The young man, who could not move away quickly enough as the lift jerked upwards, is caught between the floor of the lift and the top of the door, where he is crushed to death.
The video footage is from a surveillance camera fixed inside the malfunctioning lift at Huaqiao University, in the city of Xiamen in south-east China's Fujian Province.
Rescue workers rushed to free the young man's body, but he was pronounced dead at the scene, having suffocating because his lungs were crushed and he was unable to breathe.

The fact that it is a slow death is what makes it worse. A quick crush or getting split in half causes a quick dead. He is just chilling there slowly losing his life. Bet he can hear all the people talking behind him.

Upon hearing of the victim's death, the family was absolutely crushed. They questioned the slow response by the fire department, who they accused of having more pressing issues. The lead investigator quipped that he thinks everyone just needs time to decompress.

At least he was able to iron out his family differences before suffering this crushing tragedy while also avoiding too many bruised egos. It's too bad that he couldn't elevate himself before this weighty tragedy.

To elevate the sprits of his family, they were informed by the school that he crushed his Calculus exam the day before. Life (and death) has its ups and downs.

Is it that hard to just avoid China entirely? I have zero plans of ever going to India or Brazil either for that matter.
EDIT: Nor Russia for good measure.

Did you live in a metropolis or something of that sort with extremely busy roads? That makes no sense.

Was the elevator lowered manually somehow at the end? eg. handcrank at the motor location? The lowering was too precisely controlled and the elevator definitely does NOT have a stepper motor.
