Young Boy Gets Trapped in an Elevator in China After Playing a Prank and Urinating on the Control Buttons

Going up and down by taking several flights of stairs can definitely take up a lot of your time. Walking from one floor to another can also be inconvenient, especially if you have hands full of groceries, you are with your child or you have sore legs. Luckily, a lot of buildings have elevators to conveniently take you from the ground floor to your destination.

Elevator rides do not last long. Since it is a small space and is usually a crowded area, people should always practice elevator etiquette. Simple things like moving to the back so other people can also board the elevator or be the button pusher if you are near the buttons are common practices that people should follow. We need to do our part and be courteous and considerate of others.

This young boy from China learned his lesson the hard way when he tried to play a prank but became a victim of his own antic and getting trapped in an elevator.

He lets out a stream of urine directly on the buttons, zips up his pants, and exit the lift as if nothing happened. However, when the elevator reaches the floor, the problem started: the doors just slightly open and shutdowns immediately.
