Apple's 5th avenue store elevator gets stuck

My sister was stuck in that elevator. She was one of the group. She has a movie from the inside.

Stuck in a glass elevator for all that time.........phew.

Hey, that reminds me, did anyone else fry ants under a magnifying glass as kid ??

Apparently the elevator is only rated for 8 people max, or 1 G5 desktop.

for what it's worth, I've taken other hydraulic-lift elevators - they're particularly popular in Europe where it's easier to put the machinery in the basement in older buildings, vs. gutting the upper floors for traditional cable-motors. The museum in Bristol, UK has one, for instance and it worked quite well - very elegant, in fact. I think it's just a matter of keeping the machinery maintained, and i can imagine the traffic cycles in the Apple Store putting a wee bit of strain on it.

They're lucky they got them out so fast.

The last thing Apple needed was a bunch of customers in the glass elevator with full bladders thanks to the water bottles.

If the glass starts to melt have everyone blow and then you will have a contemporary art version of the apple store...

wow

I wonder what Apple is doing to make those customers happy. I'd gladly take a quad tower maxed to the tilt, a dual cinema display, and other goodies to keep from tossing a lawsuit at them.

I heard the macbook pros can start a really good hot fire goin' strong and keep it goin with all that juice. iMacs are also pretty good for firewood, i mean ifiremacs

No, the glass won't burn.
It'll melt, and no one will be able to get out.
