up when the police arrived.
@@horrificscene probably closed because of the gruesome scene the maintenance saw
This is just theory, maybe Lam had anxiety. We all have that about how we feel in our environment. Making gestures she could of been thinking about somthing like a hypothetical scenario, maybe somthing emotionally intense and immulating the thought that was focused on? Going back and forth pushing buttons. But her getting in the lid and drowned is anyone's guess. Or was there someone there?
Do your research
Netflix has a documentary called Crime Scene: The Vanishing at the Cecil Hotel. The first season has 4 episodes. Elisa Lam is in it.
The real elisa lam?
@@pokemonfanatic45 Yes
The Cecil Hotel on Skid Row - staying there is like committing suicide; if you want to get robbed, raped, and murdered, go stay at a flophouse type hotel in the Skid Row area. Dangerous criminals will attack you, guaranteed. I once traveled to Skid Row back in 1980 and three thugs chased after me aiming to rob me. I outran them and ran across a cop car. Thousands of criminals populate the Skid Row area in Los Angeles.
This is not still a mystery, it has been solved, multiple times over.
Really? I’d like to know
@@austinsy8056 “Cecil Hotel” just came out on Netflix.
Oh really? Please enlighten us with your knowledge
@@wg5477 i watched with my family very interesting documentary I honestly feel a bit depressed myself for elisa’s death i just wonder if it’s possible if her death could’ve been prevented? What do you think? Do you think she could’ve been saved and gotten help?
@@victorrodriguez6608 it's on Netflix called Crime Scene: The Vanishing at the Cecil Hotel. But basically, guests were complaining about the water being brown and gross. Maintenance guy went up to check the water tank, he found the hatch was already open and he found Elisa in there. He closed it then reported to his manager. Then when police officers went there, the lid was closed (because maintenance guy closed it) but they didn't properly disclose that to the media hence all the confusion and conspiracy theories
Rip This story is crazy
I saw this story on television, I wonder how she ended up dead. It’s so very sad. My guess is on the second theory because if the lid was off when she got in how did the lid get back on after she was already in. They said the light was on
Watch the documentary, the lid was open when her body was found, it was an accident
I swear having a diagnosis mental health problem, no matter the severity or lack there of works AGAINST you. If anything happens to you it's the FIRST thing that is brought to the forefront. That video in my opinion doesn't prove she was having an "episode" at all. The elevator wouldn't close and it appears this was the first time it had happened to her, hence why she was hitting on buttons and testing the doors. She absolutely could have been in real danger. We don't know who she ran into AFTER she got off the elevator or if she really was trying to get away from someone. Why does her mental health have to take presidency over someone attacking her?. She would have had to have some lifting power to maneuver that lid above her head. The maintainance worker sounds like he had every rhyme and reason for her situation and how she could've did this and that, but is it feasible. I don't believe she went thru all that work to conceal her body just to end her life. It all sounds absurd and likely impossible. In Asian culture they believe in putting people to rest properly and she would have wanted her family to do so at the very least. I don't believe this was a supernatural occurrence either. A human being of flesh and blood hurt her and placed her into that tank, end of story. This happened to a young Asian exchange student at an elite college as well and had they not had a bunch of cameras showing that she never left that building the poor girl would have never been found, after a creep coworker m*rdered her and placed her body in walls of a science lab that had been closed off for some time.
I think I know what happened she didn't take her meds and kept seeing things and she thought she was climbing into the swimming pool ladder but she was really climbing up the ladder to the water tank ( she thought she was going in a pool)
I think that some of her behaviorisms in the elevator points to feeling like her life was in danger
Or having a manic episode
Looks more like paranoia to me
She was a danger to herself, due to not taking her meds.
Hello? Why is everyone forgetting that the maintenance worker FOUND HER not the LAPD! He had to have PUT THE TANK LID BACK ON! (Did they ask HIM?) I think she had a psychotic episode, was paranoid from not taking her meds, climbed up several ladders, maybe thinking she was being chased by the unknown presence that chased her into the elevator and jumped into the tank not realizing she couldn't get out. She treaded water and realized her clothes were weighing her down so she took them off...and drowned by accident. So sad.
The manager at the time is liar she gets a thrill of everything that’s going on at the hotel. If she cares and it is true that the victim had maniac phase then why didn’t she call for help.
Probably the dumbest comment of the day.
What would that accomplish? Being “crazy” isn’t illegal. The police couldn’t have done a thing unless she was directly threatening to harm someone or herself. Walking around in a delusional state isn’t enough to be committed.
This is clear and easy, unfortunately this type of stuff happens a lot. By the video provided to us it’s completely tampered by someone before it was investigated by the police. Or even the police knows stuff that they don’t want us to know.
But in the video it’s clear she was drugged. My guess is there is people in the hotel or just in the area that monitors single women to drug them up and rape them. By her reaction at the elevator it looks like she was clearly not her self. In the video she also seems to be interacting with someone. If the elevator wasn’t moving it’s probably because someone is pressing the button. She ended going with them and the rest is history.
The person who killed her knew people if not that person worked for the hotel and tampered with the video. Cmon we have no video of her entering the front office and going to the 5th floor. We have no video evidence of her going up the the final floor. And walking up to the roof top.
...there is the story of the person that killed her was the son of some high profile character with lapd connections so it will remain unsolved...
@@ZarahUhl-Wagner I am a callous skeptic.
I KNOW that you cannot know this
🤔
That's ridiculous lmao, you've been watching too many movies, watch the documentary
It's already solved lol maintenance guy found the lid open and found her body. Due to Elisa's sister disclosing more information about Elisa's past episodes, this is not uncommon for her.
That’s not strange moments 🤦♂️ she’s checking the sensors.... as the doors wouldn’t shut... and I think she was killed and someone must of k so the in and out of the hotel... look how much history that had, I’m surprised why it wasn’t shut down ffs
Two things about the elevator footage. The first thing, when she walks in and pushes all the buttons, and then stands up, the door starts to close but then stops. Second, she is wearing some kind of flip-flop or sandal, they are black. You can see the straps across her feet.
I'm just a little curious about what you're implying... I'm just here to get different point of views!
She could have jumped off the building if she went up that high to commit suicide. Those tanks were twelve feet up. The lids were HEAVY
Not if she didn't want to be found, schedule some blog post so mom and dad think she ran away then jump into the tank and some poor maintance smuck that came back to finish work closed the lid and took the ladder the next day.... she goes from taking herself out to a opportunity of potentially sparing her parents the embarrassment of a child that chose to give up on life
No, she didn't wanna commit suicide, she wanted to hide from her hallucinations, and accidentally died
Yet she manage to get into a 10 ft tank with no ladder lol
I’m surprised that given the things that happened at the Cecil, that there hasn’t been a lot of call for closing its operation
Nothing is the fault of the establishment. The actions of others aren't the problem of the business.
It's been sold to a group from NY for 80 million. Main Street LA is worth 200 million; but skid row cuts that amount big time!! They plan on revamping it and cleaning up skid row...so they said.
@@joanbenson4381 given all the things that have happened in the hotel, i feel it shouldn’t be in operation. It should be more like a cultural or historical site not a hotel because too much bad stuff has happened. You’d think Elisa Lam would have been the final straw in that the hotel seems more of a liability
My working theory is that I totally believe now that she committed suicide. She was on meds for depression/bipolar. She was not the partying kind, no, but as a detective stated, it's not a leap to think a 21 year old would "experiment" while travelling on own and feeling freedom. However, I think she would have perhaps had a couple of drinks, nothing major. It mixed with her meds, which she wouldn of have predicted, she hallucinated, became paranoid, it propelled the meds. She was pushing the buttons and so forth yes, because she was kind of out of it then. There was not another person's foot outside the elevator, that was hers...if you watch it again it's easy to tell it's her turning a bit weirdly. The time stamp is "off" because it's such an old crap system that it is just totally wonky. I do no believe anyone messed with the video. It's just a terribly old and degraded system. She follows the stairs up to the roof. The door was not locked nor alarmed. This is denied by the Manager but we'll get to that. She goes up, like many people have before her, where they met, smoked, drank, graffittied, etc. She was going to jump. She was ending her life. But that jump is deemed perhaps ugly, crass, not peaceful. She saw the stairs to the water tanks, curious. Goes up. Lifts the lid. Decides to strip and leave the world as she entered it; nude. Thinks she won't be found for a long time if ever. Dives in. Drowns. The cover is off. She goes missing. Hell bent to find her. Media and detectives everywhere. The Manager says to the Maintenance guy, hey, go up and check the roof before sh** hits. He does. He sees the cover off, puts it back on without thinking or looking. Leaves. The Manager arms the alarm and then states it is always armed. She lied about this. She is a Manager of the Cecil for 10 years and knows what it is like there with tenants. That's what I believe occurred. Nothing to do with the LAPD, conpiracies, blah blah. No. It is a case of actual simplicity. It is still a tragic loss and very sad for so many. I do believe she is at peace. Love to her and her family and everyone who cared so much as try and help. I do not mean to offend anyone, this is only my theory. But I feel strongly that the easiest and simplest path on this is the answer. May Elisa truly rest in peace.
Nomatter what ever might be the reality behind the death..it will still be shuddersome and mysterious.
So the hotel was able to get out of the lawsuit in which she couldn't have done this to herself but in the case of her death she did do it to herself, what??
There was an earlier (2002) Japanese version of Dark Water by the same name.
Exactly the only thing I can think of was she was trying to rein-act the scene of dark water .
When they said her roommates complained about her behavior (what kind of hotel puts complete strangers in a room together, outside of hostels?), along with see her behavior on the elevator, I was thinking she was either bipolar, or drugged. She must have stopped taking her meds & was in a manic state.
I wonder if someone from Maintenance, closed the tank lid, shortly after she died, but before her body started to smell. I can’t believe it took 2 weeks for her body to contaminate the water for guests. I’m guessing she was hallucinating, though I don’t know what, & she stripped down, & got in, possibly unable to get herself out before drowning.
Did they find the clothes she was wearing that day? What did the post-mortem blogs say? Maybe she wrote & scheduled the blog posts during her manic phase, & while it seems strange to us, scheduling them so far in advance, it made perfect sense in her manic head.
The similarities between Dark Waters, & Elisa’s death is definitely very erie.
The clothes were found inside the tank although her body was found naked
The maintenance guy said the lid was OPEN when he found her body.
@@missdeejay IMO, it seems like that night the police sent a chopper to provide 'daylight' for the roof search, that they would have seen the hatch on that water tower was open.
@@missdeejay that’s not what they said in the video.
@@nikki9125 watch the whole series. Maintenance man said it was open.
That's scary ever since I heard of herive been searching her on safari
She was not murdered sence she did not take enough of her meds she had started to see and hear thing that are not real and she can run and try to hide so when she got onto the roof she thought that the water tank would be her place to hide, and she was found without clothing because it was to cold, it was also a mistake the lid was off the tank
I feel sorry for morbid.
Me too. I live in Mexico, a land where not many people catch a break, and this guy was moderately successful with his music. Come to think it all came to an end because of people pointing fingers at him.
Right?? All those people who threw those accusations at him didn't even reach out or apologize once it came out it was a consequence of Elisa not taking her medications :/
Same as Dark Water movie wayback 2005
I'm willing to bet she was subjected to some kind of frequency manipulation. The cia loves testing on unwitting subjects. This fits the bill. There's a low vibration frequency that induce fear and hysteria. Mountain Climbers often experience this
Just seen the programme of Ellis's lamb and wondered why the water tanks went checked when she disappeared I would have
Maintenance could of closed the water tank lid days after she got in and not noticed if she was in there. If the lid was already open that is.
@@thegoodguy44 i watched the documentary tonight and so that whole thing about the lid being closed was a lie? Am i right?
Yeah there's no way you don't notice. Body in water .
When the police chopper provided the 'daylight' for the roof search, it seems like they would have noticed the hatch to the water tower open....if it was open at that time!! imo
@@WalupjakeThey are pitch black inside. So unless You shine I light in there it would be hard to see anything in the water. Use to have tanks like that on our farm. In the middle of the day to check level we'd have to shine a light

So, she is accidentaly dead inside a closed water tank?
It. Wasn’t. Closed.
@@johncampbell691 I know. But weird that the LAPD helicopter did not see that
Murdered
The manager there is a ditz and she just not living in reality
Man this to crazy someone killed her and they covering it up but who.
So that's why guests complained of foul smelling and weird tasting water..🥴
This turns out not be a mystery at all. I’m disappointed. It’s just a sad case.
But who closed the tank
The tank wasn't closed, it was found opened
The maintenance guy who found her said it was open
Rip elisa lam
Happy chinese new years 🕊
I saw on some theory video on her a few years that someone said that there was an unseen footage that was only out for a day that after the elevator footage there was another footage that same day she died of a guy in a suit walking in the elevator or elevator area where she was apparently can anyone confirm this? People apparently said that there was another unseen footage of elisa lam in the hotel and that the media removed it like a day later
Not unusual to wave hand to try to get elevator doors to work. Not unusual to get in and out. If elevator is not working. It is called being impatient and pressing too many buttons. But, what is unusual is that she went up to top floor. They should have fingerprinted the doors of the stairwells and find out who used the access to the roof through the stairwell after her. But, they didn't really do much of an investigation. They knew Cecil had video, but they waited days to watch it. A hotel that has thousands of 911 calls to it every year... police knew exactly what type of security the building had. Why not look at footage immediately? Lol
How does manager explain not bringing video to police asap? Doesn't.
I watched a doc where they couldn't find her at all... Well that's good, the family have her back...💯
In the doc they couldn’t find her?
Bruh I watched the new movie about this case last night and you posted this vid today lol
The elevator game.
why do they need two guys to deliver a small box containing books?
You really wanna walk alone in skidrow?
The problem in bipolar, as I understand it, is that people do not sense such intensity of experience when they are on their meds. She was young, she went out into the world to explore. It's just tragic. She was a very smart young woman. She was just young, 21, and I am guessing wanted to explore the world without her meds. I feel sad for her family too. It seemed clear to me when I saw the elevator footage she was having a manic episode which had intensified into psychosis, which is not that unusual with types of bipolar. Later that was confirmed by the paranoia witnessed at the hotel (that they told us about at the end of the series). Just tragic. The whole environment was filled with crazy, she just didn't stick out that much in downtown LA/Skid Row. She was right when she said, "I'm crazy, but LA is crazy too!" (my paraphrase from memory).
this story still is very confusing. but I will be covering this story and my theories on this on my UA-cam channel this week :)
Plp ask questions about how she could fall or jump or whatever to the tank... The asking questions, how she could close the the tank behind her.... Basing on these questions many scenarios are been developed... How, where, when she died... She was found in body of water... Closed...
My question is DID SHE HAD WATER IN HER LUNGS????
THEN WE KNOW WHERE SHE DIED. INSIDE OR OUT SIDE THE TANK. THEN WE CAN FOKUS SEARCH ON AREA WE ARE LOOKING FOR EVIDENCE!!!!!!
Watch the Netflix documentary. It's very good
Nah watched the documentary last night on Netflix she wasn't taking her medication and had a psychotic break poor thing
Yeah she could've just jumped but not if she didn't want to be found, she sees the tank with a ladder left by maintance staff, schedules some blog post so mom and dad think she ran away then jumps into the tank and some poor maintance smuck that came back to finish work closed the lid and took the ladder back in the next day.... she goes from taking herself out publicly to an opportunity of potentially sparing her parents the embarrassment of a child that chose to give up on life
How can she close the hatch in the water tank 🤔
It was open
@@reema8006 I know. But weird that the LAPD helicopter did not see that
How the hell did she end up on a water tank??
It's Richard Rodriguez it says he stays in the hotel
Its not a mystery, she went nuts, spoke to invisible people who told her to go to the roof and climb into a water tank... Insanity is science, not supernatural...
"nuts" is insensitive. She had a manic episode from an illness
Yep that's what happened, people are just trying to spin it. And the lid could have been closed by wind.
